I have been investing in the stock market for about 50 years now. I do like to use leveraged and inverse funds to maximize my profits no matter which direction the market is moving. I know and understand the risks involved with these funds, and I should not have to prove my experience with them on each trade. I think these funds should be allowed to be traded as they are right now. They should
If the irresponsible can't blow their money on these, they'll find another way - penny stocks, get rich schemes, etc. However, the responsible have spent years researching and educating themselves to responsibly and intelligently incorporate these into their portfolios. If you take these away, the responsible will have to work harder and research more for other investment
The investor should be responsible for making their investment decisions not some official. Leverage funds have great risk and thats a risk I am willing to take. All investments have risk, Enron collapsed, was a risk. A normal stock shows a miss on earnings and drops 30%, Netflix lost a small number of total customers and drops 40%. Can you protect all my investments, no, nor should you.
Our government should support a free market economy. To limit individual investors from inverse ETFs, is just another way to force American citizens into holding declining stocks (and losing money) while large investment firms make billions. I deserve the right to evaluate an investment, the risks, the rewards, and make a decision based on my research. Limiting the vehicles I have to generate
Writing this to let you know that I oppose the restrictions being considered to leveraged and inverse funds.

I oppose regulators limiting trades on inverse and leveraged etf's and stocks where the investors are fully aware of the risks. These options allow small retail investors the opportunity to compete with large banks and funds in a way that would otherwise not be possible helping to keep the playing field level. I primarily use these to hedge my long positions in volatile markets. It
What I do with my money is my choice. It is an overreach to tell me what I can and can't invest in.
Please do NOT restrict investing in leveraged funds.
If restrictions are put in place and I am forced to sell a stock at a loss, that loss will be replaced by those that vote for it.
Do not push this bill through unless you have millions of dollars to pay back your constituents if there
I've been investing my own money in the stock market since I was 10 years old. Please don't limit what I can invest in. I currently use leveraged and inverse funds, trade options, etc. People who invest in these are already given warnings and pointed to material to read and learn more. We don't need additional regulation. I'm quite capable of investing my money
I am a retired business owner and a 30+ year stock market investor. I am very capable of investing in Leveraged and Inverse Funds. I should not have to have a minimum net worth or go through any special tests before being able to invest in public securities. Please do not regulate or put limitations on Leveraged or Inverse Funds. This will greatly reduce my ability to reach my financial goals to
To FINRA Regulators,
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies, especially during periods like right now where the stock market is going down most of the time or theres much turmoil. I understand that leveraged and inverse funds and their risks but I have been trading them for months. Everything is fine.
I should be able to
