I believe investors should have the right to choose. I'm able to understand the risk and do not think regulations are needed.
I as an educated investor want to make decisions on what I invest in. Public investments should be available to me and all the public not just the privileged.
I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities. I understand quite well what I am investing in when I purchase a leveraged or inverse fund. I understand the risk
The bottom 90% of net worth individuals already have a much harder time growing their wealth. No further impositions should be made that would hinder the average retail investor from investing how they want to invest.
I oppose the proposed restrictions on my right to invest in inverse and leveraged funds. I am not a professional investor, but as one who has managed most of my own investments for 20 years, I realize that there is inherent risk in financial investing (as in all of life). Investing in leveraged and inverse funds is an integral part of my investment strategy and I do it recognizing that there
I use leveraged and inverse funds as part of my trading strategy. It is far less risky than using options in a retirement account. Please allow the continued use of the Proshares offering as I frequently trade TQQQ and SQQQ in my portfolio.
Dear Sir,
I was made aware of the possibility of trading restrictions being placed on inverse and leveraged investment vehicles.
Using these types of investments allows me to safe guard my portfolio from market declines without having to liquidate my primary investments using only a small portion of my capital. I prefer them to options as I don't have to worry about expiration dates.
Removing our ability to protect our assets and ONLY allowing us to be long stocks is criminal. Why cant we protect our investments? You only want us to lose money if the marker goes down? You crooks need to allow us to short if we want to and STOP trying to control markets so much. GET OUT OF THE MARKETS. Let the free markets be free. If we want to short we should be able to.
I am the one that should be able to choose the investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged!
I am not a full time investor. I feel very confident that the risks of leveraged funds are not difficult to understand. I feel it is no different with ordinary stocks or funds. I believe the index leveraged funds are actually more clear on what my risks are. Please do no limit such flexibility. Brokers make it clear that these options require more knowledge of risks.
I believe any attempt to restrict/regulate this kind of investing is insulting and must be stopped. If Im old enough to earn the money I invest, I should remain completely free to invest it how ever I want. Keep the government out of my private financial decision making!
