I oppose the proposed restrictions on my right to invest in inverse and leveraged funds. I am not a professional investor, but as one who has managed most of my own investments for 20 years, I realize that there is inherent risk in financial investing (as in all of life). Investing in leveraged and inverse funds is an integral part of my investment strategy and I do it recognizing that there
Leveraged and Inverse funds allow investors who are not wealthy enough to participate in hedge funds to manage their portfolio risks. By removing or limiting access to these funds FINRA would hurt us common investors and once again cater to the richest people and large institutions under the charade of protecting the common investor. All that is required is that a warning be provided every time
I have been investing for a long time and understand my own risks. Investing in publicly traded funds should not be limited to the wealthy. As part of an overall portfolio I use leveraged fund to hedge investments and increase returns. I am not borrowing funds to do this and understand they may be extremely volatile at times. I can choose the portion of my portfolio I want to expose to this risk
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest by not being allowed to buy leveraged and inverse funds at risk. I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. There should be no special process I have to go through to invest in public securities when I am capable of
I oppose any restrictions or limits to the use of leveraged and inverse funds. I use them as a small portion of my portfolios to regulate my risk exposure during difficult markets and make efficient use of my investment capital to enhance returns during good markets. I fully understand how leveraged and inverse funds work and their associated risks. I don't want regulations put in place to
I, not regulators or anyone else should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. It's my money and I and only I should decide what I can pursue with it. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the already rich or privileged. With every trade there is an inherent risk and this should be decided by me, not someone or some
I am totally against this proposal to increase the complexity and difficulty of investing in leveraged funds. I'm an adult Citizen of the US, a Veteran, and do NOT need the Government to make my decisions on how much risk I want to take and when. It's MY CHOICE to risk, win or lose. Are you telling me if I don't have certain amount of money, I cant do it. Isn't this exactly
I believe in a free market. What this democratic country is about. I understand the risks associated with leverage investments, I believe e it is unfair and wrong to limit our freedom to invest, especially with inverse etfs. It is up to me to decide the risk I am willing to take. To impede me from investing in inverse etfs in the start of a bear market is not fair. It goes against the principles
I have been investing in TQQQ, a Proshares investment tool for over a year and have made a lot of money with it. It has an element of risk to it. I understand the core of how it is invested. I know that it is designed for profits on a daily basis. I am not a day trader but the platform clearly follows a pattern of the NASDAQ, and is predictable. With the Fidelity platform it is easy to get
My experience over the last several years has demonstrated the value in modest and moderate usage of leveraged ETFs for ordinary investors such as myself. Fully aware of the risks, I have made significant gains which would not have been possible otherwise. Requiring these additional steps would cut off all but the wealthy from the benefits of these assets, forcing investment in instruments which
