Regulators should not be able to prevent me or force me to take tests before I can invest in public securities like TQQQ.
I understand about investor funds and their risk. The above
fund has allowed me to easily increase my retirement funds, so
do not take that away from me.
We, not regulators should be able to choose what we invest in. No special process such as an exam should be required. We understand and trade at our own risk. No test can change that. Leveraged & inverse funds are needed in my portfolio. They require less cash and are not subject to earnings volatility or principle changes.
I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.
These funds help me protect (hedge) my investments.
I believe that these new regulations will help people. Many people don't understand anything about investing, and might put all of their money in one single stock, and lose it all.
Many people are not capable of understanding investment risks. I do not believe that "my rights will be taken away" if these regulations are made law. That is silly.
Inverse and leveraged funds are a perfectly transparent and clear way for investors to gain advantages over various market conditions without the complexity of option agreements that could expose them to massive risk. Unlike a short option, losses in an inverse fund are limited to the size of the investment, a responsible and conservative path for any investor.
I should have the right to invest my money as I choose. I understand the risks that I assume when investing my money in public securities. Leveraged and inverse funds allow me to hedge other invests so that I can protect myself should the market become bearish. I use an inverse fund for such a purpose currently
I currently invest in BITO to diversify my portfolio risk so that I'm not too concentrated in any one asset class. Taking away this ability would only hurt me and countless others.
Investing should be a level playing field for everybody. Requiring certain account balance thresholds is completely unfair.
I use the leveraged and inverse funds as important tools for me to hedge and speculate at the appropriate time to complement my stock portfolio. Over the years, I've learned the risks and rewards of these funds. There should be some minimal restrictions on the usage of public investments to protect new or beginner investors, but not experience investors. Thank you.
I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments.
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks and regulators do not need to impose measures on me.
Use of derivatives was proposed by Anddre Perod of Harvard Business School in about 2000 at the HBS Investment Management lectures. Security markets are not a one-way street, he explained. It is a good way to hedge portfoliios, and with leverage it can provide an efficient use of capital so long as there is an appropiate risk discipline as volatility is maximized.
