I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds.
I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me seek enhanced returns when I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio.
I am writing to express my concern with the regulations you are considering regarding leveraged and inverse funds. I use these funds to balance my portfolio and enhance its performance during adverse times like we are currenlty experiencing.
I understand the risks of investing with these funds and, more importantly, don't feel it is your job to control how I invest my money.
Thank you
I use the leveraged and inverse funds as a hedge for my
portfolio during time of volatility.
I strongly oppose the restrictions on my right to invest in the leveraged and inverse funds which I have a full understanding including their risks. Also I strongly oppose any requirement on me to pass a test before I can invest in the leveraged and inverse funds which should be available to all of the
As an investor, I should have the right to choose my investments, rather than have several familiar funds unavailable because I don't fit a special demographic. That is discrimination. When I invest my money, I take on the risk that comes with that. I do not need someone else to tell me I can't invest in specific funds under the veil of "looking out for me."
i think the concept of restricting the public's right to invest in leveraged etf's is plain wrong. There is no reason to single out these investment vehicles for restrictions. The stock market is filled with risks, these not being much more than so many others. I have traded in these for years to my success and sometimes loss. But they are a great way to leverage your decisions. They
these regulations are extremely excessive. Investors in such products do not need you to assume that just because we invest via leveraged ETFs that we dont know what we are doing or understand the risks. In my opinion leveraged ETFs are one of the most effective ways to invest. I believe this so strongly i am teaching my children how to incorporate them into their portfolios as they are starting
I manage my brokerage and retirement accounts. I make all my own investment decisions and execute all trades. Leveraged and inverse ETFs and ETNs are an important part of my investment strategy. I am 70 and have used these kinds of products for over 10 years. I know the risks and rewards of this type of product and I strongly believe no regulator should be trying to restrict my access to these
The regulations you are suggesting imply that only an elite class of investors are capable of making informed choices about their personal investments. I take offense to that as I believe that I am sufficiently intelligent to make my own risk assessments and investment decisions. And if Im not, I have no one to blame but myself. Investors dont need FINRA limiting our investment options under
Consider additional warnings on trading platforms so investors better understand the risks, but please DO NOT restrict trading in ProShares for retail investors. My husband and I invest carefully and have done quite well with ProShares funds in the past. Other investors' ignorance or carelessness should not be a reason to keep us and others like us from investing as we wish in the
To whom it may concern,
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
Public investments should be available to all of us, not just the privileged. I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. I should not have to pass a test before I can invest in public securities like leverage and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding them and the risks and
