I should be able to invest my money where I want. I understand the risk/reward ratio and play safe. I should not be penalized for others who cannot manage their risk and are vulnerable
It is "PUBLIC INVESTMENTS". We have the right to participate.
I understand they hold a higher risk and that is well explained before confirmation of the initial purchase, at least it is in my Fidelity account.
I strongly oppose any regulation of trading inverse and leveraged funds. Fair warnings of risk and complexity have and should be given, but legal restrictions are an unnecessary infringement on freedoms.
Comments I understand the risk of leveraged long and short funds I use them to offset market movements and trade them shot term and should not be limited to use them .
Please stop trying to interfering in free markets. It is a mistake and will just hurt people. When people trade these funds they know they are high risk and it is their money to lose not yours.
We lived in a free market society, if I or anyone else wants to risk our money on investments the government should not be able to decide who has the opportunity to do so.
I understand the risks and the benefits of leveraged ETF. I still can trade options. For years I prefer to trade these leverage ETF. I hope you dont change the rules.
Thanks,
Pallop.
I am not confused about Direxion, and ProShares levered and inverse ETFs. I use them without worrying about the risks to margin trading and educated about the products volatility.
As a long time investor, I should be able to decide for myself how much risk I want to take in my investments. It is no benefit to make things more difficult for everyone.
Last time I checked this was a free country. These restrictions are not warranted. Doing options - calls and puts carries more risk. Letting Proshares do this for investors makes sense.
