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
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.
Is this a problem these people are worried about? I have been investing many years without their help. I thought I lived in AMERICA not RUSSIA. Go help solve the many problems this country is facing. Stay out of my financial solutions. Thanks for this chance to voice my opinions. As a military vet I should be able to live in a country that I helped to protect. THANKS
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 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.
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.
The Financial Industry Regulatory Authority's mission is to: protect investors and safeguard market integrity By making leveraged products harder to access for lower net worth individuals the only investors that you are protecting are high net worth individuals who can afford to pay high advisor fees to continue to access leverage products without any effort
I have been investing for over 35 years. I have been using leveraged and inverse funds during that time. I don't need the government protecting me. I have worked as a financial advisor for about 15 years before retiring. I don't need you hovering over me to "protect me from myself!" Back off!!
Its really not your right to block or restrict investors the right to choose what they invest in. If someone wants to leverage 3x 4x or 100x its their right and their risk. If they win big they win. If they lose it all its their own fault. Children need their hands held. Adults playing in the financial world need to take responsibility for their own actions.
Dear Finra,
I became involved in managing my own portfolio as a college student. While I may not be a finance major, as an investor I have had a net benefit to have free access to a variety of financial instruments. Yes, some are "complex" such as inverse funds, but that does not mean that this area of investing needs regulation. It is up to individuals to exercise their best
