Really? I've been trading stocks, bonds, currencies, futures and actual treasury bonds since 1966. I've had a Series 7, 24 and 55. And you want to make me do what? This is a stupid regulation that prohibits me from doing what I want as an investor in public securities. I obviously understand risk, leverages and inverse funds. Restricting my ability to invest in these
1. As a member of the investing public, I should be allowed to choose which investments are suitable for myself and my family.
2. There should be no process by which I'm evaluated to invest in publicly traded securities.
3. Leveraged and inverse funds are important for me to meet my investment goals and invest in opportunities that develop as identified by my own research and analysis.
I should be able to choose my investments.
It is ridculous to only allow these type of investments to certain groups of people. Especially the most wealthy! If you are investing you should be responsible for taking that risk and that is it, not regulated. These are publicly traded securities that I should not be locked out of accessing through a test and should be free and available to the public
I have come to conclude, after so many years of buying and selling securities in my retirement portfolio, that I have developed a set of guidelines borne of my research and experience that provide me with the confidence to continue trading, including in complex products. AND, each trader is different and has developed their own guidelines. Therefore, I don't have confidence that FINRA
I oppose any restrictions to freely trade public securities as I believe it is a limitation on my freedom to choose how I want to invest my money and the choices I have. This is a free market enterprise and it should remain so in order that all including myself can and will continue to benefit in the short, medium and long-term. I hope our voices are heard before a decision is made, as otherwise
I oppose the restrictions to the rights of my investment as a normal individual, as thousands of other people in this country. It poses a severe threat towards market fairness. It's like locking people in home because of Flu. Retail traders or investors should be able to freely choose whatever products that fit their trading strategies. Finance is NOT only for the rich or the privileged
Hello,
I know that chances are, no-one will read this; but in the even that you do, I have a few simple words.
Imposing artificial limits on what people can trade and invest in, and especially limited to only the richest among us, is a terrible idea. I'm sure others have explained the reasoning for this before, so I will not go much deeper. Do know, however, that this is setting a
I completely OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST in leveraged or inverse products. Public investment should be available to public, not just the privileged. Im capable of understanding and trading inverse and leveraged products..dont need special restrictions on public products not fair. They are very important part of my portfolio in protecting or hedging against market uncertainty or
I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing your arbitrary test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I have been investing and trading in the stock market since 1957 and understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not want, and do not need to have your unnecessary measures imposed on me or anybody else. Please
It is very disturbing to hear that the FINRA is considering limiting the ability of the public to make its own decisions about investing or trading in the stock market. As so many Americans have finally figured out, the government does not serve the people, it serves the wealthy and the corporations. It would be a pity if you were to use your power to further disenfranchise the public from the
