PLEASE do not take away ordinary retail investors' right to trade these products. There is an inherent risk in any investment. People who participate in the market should be able to assess for themselves what level of risk they want to take on. If they don't want the risk, there are plenty of other vehicles to trade. Most importantly, these products are the only way ordinary
Hello,
I believe it is unfair to regulate what I invest in. I strongly believe that investors have the right to decide which public equities, bonds and funds they want to buy. To limit based on how much wealth an investor currently holds creates a disadvantage to those interested in creating wealth especially those who come from disadvantaged communities and populations. It is unfair to create
I'm confused about why these funds should be an issue for regulators. They have been just fine for the past several years, and now they become a problem? This issue makes me suspect, and probably correctly so, that there is "money" behind the regulation concerns. Someone is not getting their "fair share" someway or somehow, and therefore we need to
I oppose having restrictions placed on leveraged ETF;s for the following reasons: 1. There are many individual securities (stocks and funds) that are more volatile than leveraged ETFs 2, Volatility is not risk and more meaningful is the trend of its moving average. e. Volatility provide investors an opportunity to achieve their objective in a shorter time period. Rather than impose restrictions
Leveraged and inverse funds should be available to everyone, not just the privileged. We started buying leveraged and inverse funds in 2011 and over the course of the last 11 years, we have continued to invest more in those funds as we've seen our best returns from these investments. They have also gone down in value but we do not sell when it's down. Leveraged and inverse
I have used leveraged funds as powerful tools to hedge my portfolio and take advantage of certain periods in the market. In fact, I saved for my house down payment using a leveraged ETF and Im pretty sure its the only way I would have afforded a down payment as a first time homebuyer.
I think its already ridiculous small investors like myself cant invest in private companies just because were
I don't think regulators should be telling me what public investments I can and cannot invest in. I have done well investing in leveraged funds. They should be readily available to everyone, not just the wealthy and connected people. It is a matter of having a level playing field for everyone and should not be restricted (tests, permissions, etc.) unless those same restrictions are placed on
This is an unjust move to limit flexibilities and insurance for our future and retirement. Inverse funds help those of us who do not have millions and cannot gain access to our 401K to safeguard it from the market crashing. I understand that it is a risk to invest in inverse funds; however, that is a risk that I understand, and I am willing to make. There is risk in any investment. It's a
Good day, I am deeply opposed to restricting any of my rights on investing. I am a free thinking adult and as such have the right to invest my money in any way I see fit. I should forever have free access to any and all types of investments without special testing or vetting.
By doing it is my belief that only a elite class/group of people will have access to certain investments. This is simply
Why is the FINRA taking away my ability to invest in the investments that I choose? I am a 34-year-old adult and I know how to be a big boy and take the risks of what I'm doing. Some risks, like driving or guns, have regulations in place because of the harm they place on others. However, what harm do my investments place on anyone but myself? As long as the warnings are in place, then we
