I manage my IRA in a Schwab account and without the ability to short utilize inverse ETF's to help hedge in this bearish environment. I have been trading for a number of years and am aware of the risk of leveraged ETF's and stick with single leverage products.
Please leave leverage ETF do not ban them Please just been using margin options and short selling and make broker dealers have their clients do a course on it to see if theyre competent enough investing in them
This suggestion to restrict is UnAmerican and is counter-productive. The ETFs make it easy to go long or short the markets just like the big companies and billionaires do.
You should not discriminate against individuals, that is illegal.
Thank you for considering an alternative view.
"Proprietary" long positions should be reported should they contain previous short interest despite a strategy change. As long as it's "guaranteed hedged" it's ok? Peak clown market.
Quit allowing shorts, do your jobs. Put an end to dark pool abuse….you and other “regulating” or overseeing groups are just as much of a problem and just as guilty for allowing these abuses
We need the transparency and FAIRNESS in our markets. What do they have to hide? Why NOT report short positions? Does it give an advantage too not disclose them? This is WAY overdue!!
Common investors should be allowed to short and go long on the market. By not allowing the common investor to buy these instruments you are only allowing only the professional investors to make money off the common investor. Allow a level playing field!
We need to see more accurate short interest data I believe it’s not accurate and the fact that citadel can make the markets and invest in them and double dip and manipulate is unbeliveble.
The dark pools need to be removed to restore retail investor confidence. Full disclosure of short positions on a monthly basis. Rein in the hedge fund manipulation or the whole market will eat itself.
Want more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports. Also want rule for brokers to mandatorily have no share lending by default with an option to opt in.
