I oppose restrictions on my right to invest. We should able to choose our investment that is right for us.
The leveraged funds are excellent choices to diversify your investment portfolio. Don't limit them to the selected group of individuals. Otherwise, you are going to make the rich even richer.
I am comfortable trading x2 & x3 ETFs. Please continue that.
Using inverse ETF's is easier for me to follow than going short.
Once again the freedoms afford by this great nation is being stripped away by those who think they have the right to tell me what to do with money I have earned through my efforts. I believe FINRA should leave things as they are, so people can make their own financial decisions.
I oppose restrictions to invest in leveraged and inverse funds and ETFs. I have an MBA in finance and understand how the inverse and leveraged fumnds work. Inverse funds are an important part of my investment process when the market is trending down. I use leveraged funds in strong uptrends and in strong downtrends. I am currently using leveraged inverse funds as a hedge to my long investments.
I love the charts that the leveraged etfs provide. It gives a clear picture of contango costs that futures and options can cause on returns. The leveraged etfs provide a chart of the positives of only 33% leveraged. Futures are 5 to 1 on the SP 500 and out of the money options are super high. All investors need to be in etfs and zero mutual/hedge funds. A small percentage of a portfolio
I am totally against these measures. They prevent us from getting ahead.
There should be no restrictions to my ability to protect my investments by buying leveraged or inverse funds. If the market collapses (or rather WHEN it does )the inverse funds will at least give me a viable amount of recovery.
