The proposed regulation is unnecessary and counter productive. I have been investing my own money for 40 years. I don't need assistance or restrictions from regulators. I use a leveraged ETF as an inflation hedge and it has performed very well in that function over the past year. We don't have many options to protect ourselves from inflation and your regulation would take
I use leveraged ETFs everyday and am well aware of the risks involved. Pulling retail access from them cripples the idea of a free market. Removing them does not make the market any less risky for retail investors, there are plenty of retail investors who have lost it all on worthless meme stocks such as $GME. This proposal makes no sense once its thought out and reduces 0 risk.
Been investing on a number of crypto currency. No has the right to control or force me to go through anyone or control my actions. If I Lose, that's on me. If I gain, that's on me as well. I'm sick and tired of people thinking they have to put there hand in on money they have no right to have. In the 1st place. If I choose to have aid. I will choose to Go to That aid
I am an individual investor and have been trading since 1993. I have been through many difficult markets and I have increased my net worth many times over.
I have some of my money with a M.L. Wealth Advisor which I pay fees and I have been beating them hands over fists for years. Perhaps you should consider restricting Wealth Advisors as well.
Gentlemen, I have a masters degree in Engineering. I have lost many thousands of dollars in these transactions. I have also lost more in traditional stock and real estate investments as well as made some earnings. My suggestion is that you can not protect me from myself and this applies to others. I understand the good intentions. However please consider going lightly with qualifications and
I often use leveraged and inverse funds to hedge my investments at a cheaper cost/risk than using options. They have been an important part of my portfolio when the markets are facing volatility and have allowed me to not divest from other securities through market uncertainty. I am well aware of the risk involved and how they function. I do not need protection from myself and my investment
Inverse funds are a great option to hedge against other family assets and liabilities. We utilized ProShares UltraShort 7-10 Year Treasury to hedge against rising interest rates for debt that needs to be refinanced in the near future. This was a well thought out and planned strategy, that has worked perfectly. Once the debt is refinanced we would look to liquidate the ProShares UltraShort 7-10
Using inverse indexes and leveraged funds is a key component of my investing strategy. It has helped immensely in the early portion of this year with significant market declines. My accounts are performing well ahead of the market. This has been true in the past several years through the use of both leveraged and inverse funds. Please allow me to continue to use these funds without proving my
Please consider the small investors who want to hedge their investments in times of turbulence. The small investor has few places to go because the larger firms which might assist with hedging will not do business with a small investor. The rich get richer generally at the expense of the small investor, More tools like these, well monitored, are the better solution. Taking away tools like
I have been investing for about 50 years, during that time I have seen a growing manipulation of the equity markets by bankers at the Federal Reserve. They have fattened there own trading accounts by creating excessive liquidity and pushing markets well beyond rational levels (creating a wealth effect). There is no longer value on the "long" side. Inverse ETFs provide a means for value
