ProShares is same as all other investment such as equities, options, futures, and Forex. They has it's own risk and reward. Restrictions on one asset is not fair. Investors should have the right and freedom to pick their investment; and should not have to go through any special process of test. I am strongly object.
I am competent to decide whether leveraged or inverted instruments are appropriate investments for my portfolio, and do not want to be required to pass a test or observe a cooling off period. The current restrictions and guidelines in place for these investment vehicles are adequate, and more limitations to individual Liberty would be serious over reach by FINRA.
I 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. Explain that you are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. Tell regulators you do not need these measures imposed on you.
I believe that individual investors should not be restricted from the purchase or sale of inverse or leveraged funds. Individual investors should be able to choose the publicly listed securities that are right for their risk and return objectives without going through extra steps such as income/asset verification, knowledge tests, or any other special process.
I don't think regulators should make the determination what investments are appropriate for my needs. There should not be obstacles to investing in inverse or leveraged funds. I am comfortable with taking on that risk. Adding a regulator-approved test in order to be able to invest in these funds is an unnecessary intrusion on my right to invest as I see fit.
Please do not restrict my rights to choose what I invest in. Any publicly traded stock should be just that. Public. If I want to buy it I should not have to pass any kind of test. I am just as smart as any regulator and am able to make my own investing decisions.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. I 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.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
We 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.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to our
investment strategies.
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me, without the government putting restrictions in place such as a test to determine my fitness to invest my own money. It is my hard earned money and I can invest it as I see fit. Leveraged and inversed funds are important to me in my overall portfolio.
The strategies implemented in leveraged and inverse publicly traded funds are important to me and should have no special process or tests for investors like me. I am capable of understanding the ins and outs and risks associated with these type of funds and they help me protect my investments and help with overall returns to my portfolio.
