The proposed regulations to protect investors from high risk investment options are not in my best interest. Better to have investor warnings when purchasing them but not specific requirements based on knowledge or net worth.
We have always had the ability to trade stocks and funds that we have determined to trade. We understand the risks and if people don't then they just need to take responsibility for our trading or not trade at all.
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. Public investments should be available to all the public-not just the wealthy. I believe that investors of this area are able to understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks without taking a test.
I have used ProShares as a hedge against market declines many times. It actually lowers risk in my portfolio in that its an insurance against large market drops.
I totally oppose any restrictions on trading this product!
My investments are my own choice. I interact with these investment options with a full knowledge of their potential risks. There is more than sufficient information available to the average investor to ensure full comprehension of these vehicles. Do not restrict this accessibility.
I understand leverage and inverse funds and risks associated with funds. I found that these funds are working well for hedging against my long term investments for me. So please allow individual investors to have that funds available.
The options for rich people to invest are already significantly more than everyone else, why would we restrict one more option. I understand what I'm doing in leveraged asset classes and the risks they contain.
as investor and trader, we are aware of risks associate with trades, all trades. ETF including inverse etf are essential tooks we employ to adjust complicate, dynamic market conditions. I oppose restrictions to such etfs. thanks
I object to the possibility of restricting my investment choices. I fully understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. For years leveraged and inverse funds have been important to my investment strategy and I would like it to stay that way.
It would be preposterous to restrict purchase of securities that permit me to hedge my risk.
Not sure why regulators would consider themselves as more concerned about my financial well being than I am myself.
