I am quite capable of making my own decisions thank you very much. If I want to invest MY money in staid and safe vehicles I will, if I want to take a bit more risk, that is MY choice.
Restricting individual right to invest in funds or any legal investment is not in the best interest of American citizens. Requiring a test of some sort or sign off on the risk involved would be a better option to address these concerns.
The proposed regulations to protect investors from high risk investment options are not in my best interest. Better to have investor warnings when purchasing them but not specific requirements based on knowledge or net worth.
We have always had the ability to trade stocks and funds that we have determined to trade. We understand the risks and if people don't then they just need to take responsibility for our trading or not trade at all.
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. Public investments should be available to all the public-not just the wealthy. I believe that investors of this area are able to understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks without taking a test.
As an investor, I would like to be able to choose the best investments for my personal situation. I have access to a financial planner and I am well informed of the risks in trading leveraged securities.
I am against any further regulation.
SQQQ is a protection for stock account, if forbidden to treat, there is no way for individual stock holders to protect their account other then by options, which is very risk. I do hope FINRA can reconsider the deletion of SQQQ. Thank you!
Do not restrict my ability to use leveraged or inverse funds. It is my money after all and an important part of my investment strategy. I understand the risks involved and have used these vehicles for years without incident.
Adding any regulation that limits individual investors like myself from investing in all instruments, regardless of what presumed risk is inherited, gives advantages to corporate finance firms, and implicitly promotes wealth inequality.
I regularly use and trade these products. They have been. Great resource and I understand the risk. The prospectus makes that very clear. Options are far more dangerous but dont have nearly the same hurdles to use that are being proposed.
