Hi
I am Invester from India investing in US stocks. Leveraged ETFs helps in hedging purpose against portfolio losses during market volatility. Therefore access to these products will be very helpful for retail investers.
The market needs a diverse demographic of investors to keep the demand of the diverse stock the market has to offer. This is not an intellectual law to enforce by any regulators of any kind. This is completely from a tilted state of mind to even propose this.
I strongly oppose any changes to regulation as it relates to leveraged products. They offer a funding mechanism for people who cant save. For an aggressive investor, they are much safer that concentrating assets in one stock, with similar volatility and results.
There is a legitimate investment case for these funds. If you restrict these in the way you propose perhaps you should also restrict individual stock holdings; and active mutual funds. The same principals of possible risks and losses apply.
Comments:Leveraged ETFs allows me to invest in a sector, thus avoid trying to pick a stock. I am not a professional investor. I sincerely request that you not take that option away from me. Thank you. Robert George
Comments: Persons buying, investing, in leveraged funds should understand what they are buyng--which is true of any stock or ETF. If they buy without research of the fund or ETF, then they have a bigger problem that will not be solved by regulation. J. Baldwin Smith
This is far left field, but if you made a crypto that does proof of work of validating stock transactions, it could help keep the market regulated and you would have a crypto that scales with the market.
