Ive worked in an administrative position for many years and am well versed in the market. I currently invest in some leveraged etf funds. Like all stocks and bonds, there is always a risk. It is up to the individual to do their homework. It would be highly unfair to subject regular investors to having to take a test or to jump through hoops to buy some of these products. Obviously global
Dear Sir or Madam:
I am a responsible, literate adult who is quite capable of researching my own investments. I take full responsibility for my successes and failures as an investor. Now, more than ever, I and other investors need ways to hedge against large drops in the stock market. Your proposal of these restrictions is very suspicious, and actually makes it more obvious that now is the
We don't need more of the nanny state trying to protect us, especially as the federal government creates property and stock market bubbles with their insane federal reserve policies. Perhaps your time would be better spent worrying about the fact the govt is bankrupting the country instead of hand holding investors. Let the free market work. We already get plenty of notification of the
To Regulators, I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds because I have more than 40 years of stock and options trading experience in USA. I am capable of understanding those funds and their risks more than any finance professionals. It is totally against the spirit of law under democratic
I am 71 years old. I have been investing in stocks bonds and especially ETFs since I was 31. My experience is that leveraged ETFs an inverse leverage ETFS Have allowed me to safely invest for 40 years. Without these investment options I believe my long-term financial situation in retirement is at risk. I understand the risks of these investments and invest wisely. I dont need help from regulators
please don’t close or restrict leveraged ETFs. Those are for many years and people made money. If you saw a risk on those you should take action when market was hot during November 2021. Retail investors like me lost money on stock market. If you close or restrict trading thess probably I will not get back my money. I think this is a regulatory scam. Request your kind consideration to have those
I find the inverse funds a valuable tool for a small investor that also trades options. In time like now with a lot of volatility they open up alot of investing options that a long only investor does not even know about. Keep your trading limited to what know and pick good stocks and inverse funds that you understand and a small investor will do just fine. I disagree with the use of naked shorts
Just like I can take a risk on a stock going up, I should likewise be able to take a risk on it going down. Seems like you want to be able to control the market up by flooding us with artificial stimulus ( I consider this endless counterfeiting of our currency) and artificially low interest rates by further increasing our national debt to ridiculous levels but you don't want to suffer the
This is a free country, free to invest how ever we see fit. To have a special process is against the constitution. Just because the US market is about to face the largest collapse of its existence, doesn't mean you should be allowed to stop others from investing because you are going to lose your pants. You can't offer stocks when it benefits you, then take them away when it doesn'
Dear Sirs/Madame, I sincerely regret hearing that you are considering regulating my purchase of public investments! I should be able to invest in what I choose, not have regulators choose for me in a capitalistic country! I frequently invest in leveraged ETFS to moderate stock market volitility and put options for protection as well! I have been using these instruments for many years and
