Investors should be free to make their own decisions in where they would like to invest their money, short or long term, however risky it may be, so long as the fund is honest. Small caps or OTC is just as volatile and risky if not more. Options trading is way more risky than leveraged ETFs as well. You limit retail's tools to hedge or make large gains by stopping us from using these.
I have done very well using leveraged funds. If you merely buy low and sell high, you can make far more money. It is easier and simpler that using options, for a small fee I let the fund do that. I also like inverse funds, which provides market liquidity and it is similar to selling short, but again easier for me. Please let me decide what, where, and how to invest. Please let me and my family
I believe in more significant penalties and stricter timeliness for FTDs. The rules are so tight for retail investors but the market makers, brokers, large funds, etc. receive so much leeway. A retail trader should have even opportunities as it pertains to data as well. I believe these rule changes will assist with bringing better information to all. Thank you.
This is America or use to be. Once I earn money and pay taxes on said money then who are you to tell me how to invest it? So playing the lotto is ok? Why is that ok but some investments are to complex for my small brain? Is it because the government sells the tickets? Please stop as your embarrassing yourselves. Please match wits with me. Who ever wrote this proposal should move to
Managing client portfolios, as well as my own, has been greatly improved with my access to inverse and leveraged ETFs provided by Direxion Funds and others. My clients are knowledgable enough and they are aware of the benefits and drawbacks of these types of investments - and the key role they play in a portfolio. Their features like hedging portfolios and enhancing risk-adjusted returns are
I am totally against SEC Proposal Rule #S7-24-15. I do not need the Politicians of Washington to protect me from my own decisions on how to invest my hard earned money. I certainly understand the risks in investing in a variety of assets as well as the potential benefits. If you want to focus on areas that are important to me:
1. Hold Chinese businesses to the same standards of review as U.S
It should be up to individual investors as to whether they what type of investment they chose without the proposed "red tape" despite known volatility. Many publicly traded companies have gone bankrupt or experienced huge fluctuations in stock prices and in those cases shareholders are not protected. Overall, investors should never have a concentration in any investment and no one
So now, you LOYAL CITIZENS WANT TO LIMIT MY FREEDOM OF USING MY INCOME. AND MAKE SURE NO ONE ELSE CAN *"""BUY THEIR WAY INTO POWER AS Y'ALL DID. SCARY BEING AT THE TOP WITH SKELETONS. WELL PASS THIS AND IT WONT BE LONG. NO, NO THREAT FROM ME. KARMA ALWAYS COMES FROM BEHIND U JUST LIKE A BIG CAT IN THE SHADOWS. AND YES I CAN SPIN AS FOOD AS YOU. ROME DID NOT
How Arrogant! You are putting up hurdles for no good reason. People should not need to pass a test, cool off or be forced to follow any nanny state idea. How little faith you have in people. This is insane and I guess it is finally time to organize and remove overbearing, outlandish, self serving humans. I bet you are doing this because of events like GME, wall street bets. You just want to stop
The ability to trade inverse and leveraged investment vehicles as well as closed end funds, volatility assets, stocks bonds and options are all equally important to me personally! Regulators should not be able to determine what I as a long term sophisticated investor should be able to trade. There is no reason to make me subject to any special process or approvals, I have been using them for a
