I think I should have the right to select my investment in public securities. They should be available to everyone,not just the elite. Im quite capable of understanding the risks involved and use these instruments in my investment strategies. In fact Ive made a nice profit using leveraged and inverse funds and ETFs. They have also allowed me to hedge my investments and saved me money. They are
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
I do not want to sound uneducated or stupid, but I think that there a lot of shady dealings going on in the stock market and I'm afraid that this will effect my portfolio. Please make all short positions be reported. Do we need dark pools? yes! but I wanna see that information too. We all want a free and fair market. I'm not here to be a financial patsy, for crying out loud gas is like
Help us get to T+1 and then to T+0. Help us get rid of payment for order flow. These two things alone will help the naked short crisis that we're witnessing across the market and put more trust in us. Fines should be astronomical on those caught red handed instead of the slaps on the wrists that we know that finra has done in the past. I'm tired of people keep thinking that retail
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
