I already need special approval from the brokerage to trade these products. Leveraged and inverse funds are primarily used to hedge risk and lower volatility. These new regulations will disadvantage smaller investors. Do you want us to return to "selling short" to achieve our goals? If so, that would entail a great deal more risk.
This is a prime example of regulatory
I getting tired of branches of government creating new ways of making life harder to get ahead. For retirement, short and long term investment and more. Every time something new trickles down to us common people to better ourselves you decide to regulate the hell of it. Making it harder to be able to do for myself and better protect my future outcome.
I understand that an unprecedented threat by regulators is being considered. The implications will be negative in a free market and this should not take place, I have been trading long and short term leveraged equities for many years, and feel it is my right to do so I know you can stop this intended regulations being considered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Thank you
I am an individual investor for more than 30 years. Inverse leveraged ETFs have played a major part in my success! I am conveniently able to hedge my portfolio from downturns. Without inverse ETFs I would have to take on unlimited risk by shorting.
I strongly discourage any effort to eliminate this valuable portfolio management tool!
I want to maintain my freedom to invest in stocks of MY choosing. I know what I am doing, been investing for 30 years
Every individual should be allowed to invest in their future in a
manner of free choice be it real estate or 401k , stocks or Cryptology , Silver or Gold ...
I have traded these leveraged and inverse funds for many years. They should be available to all not select few. The test is just another unnecessary bureaucratic hurdle for people who can read and understand the risk. These funds are useful in short term trading as an overnight or 2-3 day vehicle that can be used with less leverage than a futures contract. Your consideration appreciated.
i love the use of leveraged etfs. i find them much safer than trading individual stocks that can implode and never recover
As individuals and investors is a free market/country we should have the ability to invest in all security with in the stock market with out being restricted.
When you start regulating who can go into Casinos and Gamble then you can come after the stock market. Not Before!
