Please do not impose restrictions on my right to invest. All forms of investing involves risk. Investing in individual stocks is extremely risky. Knowing about these more complex products only comes with time and experienced investing. Therefore novice investors will not discover and invest in these type of investments. No need for additional regulations and creating new determinants and
Leveraged and inverse funds definitely have risk but so do any other stocks or funds. Limiting access to leveraged funds limits my ability to take advantage of broad market swings and shouldnt be limited to the privileged few. I have made money and lost money with leveraged funds so I know the risk. I dont want to lose the option. Thanks.
Public Investments should be available to the public according to their choice without restrictions. Out of the various Investments available, some choose the stock market understanding the risk and reward associated with it. Out of this only a small percentage of the people are involved in leveraged and inverse fund and they fully understand the added risks involved,
In this type of situation,
I am opposed to the proposed changes in investment regulations which would prevent or restrict investors from buying "complex products" such as leveraged and inverse funds. I am a 65 year old retiree and this would have a profoundly negative impact on my retirement savings. If you want to impose limits on investors prohibit Senators and Representatives from investing in stocks.
With stocks and bonds going down and higher inflation there is no alternative but to buy some inverse etf, gold and having cash. I understand that one can loose a lot with leveraged funds but in order to recover the losses, one can recover back some with leveraged funds when the market will go up again. Please allow the people the freedom to invest the way they want.
As of this date/ ProShares stock is around 23$. Like all stock-you may acknowledge that you can lose money. There should be an understanding that it is suggested that you limit your investment. You may want to request that ProShares send out a letter of understanding of what ProShares is all about and the that the possible investor check mark each paragraph that was read and hopefully
This comment is reference proposed FINRA Regulatory Notice # 22-08. I am against any regulation that limits my ability to invest in any mutual fund, ETF or stock. This includes mutual funds and ETFs that are leveraged or work inverse to a particular index. I am capable of understanding the risks, and rewards of these type investments. We do NOT need another regulation! Bill Hiemer
I oppose limitations to block or restrict my investing activities. All stocks have risk and if measures are sought to restrict a certain commodity then i say stop the whole global market trading as well. This is a gross overreach of FINRA to assume this is in the best interest of the investor. Tsla, amzn, nflz, fb, etc are significantly riskier than a leveraed etf based on the broad market.
Please do not impose more unnecessary burdensome regulations on ordinary investors who are just straightforward buying and selling leveraged funds like any other equity shares in other company stocks.
We sorely need more flexibility in negotiating with the current especially tough market environment as it is, in addition to having to deal with future impractical or feckless political/economic
We should have the freedom to choose the public investment by our own will that are right for ourselves. We shouldnt have to go through any special process before purchasing public securities including cryptocurrency funds. Its very convenient to be able to invest under one brokerage to diversify our portfolio such as stocks, mutual funds, ETFs and cryptocurrency.
