I think it’s important to ALL investors that all short shares/failure to deliver shares/ dark pool shares be reported on a honest and legal standing. It’s been pretty clear that this is not happening. The entire stock market needs to be monitored for each settled business day. Please lock out the corruption and deceit from hedge fund companies. They are and solely destroying companies on a daily
Hello, I will keep my comment brief. I am a $XXX,XXX.XX retail investor that humbly supports any and proposed measures to improve transparency and data accuracy for retail investors. While the term “free market” is a farce, I do believe we should have a fair market which currently we do not. Institutional shorting data is horribly unreported given the 2 week delay in reporting in addition to its
I believe it would be a mistake to reduce access to these popular and useful short to medium term trading funds. There is more than enough information in the market web sites on how to use a x3 fund. Extreme risk lies only on a " black swan" event and these events pose similar risks to all investors. I believe that I have benefited from my use of x2 & x3 funds on the SP500. It
I am shocked and disheartened to know that regulations/prospectuses are under consideration to preclude retail investors from trading the Leveraged and Inverse ETFs, such as TQQQ and SQQQ, etc. As a retail investor with limited funds to hedge against market risks, for instance, I often buy SQQQ to protect my tech stock position without holding up a large proportion of my liquidity, which has
I understand that youd like to restrict my ability to invest in certain investment products, namely leveraged mutual funds. I invest in these risky products only with money that I could afford to lose. I invest more than enough in broadly diversified, low cost index funds to cover a comfortable retirement. The money I use to invest in atypically risky ways is above and beyond what I need to meet
If regulators want to prevent people from gambling, then restrict the worst first. start be preventing online sports betting. then prevent sports betting at casinos. Then prevent slot machines at casinos.
and if the wish to help small investors, make Robinhood and others disclose how much they are paid for "pay for order flow"
And if they wish to help all investors, make
No one needs this to be regulated.. some people would prefer not to use inverse funds rather than options.
Your job is not to protect us from these vehicles. I use inverse etfs and have for the last 15 years. They are a productive tool.
It is a persons own responsibility to know your own risks and not necessary to have a big brother. If a person is willing to take the risk of investing they
Retail investors are already at a distinct dis advantage as far as technology and ability to manipulate like the large investors, short sales should be reported daily and the fines for manipulation should be more than a slap on the wrist where the large investors weigh fines versus profit and laugh as they take the fine Retail investors need a closer fair field of play or you will see the stock
I am an adult who should not be treated as a child. I should have the sole right to decide what investments I take part in and not regulators. I have started trading from scratch and educated myself very easily from the resources available to from my broker. I fully understand the risks I am taking and should have the right to take them without regulator permission or requirements. The PDT rule
You people should concentrate on regulating the markets so that corrupt politicians don't pocket all the cash. I am an investor in leverage funds, inverse index funds, and various short ETFs, some of which are risky. I am capable of deciding what to do with my own money. I am capable of assessing my risk tolerance. We the people don't need to be treated like babies. Some of my favorites
