You have no right to tell people what they can and cannot invest in. The understanding of the risks in leveraged and inverse indexes is known at the time of purchase. Each person is solely responsible for their own investments and risks. With each of these suggestions you erode any faith in a free market.
Each investment carries its own set of risks. The basis of the free market is the principle that investors must bare the consequences of their investments whether the results are beneficial or detrimental. Providing information of risks is a beneficial service, but trading restrictions could harm smart investors with limited resources.
I do not need or want special processes or tests before investing in leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding the principles and risks of such funds, and the strategies used to protect my exposure to losses. I have significant experience, and utilize fund strategies to offset risks in my normal investments.
Dear Sirs:
I should have the right to choose my investments according to my preferences, and not answer to authorities as to what is right or wrong for me. I understand leveraged funds and the associated risks. I do not need regulators to decide risk for me. I am capable of handling both the ups and downs.
Dear Regulators, I know that certain type of shares are risky, but I can understand that market does involve risk. Certain risks do give better returns. So, this privilege should not be limited to people with huge wealth. I should be able to decide where to put my money to invest.
I cannot state how much I am opposed to excessive regulations taking away my freedom to invest as I so chose. I utilize put options on these types of leveraged funds such as UPRO and TQQQ to acquire shares tied to the S&P and Nasdaq at a very advantageous price and then sell covered calls against the shares once obtained. I can make upwards of 5% on my money each month with
I believe it is in my best interest to be able to invest in leveraged funds or not. As with any investment made available to the public, there are risks involved. There are so many other types of funds that have more risk than leveraged ETFs which are not under scrutiny.
Please allow these investments available to the public.
Hello, I understand that the markets carry inherent risk. I believe that if I myself am comfortable assuming that risk with the understanding that my investment may go to a $0 value then I should be free to invest in what I choose. Stocks are not a secured investment. I see no difference in purchasing shares of leveraged funds.
I deserve the right and ability to choose my own Investments, along with the level of risk that I wish to take. I understand the risks involved with leveraged and inverse products and I wish to use them from time to time to supplement my portfolio. Such products should not be reserved for the privileged few or the rich.
You should not restrict access to me trading Leveraged or Inverse funds. I am currently in one of those and know the risks. You have no right to make me pass a test to trade these. These are public securities. We are already warned by our brokers that there is risk. That should be sufficient.
