This does not need more big government! I'm a small-time investor, and I want to make my own investment decisions. Of course, all investing carries a risk - stocks, bonds, crypto, buying houses, etc etc.
These funds create an equal playing field for the small-time investors, not Wall Street. So please do not pass this. Thank-you.
People, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for them. Public investments should be available to all the public, not just the privileged. We shouldn't have to go through a special process or pass a test before investing in public securities like leveraged and inverse funds. People are capable of making their own decisions and understanding the risks.
I don't agree with this regulation. If you want to restrict the risk, why do you stop for option trading? Also many penny stocks and starting company stocks are more volatile and risky than leverage stocks. Investors need to have variant ways to trade to make profits and hedges. There is no way to regulate our freedom of trading.
As an individual investor, I understand the risk of investing in leveraged and inverse funds. As long as such investment suits my purpose, I have the right to choose the funds I want. It would be unfair if such investment is available to just the privileged and I have to go through any additional processes to invest in such securities. Therefore, I oppose the regulations being considered by the
I completely disagree with the notion to take away people's rights to invest in products that level the playing field, make them money in good markets, and hedge their risk in poor markets. The stock market is a marketplace for everyone and people should continue to keep their rights to invest in what they want to in the public markets, without greater regulatory scrutiny. Thank you.
Dear FINRA,
My Broker, Fidelity Investments, already imposes stringent rules regarding who can invest in leveraged ETF investment products and makes me read and acknowledge the risks inherent in said investments. There is no need for further government oversight. Qualified investors should be allowed to invest in these products should they choose to do so.
I am writing as a self managed investor in several of the Proshares leveraged funds. I have invested in these funds for more than 3 years. I visit the Proshares website, read the prospectuses and past fund performance, the degree of leverage being offered and the risks involved. The information provided is comprehensive. I am hereby advocating to keep investments in Proshares leveraged funds
Restricting investments for individuals in any publicly traded security or fund/ETF should be forbidden. Who are the regulators that seem to think that they get to play "God" with my money. Exchange traded funds/ETF's, stocks all go thru rigorous disclosure requirements and clearly indicate there is "risk" of loss when investing. This is clearly
I oppose any restrictions to my right to invest in public investments. It is up to the individual investor what risks they are willing to take. Regulators have no business telling me what is good for me.
I am an individual investor that has used leveraged and inverse funds for decades, all chosen by myself. I do not need to be "vetted", particularly by a government
Every investor shouldn't have to go through any special process before you can invest in public securities like leveraged and inverse funds. As an investor, we are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their associated risks. Regulators do not need to impose additional measure on the investing public and should not be available to just the privileged.
