Hello
Everyone should have access to these products. If there's concerns about ignorance using them properly then make a short youtube video required to buy them.
They are useful instruments during volatility and should be embraced, not shunned.
Investors can make their own decisions. Keep Big government out of it.
Apply the rules fairly. If you restrict leveraged and inverse funds apply them to ALL such funds, including bitcoin and other crypto.
If you raise the bar, inverse and leveraged do not need the same high bar as illiquid and opaque investments. The bar should be far short of those for accredited investors.
Every individual should be allowed to invest in their future in a
manner of free choice be it real estate or 401k , stocks or Cryptology , Silver or Gold ...
There should be more transparency in the stock market and fines for illegal activities that are actual of a significant magnitude.
I use leveraged and inverse ETFs as short term investments and its important to allow retail investors the same flexibility to trade in rising and falling markets as hedge funds. I understand the risk/reward profile of these and would be devastated if the option were taken away from me just because Im a retail investor.
i love the use of leveraged etfs. i find them much safer than trading individual stocks that can implode and never recover
As individuals and investors is a free market/country we should have the ability to invest in all security with in the stock market with out being restricted.
When you start regulating who can go into Casinos and Gamble then you can come after the stock market. Not Before!
I am grad to see additional regulation and protection for unsophisticated consumers and investors. Also corporate stock buy backs should be outlawed.
Please don't make these restrictions. We are aware of the risks as all brokerages and Applications have disclaimer while trading leveraged stocks.
