Please do not take away the ability to use leveraged funds as this is a great vehicle to be a bit more aggressive without having to buy individual stocks. I should be able to assess and trade on the risk tolerance I have for myself and my family.
I am a 24 year old investing for the long term and have faith in our economy moving forward, if you can short stocks, why cant you double down on pro shares. Please let us invest!
Leveraged funds (TQQQ, UPRO, UDOW) are important to my investment strategies. It's less risky than high growth individual stocks and helps me seek enhanced return. I hope it's restricted to high networth investors.
Continue to allow our ability to make our own decisions on investing in leveraged and inverse funds. This is a significant option to be in the stock markets. Without it I an many may divest in these markets and find other alternatives for investment options including cryptocurrencies.
I understand the risks involved with these types of investments.
With the ones I hold, I am hoping for interest rates to go up. No matter what type of security I purchase I can loose money. Stocks are shorted Bonds are shorted so what's the difference.
I don't believe open and publicly available stocks, ETFS (including leveraged and inverse products), or other financial instruments should require FINRA to regulate the purchaser of said instruments. The role of FINRA should be to regulating the issuer of the instruments themselves.
Its important to continue to allow innovative financial solutions like leveraged assets. I feel this type of asset is of lesser risk than many other asset options. Ie individual low quality stocks, SPACs and options contracts.
This is truly absurd. This is America. We have the right to purchase shares of any stock or ETF we want. Let people have the freedom to choose. We are not children. Everyone is responsible for the decisions they make. And those decisions are ours to make.
Please dont limit the use of leveraged funds within retirement accounts. The ability to choose funds and stocks allowing for Financial freedom is a cornerstone to American principles. I ask that you allow people to choose their own level of acceptable risk.
Keep the market free. Each investor needs to do their own evaluation and pick their own stocks. The Government needs to stay out of this. The Government's job is let the market operate freely without special regulations as to who can invest.
