Hello, I heard that there's going to be a regulation on leveraged and inverse funds. I know that the market hasn't been good lately and I assume it negatively impacted many individuals, but I believe that's similar to the regular stock market. I admit that there are dangeroud funds (TQQQ or SQQQ) but many funds are a good way for people to distribute the stock evenly and many times
As previously announced on March 22, 2024 in a FINRA Trade Reporting Notice, FINRA is implementing enhancements to the FINRA equity trade reporting facilities to support the reporting of fractional share quantities. The enhancements require associated updates to FINRA’s trade reporting guidance, as described in greater detail in the March 2024 Trade Reporting Notice. These enhancements are being
I've been using leveraged ETFs as well as ETNs for years. Why should I suddenly be subject to restrictions on products that I understand the risks for. Investing in these products isn't actually inherently riskier than simply investing in an individual stock, even a popular and widely-owned one (and indeed often is LESS risky, depending on the specifics of the stock).
Should
FINRA announced today that it has fined Morgan Stanley Smith Barney LLC $1.6 million for the firm’s repeated failures to timely close out failed inter-dealer municipal securities transactions and to take prompt steps to obtain physical possession or control of municipal security positions that are short more than 30 calendar days, and related supervisory failures.
Would like more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports. Short sellers get away with too much and its not fair for retail. For example amc, gme, clov.
Short selling may be a necessary evil in the market, but anyone caught with a naked short position should immediately be forced to close their entire position. The absurd reality of selling something that doesn't exist is just that, ABSURD!
Things FINRA should implement: 1. Automated daily reporting of short positions 2. Automated daily reporting of all trading in Dark Pools 3. Automated daily reporting of synthetic shares/naked shorting 4. FTD should be delivered T+2, no exceptions. 5. All data accessible to the public in real time. 6. Force all Market Makers to give retail investors routing options on trades. (option to have your
The actual short interest of AMC is not correctly reflected on the websites provided to public. If FINRA wants to investigate in real, then it has to look up dark pool data and short interest in dark pool and only the orders related to sell are routed through exchange and rest buy orders are routed through dark pool. THIS IS NOT FAIR AS NAKED SHORTING WAS BANNED IN 2008 BUT IT IS SAD TO SEE THAT
I don't agree with this regulation. If you want to restrict the risk, why do you stop for option trading? Also many penny stocks and starting company stocks are more volatile and risky than leverage stocks. Investors need to have variant ways to trade to make profits and hedges. There is no way to regulate our freedom of trading.
Removing an investment option from public investors is not inline with free market ideals that the American stock market was built on. With regulations on what is allowed to be bought and sold by the public hindered it could erode trust in the American stock market. A good example would be how the Chinese stock markets are partially government controlled and therefore the citizens are not
