I am very much against restrictions proposed in this regulatory notice. While the risk of financial loss when investing in these products is high, so is the opportunity for significant profits. Government should not control how I invest my money or make me run through multiple hoops to invest. Please do not implement the proposed rules.
Financial regulators should be in the business of protecting investors from fraud or general education. Limiting investment options including those with diversification value should not occur. Forcing training or exclusionary measures also should not occur; investments are individual choice. Recommendation: Create the best investor education website and people will come to learn on their own.
Hello, LETF leveled the playing field and I can manage my own investment. I understand the risks and do not need FINRA to protect me from complex instruments. Whoever is supporting more regulations are people who have financial motive to "educate" and "help" retail investors for a fee of course.
I'm a financial professional fully licensed with a Series 7 and 24. I utilize leveraged funds not only in my retirement account but also in my retail account. I utilize leveraged inverse bond funds, biotech funds and QQQ etfs. There should be no limit on these funds, with the exception of 300+ % leveraged funds. That's when risk becomes unmanageable in my opinion.
Investors are responsible for their own decisions. If someone wants to invest in leveraged and inverse funds, they should be able to do it without regulation. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just a privlieged few in society and you shouldn't have to pay a financial advisor to trade in leveraged and inverse funds. I oppose the FINRA Regulatory Notice
I like to invest in leveraged funds. They add a great advantage to my investment objectives. I dont want regulators restricting my access to them as I understand the financial markets and I dont want to take tests to gain access to them. I have been using leveraged funds for ten years now and they have been an important part of my portfolio.
Dear Sir/Madam,
I understand that FINRA is considering implementation of restrictions/rules which might impede my ability to invest in leveraged and/or inverse funds. As a small investor, these financial instruments allow me to diversify and/or hedge my portfolio with a great deal of efficiency. Please do not place any further restrictions on the trading in these valuable trading tools!
I invest in inverse and leveraged funds often. I am not a professional investor, just an average American. I do my homework, and make my own financial decisions. The US government does not hesitate to tax me on my success. Please dont restrict my ability to generate that success, by restricting my a access to these type of investment vehicles.
Hello. I beleive we can make our own decisions to our investments, this includes leveraged funds. I use them for leverage and hedging, both important elements for a good financial plan. Law markers should look at oher things like dishonesty amoungst the people that make the markets.
I dont think they should be allowed to partisipate in the makrkets.
