I want to relay my concerns about the referenced regulatory notice.
I do not believe any incremental regulatory requirements should be placed on leveraged investment instruments. I disagree with the notion of testing, thresholds, net worth requirements and so on. These are public instruments that should be made available to all. Firms selling these products are quite clear communicating the
To Whom It May Concern,
Me not regulators should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
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
I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. They help me protect (hedge) my investments or seek enhanced returns for my family and myself. What is more information, according to the Fourteenth Amendment to the U.S. Constitution, I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the
Our government should support a free market economy. To limit individual investors from inverse ETFs, is just another way to force American citizens into holding declining stocks (and losing money) while large investment firms make billions. I deserve the right to evaluate an investment, the risks, the rewards, and make a decision based on my research. Limiting the vehicles I have to generate
Individual investors should be free to make their own investment choices in well regulated markets. Taking away or making it more difficult to invest in leveraged and inverse financial products could drive investors away from regulated markets and subject them to increased fraud. The risks associated with these products is already well documented in the prospectus. These types of investment
I oppose any restrictions to my right to invest in specialized leveraged and inverse funds. These types of investment products should be available to any individual's investment strategy and not only to the privileged that can meet a set of arbitrary conditions set by regulators. I felt fully informed and understood all risk involved before I started to use these types of leveraged and
I am saddened to hear that regulators are considering adding more regulations to an already extremely regulated industry. I understand that investing is an inherently risky undertaking and certain regulations are needed to level the playing field, but having the regulators being the all knowing Nanny for what I can and can't invest in, is a bridge too far. Make the risks known, keep
I want to see LESS regulation on investing, not more. I should have public investments available to me. I have great credit and don't want to be tested before using a leveraged account. I understand the risks and so does everybody else. Make an easy to read disclaimer to solve the issue. I'm very upset to hear that the government is trying to control my ability to make
Why should regulators control how I choose to invest on the public market? Should I not have the right to invest in leveraged funds? It should my choice to invest a small percentage of my portfolio in a leveraged fund without special training or being a professional investor! All equities have some measure of risk, so why should I not have the right to diversify to the point to include a
The world is already a [REDACTED] place, please stop making it [REDACTED] High rewards are associated with high risk, that is the American way. Keep regulating will make USA into Canada, a second rate first world country with little growth, with a second rate pretended dollar.
