The ability to invest in leveraged securities as part of a well balanced portfolio is needed. To restrict this to retail investors is absurd. I should be able to invest in what I want to invest in as a right!
I use leveraged equities to hedge investments for protections. And it has been helpful to offset volatility in the market. I dont have millions to invest but when I look for products
I have been trading 3x leveraged and inverse ETF's for many years because it allows me to go long or short without having to open a margin account. It's no different than trading any unleveraged stock, as long as you just divide your investment dollars by 2 or 3 depending on the leverage multiple. Please don't add any restrictions. It works great the way it is, and it allows people
I oppose proposed restrictions to inverse and leveraged ETFS. The reason for my opposition is that they are useful tools for hedging and as well for magnified short term gains. If there is a particular sector, underlying commodity, or index that I want exposure to, these products help me meet my objectives and help me formulate strategies to meet the objectives i have laid out for myself. I
To whom it may concern: Regarding FINRA regulatory Notice 21-19 Many of us are concerned. The Citizens of The United States of America are demanding full transparency regarding Short Sale Reporting, as well as full accountability regarding Failure to Delivers. The World is watching and the integrity of our stock market is at stake. We demand full transparency/accountability. Thank you for your
The ability of individuals and companies to not have to report short positions is completely illogical and to me seems coincidental to the nefarious activity surrounding it. Even if no illegal activity is taking place it is a similar position to both calls and puts, that are both required to be reported. I hope FINRA takes my comments (and those of my fellow stock markets citizens) seriously, and
I use funds like FAZ, SDS, and SQQQ as portfolio insurance to mitigate the wild market gyrations we have witnessed in 2008/2009, 2020, and even right now(?). Using funds like these I can achieve strong upsides in a down market while my losses are limited to what I have invested. Instead, regulate the program selling, the short selling, the futures market where I could lose far more than my
Comments: As a Financial advisor and investor of 32+ years, I strongly believe having the ability to purchase 1x inverse ETF's is a valuable short term hedging tool. I am not a fan of the leveraged ETF's as they can create a lot of damage if used improperly. Also the tracking error over time is very problematic. With that said, knowledgeable investors should have access to
Hello, I have been investing in leveraged inverse funds for as long as they have been around. I fully understand the risks and use them only as very short term hedges. They have been a very important tool in enabling me to dampen volatility of my returns over the years, and as a result I have achieved a very respectable Sharpe ratio.
Please do not make me jump through hoops to use them.
Thanks
Stop the price manipulation on AMC and GME. Put an end to naked shorting with more required reporting regulations, and increased oversight. Hedge funds and Brokers need steeper fines and tighter restrictions that will actually make them stop doing illegal activity, instead of being slapped on the wrist and still making millions. Shut it down. Transparency is key and the retail investors feel like
Please investigate the dark pools it seems they’re not being utilized for the reasons they were initially put into place. Instead it appears to be a tool to manipulate volume and share price. FTDs need to be enforced without loopholes to wiggle through. Naked shorting has to be investigated! SSRs need to be also be strictly enforced. All in all, investors want trading to be a fair process for all
