SEC, I do not want any existing opportunities that I can invest in or use for investing leverage to be limited in any way. Do not pass any laws limiting or regulating these opportunities. You need to concentrate on better regulating large institutions which eagerly and openly manipulate investments and markets, while claiming they do not. You work for us, American citizens, so protect us from
Dear Regulators,
Individuals should be free to invest how they wish, without regulator claiming they know better. The legislation to ban certain types of trading to individuals limits their freedoms. There should be no expectation of tests, net worth, etc. The only requirement should be if someone has money, and wants to invest it. Leveraged funds and inverse funds are the only option for some
These regulations would not only be an unnecessary restriction on the free market, but they would give an even more marked advantage to those who are already wealthy, by allowing them exclusive trading options that are not allowed to the vast majority of the rest of us. American citizens are better informed on what investments are best for their specific situations than regulators are. Let them
I find the fact that regulators have decided to not only limit my (and most peoples) access to the funds that we wish to invest our savings in, but the fact that regulators believe that THEY can limit when and how we do trade, much like the Robinhood fiasco. I oppose this useless regulation when time and government effort could be better spent regulating the markets, brokers, and the corporations
The SEC needs to back off. The idea that regulators know better than people, and that qualified investors are he only ones who should be able to invest is mentally deficient, asinine, and prideful. This is why the 99% are losing. Qualified investors are all part of the 1%. The sec doesn't hassle them. They win. The rest of america loses. The idea of qualified investors should be made into a
I clicked over to a website that does not support the proposed rule, but I *DO* agree with the limitations being proposed. I was Series 7 and Series 63 licensed, and have seen many people maneuvered into investments that neither they nor their financial advisors understood. The results can be devastating. I think it might be better to do a two-pronged approach with limits on the types of
I oppose the proposed regulation. I should have the ability to invest how I see fit. I should not have to be part of the connected privileged class in order to invest in leveraged vehicles. This regulation is creating a two tiered class system which goes against all principles of this country. You should be embarrassed for even thinking such a regulation is necessary. You would be better suited
As a US citizen, I value the right to freely access the entirety of the public securities markets without arbitrary restrictions, and the freedom to access a broad range of investment products that help me build better portfolios. As information on investments is more readily available than ever before, I have become a knowledgable investor without the need for additional restrictive regulatory
You should create a public portal where people can ask their questions publicly and WEEKLY have the SEC chairman answer a bunch of them. The reason people are generally so angry with the SEC is because we never feel like they actually have the retail investor's best interests in mind. Communication is KEY to success and the more the SEC has open communication with who they represent, the
A.1 Should CABs be permitted to engage in a broader range of M&A and private placement activities than currently specified in the CAB rules? Answer: Probably not.A.2 CABs may not act as an agent for secondary transactions involving unregistered securities, other than in connection with the change of control of a privately held company.
