We as investors should be able to choose our investments as we see fit. If there are excessive risks they should be noted but let the buyer beware! I prefer to hedge ( especially within IRA's) with leveraged ETF's as options are often not allowed within IRA's. The ability to hedge should not be only for the privileged. Thank you for considering our input!
Please do not impose further regulations on leveraged ETFs. Investors such as myself use these vehicles responsibly to invest in targeted asset classes. We fully realize the risks involved, please do not restrict our ability to invest in these products.
You shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I'm capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
The attemp of this measure on your part is clear You want only the rich to profit on events of future economic turbulence - not the low life non ruling class. Ive done my research and Im well educated on what these funds do. It doesnt take a genius or a class. Go find something else to regulate.
The SEC's proposed regulations are discriminatory against regular retail investors and favor only wealthy or institutional investors. The government has already rigged the market with the gangster activities of the Federal Reserve and Treasury buy lumping on trillions of dollars of debt to prop up the market. This latest slap in the face to retail investors can't go unnoticed. Stop this
Why would you prevent me from making investments of my own choosing. Markets go up and down. Inverse ETFs provide a way for my self-directed IRA to make gains when the market is going down. This year alone, my IRA is up while the general market (s&p, Nasdaq, Russel) are down. I couldn't have that performance without using inverse ETFs. I understand the risk of inverse and leveraged
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
This is highly constricting and counterproductive to a market that is already under threat!!
Dear regulators: I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. I should have right to choose the public investments.
