It is absurd to prevent Americans from investing in any sort of securities that they want to. Risk assessment should be done by the investor, not by government regulators. For example, anyone could invest in a NASDAQ fund. But a leveraged fund gives me 3x the return (and risk) for 1x the investment. I would have to invest 3x as much to get the same return. That just ties up more of my money
Investors have a greater interest in protecting their investments and there is no reason that an investor should not have the choice on how or when they can invest their money in any legal investment opportunity. Public securities including inverse and leveraged funds are yet another investment tool in the arsenal of ways to respond to changes in the market. Having big brother hindering or
I've been investing in leveraged and inverse funds for over 15 years. I would've never been able to build a nest egg for retirement from almost nothing if I did not have the ability to invest in these funds. Please don't take it away.
Leveraged and inverse funds are a hedging tool when I think put option premiums are expensive and/or I am unable to directly short a stock or ETF in my retirement accounts. I also use them to make speculative directional bets where I deem appropriate. Position size is always key in volatile products ,that is just common sense from the offset, or quickly learned by actual trading experience...
Dear Sirs/Madams, It's come to my attention that you are considering regulating so-called complex or leveraged ETFs. As an active small investor, I implore you not to do so. I use these ETFs to hedge risk in the marketplace, and this gives me confidence in my investments, knowing that I can sustain market shocks, as well as to maintain reasonable rates of return. I have been using these for
Leveraged funds have been an important way I have improved returns. Inverse funds have allowed me to reduce risk of market crashes. People should be able to do this without having a high net worth.
I would like to say that I am in favor that the people should decide what shares to buy and what not to buy because it is the peoples money that they are using to get a hold of the shares so they can invest for their retirement or future for their families.
Could someone please inform FINRA that the US is well into the throws of a total societal/financial collapse, as is most of the rest of the planet. Adding layers of burdensome regulation and limiting the public' in which publicly traded securities they may or may not use for speculation, hedging or investment purposes is equivalent to rearranging the deck chairs on the Titanic after it
To may it whom concern,
I believe its unfair to regulate leveraged investments in te middle of a financial "crisis". The stock is deeply down, so it could be a measure that affects an important amount of people and their welth. I, Rafael Sanabria, invested on these ETFs knowing the risk that they imply in my portfolio. Please let us trade by ourselves.
Thank you for listening
[REDACTED] FINRA for considering such a [REDACTED] idea. Another way to snub the freedom of retail investors. Dumb [REDACTED] making this plan can [REDACTED].
