I am aware of the restrictions that may be introduced on my leveraged investments and I strongly appose any limitations likely to be considered on these investments! As a private investor I should be allowed to choose where to invest my capital as I take full responsibility for the outcomes of my investment strategy. I understand leveraged and inverse funds and am fully aware of the risks
It has come to my attention that regulators are considering limiting access to leveraged and inverse funds without meeting certain restrictions. While I understand the concerns that regulators may have in wanting to protect the investing public from themselves, I believe regulating this space would be an unwanted and unnecessary intrusion into peoples private investing decisions. One could
I am absolutely opposed. This type of classism will further promote the growing disparity within our nation. It is the antithesis of equality and cements the fast growing perception that America is a land without opportunity. There should not be a list of requirements to complete before having the ability to access investments in private securities.
The course of action proposed is starkly
As a self advised , private investor I should not have any restrictions placed upon what I can choose t invest in for myself and my family. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, including cryptocurrency funds such as BITO. I fully understand cryptocurrency funds such as BITO and their risks. These investments
Dear Sirs,
As owner of leveraged and inverse funds I am opposed to any legislation or regulation of these funds owned by private investors.

I think its already ridiculous small investors like myself cant invest in private companies just because were
I should be able to choose what is right for me as an adult. FINRA can give guidance but shouldn't block instruments arbitarily. Even private equity investors go horribly wrong so having large portfolio is no gaurantee for sane investment. People like me from middle class rely on long term compunding of leveraged instruments for a sizeable retirement fund. for example there are a whole
Go ahead and regulate whether I'm smart enough to invest my own money. Take away the inverse ETF's and leveraged funds, but please let me have access to insider trading like the rest of you crooked politicians. Or maybe just send the rest of us every day Americans to prison like you did to Martha Stewart. OR you can let legislation pass that allows us to take our social security
I resent the thought that I cannot choose for myself what investment products work best for me. And I find it insulting, manipulative and corrupt that only those with privilege (high net worth investors) would be allowed to use these trading vehicles. I use these types of vehicles to hedge positions as well as to take advantage of down movements, since I can not use options in my IRA account. I
Sophisticated investor rules are outdated in the age of the internet. I have multiple degrees related to investment and financial analysis. Under the Sophisticated investor rules I cant invest in certain opportunities, and now you want to expand that?
