We need access to ALL data that funds and banks get access too. In the same time period they get it. If this is a “free market” then nobody gets an advantage. Currently big banks and funds get the advantage over retail traders of having access to data faster than retail traders. This needs to change. Any data relevant to short selling needs to be completely transparent.
I would like to see these changes implemented as soon as possible. Given the current state of the market and the illegal nature of naked shorting securities, this would be a breath of fresh air. Transparency is key to a fair market and as it currently stands, the market is all bit opaque to individual investors. In order to maintain the faith of individual investors I strongly believe it is
I believe us as investors should have the freedom to choose the investments that fit our objectives and risk appetite. No special requirements should be implemented in order to do this. I see leveraged and inverse ETFs as an alternative to stock derivatives in my portfolio.
ABSOLUTELY PUT THE BRAKES ON INVESTORS! You NEEDED TO CONTROL COMPUTER TRADING, TOO! IN FACT, DO US ALL A FAVOR AND TAX EVERY STOCK TRANSACTION, NO MATTER WHAT KIND, AND ASSESS INCOME TAX WITHHOLDING AT THE TIME OF THE TRANSACTION!
I believe that its a right to be able to trade whatever stock or etf I want. Regulating them so retail traders cant trade them and only the market makers can is not fair. Everyone should be able to trade what they want.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my
investment strategies. Its hard to focus on one stock and its always better to buy leveraged ETF and minimize risk .Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
Is this for real? Why can't I invest my own money in stock I choose? I'm not a child. I research then if I'm comfortable with a company I invest. This is the dumbest invasive regulation! You cannot tell people what to do with their hard earned money
These products are useful to a informed trader. Removing these would be like dictating what people can invest in. What's next, all stocks under 5 dollars or 1 dollar. It is our right to make these choices. Don't take my rights away.
For 20 years, FINRA’s Trade Reporting and Compliance Engine, known as TRACE, has contributed to reduced trade execution costs, facilitated price formation, aided regulatory programs and protected investors, as detailed in a recent blog commemorating this milestone anniversary. As an economist, I’d argue TRACE’s impact extends. For me, some of the real impact is in the research it has enabled.
We need more transparency in the stock market. The market’s volatility doesnt match with the data we have at the end of the day we get information later than others and that is not true capitalism.
