To me, it is absolutely absurd that short positions are not required to be reported. If you require long positions to be reported, why shouldn't short positions? It seems as though the regulators are far too concerned with keeping the status quo and are letting hedge funds run wild, in a largely unregulated portion of the market. We have seen numerous short squeezes this year arising from
The current regulations on "complex securities" is adequate. FINRA and SEC doesn't need any further new regulations in complex securities. These complex securities have the same risk and volatility as buying a individual stock. Geared ETF and Inverse are for advance investor and trader. The current agreement with brokers is adequate. I studied geared and crypto trust for hundreds
My main focus is on both leveraged and non-levered index ETF's for the DOW, Nasdaq and S&P, both long and inverse. I feel more comfortable investing in the market as a whole as opposed to individual stocks. They also allow me to protect my IRA on downturns as I am not allowed to short individual stocks and would find that far riskier. Please reconsider your proposed changes.
I would like to know when a stock has more volume for inflow compared to outflow, how does the share price still keep going down? Additionally, When a stock has a "ladder attack" to it, where is the SEC to step in and stop any manipulation? It is not understandable that a hedge fund company can use naked shorts, which everyone knows exists, yet nothing it done to combat the practice.
I am a retail investor who enjoys testing and using various stock picking strategies for a part of my portfolio. I don't have any professional training in the workings of the stock market. However, I was a math major in college and a computer scientist by trade. I think I know enough to understand the basic concept of a leveraged ETF and/or inverse ETFs. I also use an analytical
I really getting tired of these hedge companies driving down the stock every other second total suppression we have everything stacked against us as retail.all this naked shorting, failure to deliver’s , trade off line , hiding short shares in options itm and Otm . They have hundreds of millions shorts hidden and kicking them down the road . Say they covered GME or closed. It mathematically
In my 20 years of investment business I have never seen a more blatant illegal manipulation like I have witnessed in AMC Stock. This must have over 3 BILLION synthetic shares that have been sold short. The failure to delivers are beyond counting. The hedge fund backed media lies on a constant basis even creating fake companies to cause fear to try and manipulate the price of the stock down. (See
So Investments are too complex for us "regular" people? Discrimination much? Investments are only for those with a high net worth? Discrimination much? It's 2022, the time where we all talk about discrimination and how we can fix it. Well with what's been coming out of lawmakers hands in 2022, has been fueling the discrimination fire. I started investing in 2021 when CoinBase
Eliminate dark pools Fines should be greater than the profit hedge made from the illegal activity Jail time is needed for market manipulation. Short positions should be forcibly closed out if illegal market manipulation is found and trading rights of those involved should be revoked. Shorting taking place in the dark pool needs to be disclosed to the public. If an institution buys shares in the
Leverage etfs do not represent any more risk than the basic inherent nature of stock market. How does a market pricing of NFLX at 600 and going down to $180 in a short order ( or price of AMC going up and down without rhyme and reason) present less risk than a leverage ETF. The whole premise of SEC is wrong. Stock market is a manipulated market and a by product of so many countervailing forces.
