Comments:I have used leveraged ETFs for many years. I am very aware of the risks and benefits. They have mostly served me very well because I know when and how to use them. I dont need or want some government bureaucrat, who probably knows nothing about investing, to limit my investment options. The only thing this administration knows how to do is take my hard earned money and give it away.
These regulations would not only be an unnecessary restriction on the free market, but they would give an even more marked advantage to those who are already wealthy, by allowing them exclusive trading options that are not allowed to the vast majority of the rest of us. American citizens are better informed on what investments are best for their specific situations than regulators are. Let them
I clicked over to a website that does not support the proposed rule, but I *DO* agree with the limitations being proposed. I was Series 7 and Series 63 licensed, and have seen many people maneuvered into investments that neither they nor their financial advisors understood. The results can be devastating. I think it might be better to do a two-pronged approach with limits on the types of
I oppose the restrictions on being able to buy public investments. I dont think I should have to take any type of test to see if I qualify to purchase any type of investment. I buy different types of investments including cryptos to diversify my investments. I have done quite well in the past with the stock market and plan on living off the investment returns through out my(our) retirement years
It is the responsibility of regulators to ensure funds are well managed, safe from fraud and equally accessible to all investors. It is not the responsibility of regulators to determine which funds specific investors are allowed to purchase. Regulators must not require any tests or assessments in an effort to "weed out" or discriminate against investors. Cryptocurrency funds are an
I’m looking for (and I’m sure MANY other investor as well ) further transparency on short sales and short interest reporting, I feel as though there might not be all the information available to the public and need reaffirmation that I can trust the market I’m investing in, many thanks!
Attn: FINRA I do NOT want to be restricted as to when and how I invest my monies for my personal financial satisfaction. I've had to invest outside of a major brokerage; now choosing ProShares funds for this reason. I'm a senior citizen with many years of managing my own investments and am well aware of the risks life and ALL investments present and do NOT need to be further advised. Do
I should be able to choose the public investments that I determine right for me. While I appreciate the regulators intention, they should not infringe on the retail investors RIGHT to trade all publicly traded funds when the risks are well known. Inverse funds are an important investment strategy for me, especially in times of a bear market. Sorry, not my fault it isn't working out for the
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. There are certain times when inverse mutual funds work well in my portfolio. Not having availability to these types of investments would force me to use futures to achieve my goals and protect my portfolio in turbulent times. We all know
This rule is so un-necessary. Leveraged and inverse funds are extremely important to my families investment strategy. I use hedges and stop losses and paid advice from investors with over 30 yrs experience to carefully manage these funds. These are a small but very important part of my portfolio and it makes no sense to have to pass a test to make these well thought out and previously successful
