I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to our investment strategies. Leveraged etfs will run well with enhanced return if the trend is up whereas inverse ETFs help to protect our investments during market correction and downtrend. Hence, public investments, especially hedging, should be available to all of
I regularly maintain positions in 2x leveled ets for the purpose of hedging and to maximize my upside without the use of margin debt or options with expiration dates.
