Leveraged ETFs are no more risky than options and can act as risk reduction and diversification as part of a larger strategy.
Allowing investors to buy single stocks is risky as well, why not ban buying those to protect investors?
It's ludicrous to expect return of any kind without risk, that is the name of the game.
Above all, people should be free to make their own investment
To whom it may concern, not sure why Im receiving this but I should be able to buy whatever I want with my money. I have been following the market for 20 years Not sure what the problem is but I control what I buy and sell. I understand leveraged funds and risks. This is very important for individuals to buy and sell. This is the stock market right? I use these to hedge my investments. Please
This is not right sounds like more of what happened at GameStop. Everyday in the market we find reasons that the US Stock Exchange is not a free market system. We need to go back to when the people made the exchange and the United States the most free nation in the world. But it was by the means being discussed today. The people will not stand for anymore rule bending that only prospers those
All Stocks, ETF's, Funds or other investments are all subject to investment risk regardless of there class or structure. The choice is mine when making investment choices and must not be subject to Regulator involvement. The rules now on investment trading are already restrictive to a large degree.
Where were the Regulators when my pension was frozen during Company bankruptcy. Please
I am an individual investor who has been investing in the stock market for over 40 years. I routinely utilize leveraged and inverse products to achieve my investment goals and hedge my investment risks. I am fully aware of the way in which these products operate and the risks inherent in utilizing them. My investment strategies would be severely compromised were these products no longer freely
I don't think it is fair to regulate inverse and leveraged funds, since I rely on these as an important strategy. Especially inverse funds gives a "common" investor the ability to profit if the market goes down.
I understand the risks, and I accept gains and losses, just as I do with purchasing stocks and bonds.
In a free market, it is important to allow the market (of
The government should not be adding more burdens/hurdles to managing ones finances. We do not need more red tape or more paternalism from the government preventing investors from having access to funds such as these. And given the risk of these funds are lower than a large number of stocks the investor might otherwise buy (or such legislation might drive more investors into options) this will
I (not regulators) know my financial situation, investment time horizon, and how I want to structure my portfolio to meet my financial goals. I should be able to choose investments that are right for me and my family without government interference.
Leveraged funds are an important component of how my portfolio is structured, and I shouldn't have to go through any special process like
I am opposed to FINRA restricting my ability as a private citizen to purchase securities that are currently available and may continue to be available to institutions. I doubt the funds would go away they would just be blocked for retail and available for insiders once again tipping the scales in favor of the market makers. These funds help to take positions without using margin or assuming
Hello, I am discouraged to know that there are regulations and restrictions being proposed that would severely hurt my investment strategy. Levered and inverse funds are very important to me and I strongly oppose such regulations and restrictions. Myself and my neighbors regardless of designation, education, or wealth should be allowed to choose for ourselves what risks we want to take. We are
