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 would like to see a more open and transparent market with instant short position reporting to the general public. I would also like to see instant reporting of any failure-to-delivers. I think this information should be public to any retail investor. I believe this will help limit manipulation and allow the market to be free and fair.
We need more transparency in the market! No more dark pools. accurate information for everyone including three retail investor. We also need sailors to delivers to happen sooner. We need to crack down on synthetic shorts and unreported information (make the fines bigger) it’s like fraud!
enough is enough. If you are going to short you need to disclose. There is way too much manipulation favoring institutions and market makers. This is supposed to be America where everyone gets a fair shot. As a veteran I beg you to make the markets fair and ENFORCE your rules. The little guy needs you.
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.
Leveraged ETFs are very helpful financial tool for retail investors. They are important to my investment approach. It provides investors access to a basket of stocks and in general it has protection against short raids by hedge funds. Please keep these important investment options around. DO not make retail investors even more weaker by taking this tool away from them.
I am an individual investor for more than 30 years. Inverse leveraged ETFs have played a major part in my success! I am conveniently able to hedge my portfolio from downturns. Without inverse ETFs I would have to take on unlimited risk by shorting.
I strongly discourage any effort to eliminate this valuable portfolio management tool!
The stock market is a crap shot. Volatility has increased tremendously since the DOWN TICK RULE TO SHORT was removed. Whether you buy a leveraged/ inverse fund or NETFLIX, AMAZON, or commodities, they all go up and they all go down. THATS THE GAME. Diversity isnt working now either with bonds AND stocks trading lower. Thats the game.
