The market is completely unbalanced when it comes to retail trading versus institutional trading. We need more transparency especially when it comes to institutions or hedge funds hiding their positions within the dark pools. They hide these positions and FTD's in the dark pool and through options trading. It is absolutely apparent there is naked shorting going on with certain stocks in the
Have now studied the stock market and how groups like CITADEL have been absolutely stealing from the Global Investment Community while SEC/FINRA/LEGISLATORS/PRESIDENT are simply turning a blind eye to Naked Shorting/handling FTD's and being able to manipulate stock prices by using borrowed shares in DARK POOL TRADING. Ken Griffin needs to feel the pain that he has caused the world retail
How can AMC be the largest traded stock and the price go down? You people know this is going on. It’s just the little guy again big money and egos! This isn’t fair! Everyone deserves an even playing field. Please do what’s right and stop the naked shorting. Thank you.
I employ a mix of stocks, and both leveraged and non-leveraged ETFs to achieve investment goals for over 10 years. ETFs provide a facile means to establish both long and short positions when markets reach extreme levels. Non availability of inverse and leveraged ETFs would make establishing planned portfolio positions difficult, if not impossible.
The risks and benefits of leveraged ETFs are well known to investors. I should be able to invest in a product that I research and feel comfortable investing in. If we regulate leveraged etfs, what about regulating home purchasing (5x leverage) or the actions of Wall Street.. where large players can easily manipulate single stocks through short selling or otherwise?
Comments:In a capitalst society such as ours, I see no reason to regulate leveraged & inverse ETF's. They are simpler than shorting stocks or using put's & calls. I have found that they correlate to their 1X base very close. Their usually is no limitations even in a retirement account. Please, please we don't need this senseless regualation. Thank you, Roger Smith
To whom it may concern: I would like to know if there are plans to repair the fines in regards to short interest reporting, naked shorts and dark pool trading? I think that naked shorts should be fined based on the quantity of fake shares multiplied by the price of the share in question. So for 5 million fake shares at say $25 per share would result in a $125 million fine. This is a fair way,
This is great and all along with all the new regulations by the SEC, DTCC, FINRA, etc. However, these regulations are toothless in nature and are either not enforced by regulators who look the other way or they impose a very minimal fine that does not affect the institutions violating the law. There are a set of rules for the retail investor then there is a set of rules for market makers and
Corporate mergers and acquisitions can have a significant impact on the value of stock held by investors. But apart from the potential for sudden price changes for impacted shares, what else do investors need to know about mergers and acquisitions?
There needs to be much more clarity, no self reporting, frequent third party analysis, bigger punishmemts for rule breakers. If a HF/MM can earn more than they are fined then its a business cost, they need to be fined double the profit plus face criminal proceedings.
