The National Association of Securities Dealers, Inc., the New York Stock Exchange, Inc., and a committee of the Securities Industry Association have developed a joint memorandum that
The types of investments that could potentially be impacted by SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15 is lengthy and diverse, including Leveraged and Inverse Funds, and can legitimately be incorporated as part of a comprehensive investment strategy. These are publicly traded instruments and I am an experienced, educated, and informed investor. I should NOT need to jump through additional hoops to be "
I want to firmly protest the proposed restrictions on inverse trading being considered. Concise cautions for inverse funds are appropriate as is regulatory oversight to prevent fraud in their operation as should be applied to all financial instruments. In my dealings regarding inverse funds precautions are already supplied by the funds themselves and the brokerages like Charles Schwab that
Hello, I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. Regulators should not be able to restrict the public from investing. We investors are making informed and educated decisions based on market factors and the economy. It is rude to assume regular investors are not 'smart' enough to make their own decisions. It would be fundamentally un-American in all that is business to impose these
Dear Sirs and Madams: As a former managing director of a broker dealer I can tell you with certainty that regulations for leveraged and inverse ETFs are long past due. Although I have over 45 years of investment experience I was also ill informed about their characteristics and basically lost all of the money in my IRA which I luckily could afford. Now that I understand them I am profiting
I OPPOSE restrictions on the right to invest. In particular: All investors not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that fit their circumstances. Public investments need to be available to the public, not just those investors considered acceptable by regulators. Investors should not be vetted by regulators--through the passing of a test or other means--before being allowed
As a retail investor, I would like to even the playing field with institutional investors by allowing us the same access to information that they have, especially regarding short positions. Also, in addition to that, I would like short positions to have to be reported daily by no later than 30min after closing bell. This is MORE than enough time for them to calculate their total shorts taken that
I would love to have complete transparency in the market. Synthetic, naked shorts, all of it. Regulate the trading to make it fair. No high frequency trading algorithms that can easily manipulate the market and prevent retail investors from having a fair shot. I would really like to see all short information reported daily. Lastly, actual enforcement by the SEC of malpractice, instead of slaps on
I applaud FINRA’s proposed rule changes and support any rule that makes short interest visible to all investors. Free and fast information leads to better price discovery for all. Buried and outdated short interest reports serve only those who have short positions they wish to remain hidden and those who abuse FTD and naked shorting loopholes to manipulate prices. These actions hurt all investors
Hello FINRA, There needs to be way more transparency when it comes to short selling. It seems short sellers have endless loopholes that allow them to “hide” their true short positions. It certainly appears the lack of rule enforcement and lack of short sell information gives the hedge funds and MMs an unfair upper hand compared to retail investors. Fairness, enforcing rules and providing all
