Leveraged funds are a stalwart of my investment strategy. If these are no longer available I will lose my ability to invest. These give a means for the small investor to have the ability to make income when the market is in a bear position. They also give a non-positioned way to income off a bull position as these are non-specific ways to invest in a diverse market. They simply follow they S
Investors should be free to make their own decisions in where they would like to invest their money, short or long term, however risky it may be, so long as the fund is honest. Small caps or OTC is just as volatile and risky if not more. Options trading is way more risky than leveraged ETFs as well. You limit retail's tools to hedge or make large gains by stopping us from using these.
I am already anti-capitalist. I despise the system which rewards not merit, but inherited wealth. I cannot possibly fathom why you would want to make my job so much easier- you understand that by depriving average citizens of the right to invest, you are pushing them directly into my waiting arms? I know I shouldnt interrupt my enemy while he is making a mistake, but this? I almost pity the short
I do not support limits on leveraged or inverse funds, they provide a very useful and quite frankly safer alternative to investors like myself that choose to use these instead of options and traditional margin leverage.
They clearly indicate they are short term instruments so when used correctly can be a great tool in the tool belt of the retail investor.
I believe non traditional investment
I've used leveraged and inverse ETFs for decades now with no issues and I strongly oppose restriction of their use. If you are going to start choosing what public investments can and can not be made by individual investors, you will have to lay out a clear rationale for each decision and that will highly likely be perceived as arbitrary leading to multiple issues for you. If your goal
What are you doing and why. This type of investment should not be only used by traders on wallstreet. All things are learned and anyone can learn how to use different investment strategies. WHY let only bankers steal on the short. This is obvious what you are trying to do. Protect bankers money. Well, you should BE working for us, any time you restrict what regular people can do you are screwing
I find it repugnant that unelected officials like yourselves have the audacity to tell me how I can invest my hard earned capital while members of Congress feel that they are entitled to trade on inside information (which is illegal for us "unwashed" ) and allow large funds naked short securities (which is also illegal for us "unwashed" ) and not blink an eye but seem to get
Dear Sirs: I am writing to express my opinion that existing investor access to leveraged ETFs should be maintained. These investments are straightforward (leverage 1X, 2X, 3X, etc.) and every investor must understand that risk is inherent with these investments. As with any other investment. I consider leveraged ETFs to be much less risky than US traded Chinese stocks. The Chinese Variable
In brokerage accounts such as TD Ameritrade, we are free to trade stocks and financial instruments such as leveraged and inverse funds without any pressures of dealing with an actual broker. There is no solicitation or advertising on these sites that points us to any particular fund or stock. Please don't restrict this freedom.
I oppose any restrictions on the ability to freely trade any public commodity. I oppose any trade restriction on any commodity simply because they are leveraged, or reverse leveraged. I trade in these stocks almost daily and they make up a significant portion of my portfolio. A private investor should not have to jump through bureaucratic hoops in order to freely exercise their right to
