Investors are fully aware that leveraged investments carry greater risk. Brokers remind us of that ad nauseum.
Thanks for your concern, we do not require further help in this area, and would appreciate your staying out of the way.
Please reconsider this action. There are enough safeguards and warnings in place currently. The issuers are really good about letting the buyer know how these work, and risks involved. They are an important part of my trading strategy.
Thank you for your consideration.
Losing the ability to invest in leveraged funds would put me at a financial disadvantage. It would disrupt long-term investment strategies I've already undertaken. I understand the risks and only use them as a limited part of my overall assets.
I want the freedom to use investment vehicles I deem appropriate for my risk tolerance. leverage seems to be a problem for the large institutional investor. Individuals like myself use leverage at a much lower exposure. Regulate the institutional investor not the individual.
As a retiree who invests in these securities I understand very well the risks and benefits involved. I and Im sure most others who trade in this space are more than capable of deciding where to invest. This is another government overreach and should be abandoned.
It is proper for a free responsible person to be exposed to all of the public. Freely choosing the risk and reward could help shape future market because people may get more depressed and worried if you took financial tools away.
I know the risks of leveraged and inverse funds. I use them to enhance my portfolio. I'm an educate person, and do not need someone telling me what I can or can't do with my investments. I don't need to take a test.
I have been investing in leveraged funds for more than a decade. I understand the risk that why I invest in this fund only 1/3 of the money and I keep the rest in my savings account. If the Nasdaq goes down, I limit my loss to 33%.
I'm a responsible investor, taking calculated risk. Additionally, the primary reason for levered funds is an insurance policy against my existing portfolio of assets. It has a place in my portfolio and I think FINRA and the Govt should stay out of it.
Please dont limit the use of leveraged funds within retirement accounts. The ability to choose funds and stocks allowing for Financial freedom is a cornerstone to American principles. I ask that you allow people to choose their own level of acceptable risk.
