Regulators, Leveraged ETFs are important to my investment strategy and ability to tailor my investments to my risk tolerance. I use leveraged and invers ETFs for efficient hedging and speculation based on my analysis. Restricting free access to these instruments means infringing on my rights to manage my investments without outside intervention and will be an absolutely stupid policy that will
I_ not the regulators_ should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all the public and not just the privileged. I am capable of understanding inverse funds and their risks and I don't need restrictive measures imposed on me. I trade _ not invest_ inverse funds using my own short term strategies to enhance
returns.
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
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
My broker notified me re: a proposal that would force me to qualify to trade a public security focused on cryptocurrency. I oppose any type of qualification to trade these securities. I understand
cryptocurrency funds, such as BITO, and their risks, and i limit my total investment in such securities to about 1-2% of my portfolio. I know how to be cautious, and do not need government regulation
As a recently retired investment professional, I believe clients (including myself) have the right to freely select investments, (no matter how complex) and not be subject to the restrictions of FINRA's potential regulations. It is the financial professional's responsibility and within the compliance guidelines of their associated clearing/ brokerage firm to make sure the
My husband and I invest casually in video games, automotive, and TQQQ. I feel everyone should have access to public investments. To invest in any stock or fund involves some risk. That is the nature of it. My family should have the same access to investments that we have always had. If we were restricted from trading TQQQ, wouldnt that take the free out of free market?
Dear Finra,
I strongly encourage you to continue allowing retail and retirement investors like myself to continue investing in levered and complex products. These products are great investment tools for people like myself who choose to perform careful and thoughtful research while understanding the risks that come with them. It would be government overreach to restrict individuals from making
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
