Reviewing and managing your investment account information is essential to ensure your funds were invested in line with your instructions and there were no unauthorized transactions. By organizing your investment records, you'll have information on hand when you need it, including when you file tax returns or if there are problems with your account.
I am opposed to the proposed regulations by FINRA regarding investing in leveraged and inverse ETF's. These ETF's allow me to invest during advancing and declining periods of the stock market. I do not appreciate regulators putting any restraints on my ability to do that. There are risks in any kind of investment and it is up to me to decide what risks I intend to take.
This is a outrageous and outright ridiculous proposal. There is no such thing as something being too complex for the ordinary trader. Especially nowadays with the internet and research materials available to everyone. You all just don't want the lower or middle class to be able to participate in the stock market. This is America and we are all free to invest in whatever we like with our
I should not have to go through any special process to invest in leverage ETFs. I have been investing for years and this is part of my investment strategy. This has worked well for me. Using leveraged ETFs is safer than buying individual stocks and provides a better return. It should be my choice as to what I invest my money in!
This does not need more big government! I'm a small-time investor, and I want to make my own investment decisions. Of course, all investing carries a risk - stocks, bonds, crypto, buying houses, etc etc.
These funds create an equal playing field for the small-time investors, not Wall Street. So please do not pass this. Thank-you.
All efforts need to be made to protect unexpecting investors from zero sum Ponzi/Pyramid/Greater Fool schemes like Crypto-"currencies"! => Why bitcoin is worse than a Madoff-style Ponzi scheme: https://www.ft.com/content/83a14261-598d-4601-87fc-5dde528b33d0
All efforts need to be made to separate legitimate longterm investing from short term, nanosecond gambling. The
I do not believe that regulation should restrict the buying and selling of leveraged equities and etf's. It is made completely clear the risks involved in these when they are purchased and we acknowledge those risks prior to the sale. All equities, stocks and other such items are a risk. We are adults and do not need legislation controlling where and how we invest our money.
The more rules the better on the Investment industry. Their only guiding principle is fleecing the flock of uninformed investors. No unproven 'vaporware' of 'investments' should be allowed without full SEC scrutiny. We do not need meme stocks, 'alternative' investments, gold, crypto and other risky investments with no underlying value to be
I completely disagree with the notion to take away people's rights to invest in products that level the playing field, make them money in good markets, and hedge their risk in poor markets. The stock market is a marketplace for everyone and people should continue to keep their rights to invest in what they want to in the public markets, without greater regulatory scrutiny. Thank you.
Restricting investments for individuals in any publicly traded security or fund/ETF should be forbidden. Who are the regulators that seem to think that they get to play "God" with my money. Exchange traded funds/ETF's, stocks all go thru rigorous disclosure requirements and clearly indicate there is "risk" of loss when investing. This is clearly
