I am outraged that you are trying to tell me what I can or can't invest in. Leveraged funds are a critical part of my investment strategy to limit risk. I am fully aware of the risks using inverse funds.Furthermore, they are an important part of having market checks and balances. I would urge you to not place any restrictions on these funds.
Please do not impose additional regulations on inverse and leveraged funds. These are valuable tools used by investors to balance their portfolios, and also to hedge against macro economic risk. Without the benefit of these funds the ability to hedge the risk in my investment portfolio would be greatly diminished. Please let investors decide what they should invest in.
This makes absolutely no sense to limit and create such a hurdle regarding leveraged and inverse funds. Investments have risks associated with them, and the funds' and ETFs' prospectuses clearly show and demonstrate the risks associated to them. There is no difference than buying a regular fund on margin to mimic the leveraged return. Let investors invest how we'd like
I regularly enjoy being able to trade in leveraged funds as a limited part of my investment strategies. I am able to afford risks associated with such trading and find the existing information and warnings supplied by Fidelity Investments more than sufficient to keep me aware of such risks. Please do not further restrict my use of such funds.
Pushing unregulated crypto to the masses is nothing short of racketeering. I am a risk professional. Your industry has ZERO creditability in this arena. These products are the only thing protecting retail investors from the FED fueled, financially engineered, derivatives death star. FINRA's attempt at regulation is an indictment on the financial systems lack risk management.
No! We do not need further restrictions, permissions from mommy, brokers or big government to invest. We do not need tests or any other restrictive device. Markets are efficient, most investors know the risks and will allocate their resources accordingly. A clearly worded prospectus that explains the risks specific to that instrument are all thats needed.
I believe that leveraged ETFs have their place. They allow a smaller dollar amount of capital to be at risk for roughly the same potential returns. They certainly are not for everybody and one should be made very aware of the risks, tracking errors, and internal costs. It should be stressed to the public about the pros and the cons of their usage and the importance of position sizing if
It is wrong to restrict access to certain investments to only connected, "wealthy" or otherwise selected investors. All market participants are provided investment prospectuses that detail the risks of each fund. It is up to each individual to decide for themselves if the fund aligns with their risk tolerance and objectives, and then research the market to make an informed
- My broker already has established adequate risk assessment, risk level determination, and trade warnings / education that allow me to trade options, inverse and leveraged etfs/funds/etns, etc. - I – not regulators – should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. - Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
I have read about the risks involved concerning leveraged and inverse funds. These products allow me to make allow me to trade and profit when the market is volatile and I do not feel restrictions should be put into place. I took a very expensive stock trading class and I understand the risks and feel comfortable making these trades.
