I do not want anything restricting the way I invest, such as, net worth requirements, education, training, etc. I want to be able to use whatever is awhile to increase my ROI and reduce volatility. Leveraged and inverse funds are two of the tools that I currently use to reach those ends.
I oppose restriction to my right to invest
This is an overreach by the regulators. Not necessary! Do the right thing let me choose to investments I have made the educated decision to invest in. Everyone knows investments are a risk so don't use that to hide behind like you are protecting someone. You are taking away our rights to invest.
Proshares ETFs provides individual investors options to short and use leverage without taking excessive losses beyond the original investment and should be allowed to persist
I own some shares in ProShares, a mutual fund that I own as a hedge - in case the market turns nasty (as it is now), at least something will keep its value. ProShares is a publicly traded company, and bought on the advice of Vanguard, the largest brokerage/ mutual fund company in the world. I don't like you "protecting" me by telling me what I can and cannot invest in
I should be able to chose my own investments, not regulators.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment activity.
I am an adult and do not need intervention by regulators.
Please do not limit our ability to invest freely in the way we choose. We shouldnt have to jump through hoops such as qualifications and tests in order to invest/trade.
Over many many years Ive developed very rigorous risk management processes, which is part of any investors journey in the market. Dont penalize those of us who have good risk management because an uneducated few choose to invest
I am opposed to your limitations you want to put on my investments
I am a 79yo conservative investor that uses SH & DOG to hedge my long positions. This enabled me to lose only 7% when the market dropped 31% in early 2020. Please do not take away my ability to do this Thank you.
I am not in favor of limiting investor choice when it comes to these types of funds, which allow investors an element of diversification with reduced committment of funds, which is especially useful given the high degree of correlation of all common stocks and bonds in the current Fed-related stock market correction. It may allow investors the ability to confiently hold core portfolios long term
