Inverse Leveraged ETFs are a good way to hedge fixed income investments. I invested in the TBT leveraged ETF to offset losses in my bond investments due to interest rate hikes. Why should I lose my right to invest in a product that protects the value of my investments simply because some investors are too stupid to understand the product they are buying.
To Whom it May Concern,
Do not remove or hamper my ability to utilize any means of investing that I deem to be to my best interest. Regulating individuals simply strengthens large investors at the expense of small investors. Leveraged funds can be used to hedge in times of financial uncertainty. There are already adequate disclaimers about the risks involved with leveraged funds available.
I'm opposed to the Nanny State and attempts to stop me from investing how I like. Leveraged and inverse funds are an interesting component to a diverse portfolio. Removing these would only handicap individual investors, which is not fair. They can be used along side unleveraged standard ETF's to enhance performance or hedge during time of high volatility. They are excellent
I oppose limitations to block or restrict my investing activities. All stocks have risk and if measures are sought to restrict a certain commodity then i say stop the whole global market trading as well. This is a gross overreach of FINRA to assume this is in the best interest of the investor. Tsla, amzn, nflz, fb, etc are significantly riskier than a leveraed etf based on the broad market.
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
I understand cryptocurrency funds are new and should be regulated for an even playing field to all investors. If interested, we can find that information of crypto investment on our own. We should not be tested for a specialized investment knowledge test. Almost all other investments are available to whomever wants to invest their money without a test
It seems to me that we should spend more time educating our country how to invest in general. The majority of the US doesnt understand investing and doesnt save enough for retirement. I would urge the SEC to focus their focus educating and guiding them than creating more hoops for those of us that do we understand how interesting works. Please..
While it is imperative for FINRA to protect all investor's interests from their actions and inactions, these proposed regulations would create arbitrarily onerous barriers to financial instruments for everyday retail investors. These would only benefit high net worth individuals and investment firms--especially hedge funds, those of whom already impose their market dominance upon everyday
Request more transparency in the market. Elimination of the T+2. Why can someone short/possibly naked short a position more than the entire float? There should be some regulation. Why is Citadel allowed to be a market maker, hedge fund, and a technology company? There are companies that have been disbanded for less. Trust needs to be instilled in the market and that can be done by you. Very
FINRA has delayed the implementation of the bandwidth increase rate for the Trade Data Dissemination Service 2.1 (TDDS 2.1) vendor feed. The bandwidth is scheduled to increase from 2,500 kilobits per second (Kbps) to 3,000 kilobits per second (Kbps).
The original date for this implementation was July 24, 2023. FINRA has also cancelled the June 10, 2023 User Acceptance Test. FINRA will issue new
Hedge funds have way more tools at their disposal than retail investors. They use these extra tools to manipulate the market and hide all the shady activity they do. THEY NEED TO GO TO JAIL FOR ROBBING AMERICAN PEOPLE. They are going to cause another market crash, short [REDACTED] out of everything, and make billions of dollars while Americans are suffering. Burn them down.
