The government including any person working for said government needs to stay out of our private or public trading decisions. Overstepping by making a test for low IQ people is not how you make people feel like they matter. I am the only one that can decide what I want to invest in.
Stop trying to control every person in the US.
Good Evening, I support these changes. I’ve have experienced the consequences of not having these rules in place and had lost a lot of confidence in investing in the financial system. Not having these changes in place also make me worry about a complete collapse of the financial system. These proposed changes have restored a lot of my confidence. Please implement these changes as soon as possible
1. You not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. 2. You shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before you can invest in public securities. Explain that you are capable of understanding your investments and their risks
I object to the efforts of FINRA to limit my ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. Most of our monthly income comes from leveraged funds, CEFs, BDCs, MLPs, etc. I should not have to go through any special process like passing a test to be able to invest in the manner I want to. It is my money, I should be able to invest how I want.
I, not regulators, should be free to determine what public investment are suitable for myself and my family.
I'm fully capable of understanding the risks inherent in leveraged and inverse public securities products without passing a test from regulators.
Products such as these are quite useful for me to partially hedge and enhance my investment returns and should be available to
Dear Big Government,
It is not your place to tell me how or where I should invest MY hard earned money. I do not need to take a "test" in order to invest MY money where I see fit.
Like other funds, the prospectus of leveraged and inverse funds fully disclose risks they pose. These funds are important to my overall investment strategy.
Leveraged and inverse ETFs and funds are not fundamentally different than other investment choices, all of which carry risk.
For many of us these ETFs form an important part of our overall investing strategy. We, not the regulators, should have the freedom and attendent responsibility to select and use these instruments. There should be no need to pass a test or have other restrictions imposed.
It is completely wrong for the government to prevent individual Americans to not be able to purchase leveraged and inverse funds. Nor should investors be required to pass tests before they can make such purchases.
It is truly none of the federal governments business how I buy my shares and what I buy.
Please desist from this terribly mistaken path you are on and drop they idea. Thank you!
Individual investors should have the same access to all kinds of securities including leveraged and inverse funds as institution investors in a free market. I understand how leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I am fully capable of managing my own money and making my own investment decisions. I do not want and need to take a test to approve myself to anyone.
I oppose restrictions on our right to invest in public investments. We shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before one can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. We are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.
