This punishes older investors in two ways. First, selling covered calls is an established source of income for retirement accounts. Why punish those who want to use this conservative approach? Secondly, the older investor who is behind on their savings and intelligently want to increase risk to catch up to have a nest egg that will support a self-sufficient retirement will be punished.
Please just let me invest how I want. This is obnoxious.
Who are you to say who is sophisticated enough?
I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
The proposed regulation on investing is the most un-American thing I have ever heard. If you want communism this is one of the steps to force our society into it.
This is despicable.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to your
investment strategies. Consider explaining ways you use
leverage and inverse funds, including that they help you
protect (hedge) your investments or seek enhanced returns,
and if you use them as a limited part of your overall portfolio.
I want to retain my ability to invest in leveraged and inverse ETFs, and I know what I'm doing when I invest in these. Access should be newly restricted.
Please shutdown all these leveraged and volatility products specially the one from Proshares and Direxion. Only the fund manager knows what's going on. It's full of scam and benefits only few people. I strongly support all the restrictions imposed.
Investors should continue to have access to products that have existed for decades as there are not that many options to hedge portfolios. We need options to hedge against downside risk. Do not limit our options please.
Using leverage is the only way little money has a chance of growth
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
