I have a number of years of experience investing in leveraged securities and truly hope that you do not restrict investments to these securities as it is my primary investment group.
I oppose limitations to block or restrict my investing activities. All stocks have risk and if measures are sought to restrict a certain commodity then i say stop the whole global market trading as well. This is a gross overreach of FINRA to assume this is in the best interest of the investor. Tsla, amzn, nflz, fb, etc are significantly riskier than a leveraed etf based on the broad market.
I oppose the regulations being considered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority for the restrictions to my RIGHT TO INVEST. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies...
To whom it may concern,
The proposed rule is totally against capitalist markets. The whole nature of free markets and security trading is for people to be to decide where to invest. If they lose their investment, it should be their sole responsibility, just like it is when they gain.
I should be able to choose which investments are right for me. Most people take out mortgages (effectively leveraging their investment), I instead choose to invest in leveraged securities. These are a part of, and not my whole, portfolio. Leverage shouldn't be an option only available for those willing to invest in real estate or to privileged investors.
I cant believe you would attempt to limit my ability to invest in publically traded funds while allowing the continued manipulation of the market by the computer traded algorithimic front end trading which disadvantages the typical person investing and drives the market incessantly in one direction or the other from pure momentum. Why not reinstate some of the old rules such as the uptick rule
To whom it may concern.
While I am not an investment professional, I an a United
States Citizen. It is my right to spend and invest my money as I see fit, regardless of the outcome.
Since the government began trying to "protect me" by establishing large failed programs such as SSI, My ability to provide for my family and retirement has been severely constrained.
I would suggest
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.
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. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their
We need less regulation, not more.
