I as a investor should be able to choose whichever stocks or funds I see fit. I research my investments and understand the risks. I do not believe passing a test before I invest is unfair and don not need anyone to hold my hand when coming to my portfolio.
The USA is supposed to be a free country without burdensome regulations. Do not try to take away individual liberties. We already know the government as a whole is scum; what remains to be determined is whether you, the bureaucrat reading this, is any better.
Do not come in the way of investments. You already get your bribe from every transaction.
That is simple, they are my money not regulators. I don't tell you how you will manage your money. So let ME decide what to do with my money.
Dear FINRA Regulators,
In a free country, is it not the people, rather than unelected regulators, who get to decide what to do with their own money? That's what living in a free country is all about: individual liberty AND personal responsibility. In the market place, this plays out as the opportunity for reward and the possibility of risk. Virtually every trader knows that they may lose
I have been using leveraged etf's for 10 years...i like them...they allow me to invest a smaller percent of portfolio and still get a return. Trade frequently every week. The risks are well documented. What i dont like are ETNs that close during times of market volatility.
As far as i am concerned... I am an individual investor.....Who are you to tell me how much money i can make
Cmon man Im a big boy I can bet on levered etfs. Its not even accurate that theyre bad buy and hold. Past hundred years of data levered etfs even with volatility drag outperforms spy
Against this rule! Investors should be able to make their own decisions instead of the government ruling against that. What is next? Cryptos, futures contracts ?
I should retain my rights to invest in cryptocurrency funds as I see fit. Cryptocurrency funds aren't for everyone but neither are REITs or any other investment form.
Let ME, THE INVESTER, DECIDE!
My rights to invest how I choose should not be restricted by FINRA. Investing against the market is no different than investing with the market. Why should an investor undergo special (unfavorable) treatment if they invest against the market? Leveraged and inverse investments provide a sensible way to hedge one's portfolio. Taking this away from the investor eliminates any safety net
FINRA,
A little bit of background:
I am self taught in the domain of investment finance. The extent of formal financial education were a handful of economics classes and an accounting class in college. Year to Day, I am beating the S&P500 in my self-directed brokerage account because I taught myself how financial markets work with various resources publicly available.
