I have been an investor for many years now.
I have to say, I'm very upset with the FED and the way they have been manipulating the currency since the 08 market correction.
From that time on they destroyed the bond markets diversification capabilities to the stock market, because it now runs in conjunction with the market. At present my "Short" position is the only
I am Retired, and manage my IRA myself. I listen carefully to a variety of Investors using TV and Internet sources. I frequently utilize ProShare Leveraged and Inverse Funds in this endeavor. I am fully-aware of the Risks of using these vehicles Long Term. I use them for Short Term Opportunities. I would like to use these Funds well into my Future Retirement Years.
Hello, I realize you think you're helping, but you are definitely not. My ability to invest in leveraged, inverse funds has been the ONLY thing that has allowed me to hedge my portfolio in this year's market downturn. If you take it away, I'll be forced to hedge by shorting individual stacks and hope I choose right. That is much more dangerous.
I have been investing in leveraged ETFs for over 8 years and fully understand the risks associated. I have traded both the long and short versions. I have both lost money and made money. I believe that all investors should have access and the ability to trade in these. The freedom to choose investments that could
help you achieve long-term financial security is extremely important.
I have in crypto space for a little over two years, with a little instruction, anyone can invest. Regulating it like real estate is very short sighted from a taxable income source for government, and it is up to individual to exercise choice of investments and risk vs return. In addition bureacracy does not teach the valuable lessons of experience in investments like success and failure.
I have invested many years and money to learn about short term and leverage investing. Please at the very least, people who are already investing this way should have the opportunity to be grandfathered in if this great way of investing is to be taking away. My models are based on this form of investing. Overall, the market looks bullish for the first two weeks of May 2022.
I already need special approval from the brokerage to trade these products. Leveraged and inverse funds are primarily used to hedge risk and lower volatility. These new regulations will disadvantage smaller investors. Do you want us to return to "selling short" to achieve our goals? If so, that would entail a great deal more risk.
This is a prime example of regulatory
Dear Sirs, I believe our ability to buy inverse ETFs should not be limited, for the following reason: Betting against a given stock, fund or commodity is a valid and, mostly, healthy way to establish a fair valuation of such. However, short sales, put options and futures are more dangerous than inverse ETFs, where one's losses are limited to the amount invested.
I getting tired of branches of government creating new ways of making life harder to get ahead. For retirement, short and long term investment and more. Every time something new trickles down to us common people to better ourselves you decide to regulate the hell of it. Making it harder to be able to do for myself and better protect my future outcome.
I understand that an unprecedented threat by regulators is being considered. The implications will be negative in a free market and this should not take place, I have been trading long and short term leveraged equities for many years, and feel it is my right to do so I know you can stop this intended regulations being considered by the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) Thank you
