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. I am capable of understanding my investments and their risks. I do not need
these measures imposed on me
I invested in leverage ETFs for almost 4 years. I would not be able to reach my retirement goals without these products. I have already met all your proposed safeguards through Fidelitys control process, with the exception of a written test. Please have your legal team spend their time on more important issues. Your proposal is mostly redundant and an interference with innovation.
We shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before we can invest in public securities,
like leveraged and inverse funds. We are capable of
understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks. We do not need these measures
imposed on us.
Please note that leveraged and inverse funds help
protect our investments.
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. I 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. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, including cryptocurrency funds such as BITO
We as Americans has the right in invest in stocks and bonds of our choice, not regulators. Why should we have to pass a test to invest, we can do our own research and decide if it is worth the risk to invest our money. Many of us have been in the market for decades, it is not up to you what bonds or businesses we support.
In my opinion Finra needs to stop loading restrictions those don't make sense. Let traders and me decide rules for public investments unless it's protection of my assets. No test process is needed without my approval stupid. Too much government and it's control is not acceptable while filling their own pockets using corruption.
I have routinely used leveraged and inverse ETF's for years both to enhance returns as well as to hedge my portfolio. To restrict their use to a select few is a huge unnecessary government over-reach. The use of leverage and inverse ETFs do not require any "education" or "test". You should look at retail use of options and futures before you look at ETFs.
I oppose the regulation that requires extra testing before I can invest my own money. It is my money. I understand fully when I signed up to be my own trader. I take full responsibility. I do not appreciate the extra steps you are forcing me to do before I can invest in my future. Are there risks? Of course! However, that is for me to decide.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. It is very important that I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities. I am capable of understanding investments and their risks. As such, I should be allowed to invest in any securities as it is my right to free choice as a citizen of this
I am of the strong opinion that individual investors should be able to make their own decisions on the vehicle they choose to invest in. It should not be governed by ones net worth, passing of a test or any other qualifications..if so you are limiting the ability to invest in these instruments to the top few you are once again taking away the ability of the small investor to invest/risk their
