STOP THIS INSANITY! DO NOT PREVENT ME FROM TRADING EFTs! It's hard to believe that another agency is again wanting to control/restrict me, telling me how and what to trade. I am 64 years old, have been trading stocks since 1998 (24 years now). I am the only one that should be deciding on the risk of whatever stock or ETF that I (not FINRA) am going to invest in. I am abundantly capable of
I have been an investor for many years now.
I have to say, I'm very upset with the FED and the way they have been manipulating the currency since the 08 market correction.
From that time on they destroyed the bond markets diversification capabilities to the stock market, because it now runs in conjunction with the market. At present my "Short" position is the only
Dear Sirs, I believe our ability to buy inverse ETFs should not be limited, for the following reason: Betting against a given stock, fund or commodity is a valid and, mostly, healthy way to establish a fair valuation of such. However, short sales, put options and futures are more dangerous than inverse ETFs, where one's losses are limited to the amount invested.
Leveraged ETFs are very helpful financial tool for retail investors. They are important to my investment approach.

Cut out the babysitting. What part of free market is going over your head? Do something useful like preventing selling short more stocks than there are in the float.

Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) a proposed rule change to extend temporary Supplementary Material .17 (Temporary Relief to Allow Remote Inspections for Calendar Year 2020 and Calendar Year 2021) under FINRA Rule 3110 (Supervision) to include calendar year 2022 inspection obligations through June
I believe as an experienced investor that I should be able to use leveraged funds to enhance returns on my portfolio or in the case of inverse funds to hedge and protect on the downside for my portfolio. If not allowed to choose my only option would be to open a margin account and use leverage open myself to possibility of margin calls or to potentially short a stock that has unlimited risk.
Greetings, Not sure why FINRA has not come out with a report in the last three quarters, but the information it provides is completely valid and incredibly important to me as an individual investor. Also, I wish their was some working enforcement in place to discourage naked short selling and the unethical trade practices being used to manipulate a stocks true value.
You don’t need a specialized degree to read a company’s financial statements and glean valuable information that can help you make your investment decisions. There’s a wealth of financial data about a company’s operations, investments, indebtedness and much more easily accessible to investors who know where to look.
All investments carry some degree of risk. Stocks, bonds and funds can lose value. Even conservative, insured investments such as certificates of deposit issued by a bank or credit union, come with inflation risk. They may not earn enough over time to keep pace with the increasing cost of living.
