I have invested and traded stocks, options, etf's for 20 years and understand the risks involved. I have a high net worth and only risk approximately 5% of my stock portfolio on options and etf's hedges. I have extensive knowledge by reading about various types of investments. This is the U.S. where we should have the right to invest public investments of all kinds if we choose. We should not have regulators dictate what is deemed risky nor have them imposed upon us. Leveraged and inverse securities are an important part of my investment hedge that will protect my overall portfolio from up, sideways or down market.
