The purpose of restricting individual investors to purchase leverage ETFs by FINRA is questionable since my stock broker, Fidelity, already informs investors volatility and risks of losing capital seriously. Those who are trading leveraged ETFs are well aware of the consequences and ready to be responsible for high market volatility. In reality, most of novice individual traders don't
There is not any problem that needs to be solved with respect to leveraged and inverse ETFs. Leveraged and inverse ETFs are critical components of my trading and investing; they allow me to achieve enhanced returns and also help me to protect my portfolio during market downturns. I have actively traded and invested for over 30 years and monitor my accounts on a daily basis. I am certainly capable
I should be able to choose, I have been choosing for myself for 4 yrs and nothing has happened to me, I spend this new money and file my taxes on it. Have I lost some money from bad projects yes, but that was my choice, but I have make more that I lost, I have gained 80% and lost 20% and I am okay with that because I learned to do my home work on my investments, see want the project is solving
No one needs any measure of exam in order to invest. Any one can and should be able to choose public investments that are right for me and my family in any way shape or form. Public investment can and should always remain available to the public. No one should be excluded in any way shape or form. What is being done is trampling on the rights of the private citizen as a worker and as a provider.
There are many reasons this would be an abomination, but I will just go into one. Since the beginning of the NYSE, people have been fighting to democratize the market and make it accessible to all. It is in everyone's best interest that the market is accessible to all. This rule change would destroy all the work to make the financial markets accessible to all, regardless of status, race,
Hi FINRA,
I'm mildly opposed to a regulation banning "complex" financial products if it ends up covering things like 2x or 3x index funds (or even inverse funds). I can imagine folks getting themselves into trouble with these, but no more so than they already can with options and futures. I guess it's a bit worse insomuch as someone get get these funds in a
As an investor, I am opposed to the additional regulations proposed in Regulatory Notice 22-08 restricting access to certain complex products.
There are sufficient requirements to provide information on the behavior of these investments and more than enough regulation on broker dealers to supervise the purchase and trading of these instruments.
We cannot regulate our way to more intelligent
To the team at FINRA,
While I certain appreciate our regulatory system constantly looking to protect consumers and prevent fraud to ensure there is integrity in our financial system, I ask that you please avoid placing restrictions on our ability to invest. Limiting access for everyday investors (like myself) to funds like inverse or leveraged funds and only allowing those who already are
Dear Regulators:
I have been an investor in various markets for more than 50 years with experience ranging from stocks, bonds, and mutual funds to ETFs, commodities, real estate, complex financial instruments, and, most recently, crowd funding offerings. I understand, accept, and limit the risks of my investments. I should not be limited in my investments or be required to take creative means
Hello,
I have some concern regarding the FINRA regulatory Notice #22-08. Imposing such regulation on public traded securities is not only harmful but unprecedented. I think most of the retail market can agree that it is an investors right to freely access the entirety of the public securities markets
without arbitrary restrictions is a basic entitlement. Especially with the current state of the
