in the interest of fairness i believe the individual investor should have the ability to trade like the institutions and politicians.
I approve of these proposals. Please stop naked short selling and increase transparency in the market. Also, eliminate dark pools
We can start with better transparency. The simple fact is that there are systemic issues with the creation of shares to borrow based on future volumes, failures to deliver, and shorting in general. While appreciated, and needed, the solutions to these do not lie in the resolution of transparency alone. Removing the capability to generate future transactions to borrow from, use for offsetting
Shorting stocks should be illegal! It is only a way to manipulate price! If you wanna play you gotta pay!!!
I regard ProShares Short S&P as a viable alternative method of hedging portfolio risk.
I urge you to let investors continue to use this and similar securities in their portfolios.
Please do not limit my ability, and right, to invest in inverse and leveraged funds. These are tools that are instrumental for balanced, and universal trading. I understand short positions and their risks.
I oppose the restriction of inverse and shorting stocks
Its my money my choice and I can choose To trade how I like, I understand the risks and are happy with them

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my
investment strategies. They are far less risky than shorting individual stocks and are an important tool in my investment toolbox..
I don't need any gubmint regulator telling me what I can or can't buy. How about you investigate the naked shorting and other misbehavior?
