I have been actively investing in the stock market since 1985 and have followed the development of leveraged and inverse funds and ETFs as they progressed. I think the current requirements of the brokerage firms is adequate information to investors about these types of securities. I think no additional restrictions or regulations should be placed on my right to invest in these securities.
Leveraged and inverse funds are central to my investment strategy. I am not a multi-millionaire and am retired. My strategy has been successful in supplementing my social security. You would take this away by passing yet another measure designed to protect me and others from the pitfalls of unsuccessful investing.
Don't do this.
I use leveraged ETFs to hedge a portfolio of stocks owned by my parents. In addition, I trade them for my smaller personal account because I am too fearful to trade futures, and futures options are overly expensive. These ETFs are very useful and I hope you do not place nay restrictions on them.
As a American citizen it is the will of the people to invest as each individual sees fit without regulation.
I would like you to leave leveraged ETFs alone. I should be able to choose to have a risky security in my portfolio. At WORST, I would be willing to accept a qualification process based on risk tolerance, but not amount of income or assets, or experience. I,e a poor but educated and informed aggressive investor should not be prohibited.
Thank you
I don.'t need or want anymore regulations on my investments
I feel that I'm savy and knowledgeable enough to understand the risks associated with investments in these bitcoin related funds and don't want to be prohibited from investing in them.
We are strongly opposed to FINRAs additional regulation on public securities. It would severely limit peoples investment choices while putting extreme burden on the broker dealers. A as long-time member of FINRA, it is very disappointing to see FINRA simply increase regulation rather that make any attempt to make regulation work on behalf of the public, and the people they are supposedly serving
I am appalled that the SEC thinks they have the right to tell how and when is acceptable for me to invest in any instrument. I am a frequent investor in leveraged and inverse funds and demand that you take no actions that infringe in any way on my ability to continue to do so. These investments should be available to all, not just to a privileged few. I insist that you drop all planned actions
I strongly believe I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Additionally, I should not have to take a test to enjoy the opportunity to invest.
