Financial Industry Regulatory Authority, Inc. (“FINRA”) is filing with the Securities and Exchange Commission (“SEC” or “Commission”) a proposed rule change to amend FINRA Rule 6120 (Trading Halts) to conform to recent amendments to the NMS plans governing the collection, consolidation and dissemination of quotation and transaction information for NMS stocks and to make technical and clarifying
Reducing the pool of potential investors does not sound to me like a plan to make investing easier or better. These restrictions also don't seem like steps to make the markets more efficient - the proposed rule sounds like a way to make the markets way less efficient. Anyone should be able to buy - or to sell - these holdings.
We follow a very regimented investment plan that utilizes, in part, leveraged funds. It is providing an income stream for us now in our retirement.
We were vetted by our investment company (Fidelity Investments) in order to trade freely with leveraged funds. There should be no other restrictions placed on an individual's right to choose their method of investment.
Please, do not restrict me from investing in certain investments that you think I am not smart enough to understand. These securities are a part of my retirement plan and will set me back 10-20 years if I can not invest in them. You are not my financial advisors, you do not know what is good for my financial health.
Hello. I beleive we can make our own decisions to our investments, this includes leveraged funds. I use them for leverage and hedging, both important elements for a good financial plan. Law markers should look at oher things like dishonesty amoungst the people that make the markets.
I dont think they should be allowed to partisipate in the makrkets.
I oppose this planned restriction on my right to invest in public investments.
The "little guy" should not be prohibited from investing in leveraged and inverse funds - we are just as capable as wall street of doing research and looking out for ourselves.
implementing this new restriction would just be another case of stacking the deck in favor of wall street professionals.
I employ a mix of stocks, and both leveraged and non-leveraged ETFs to achieve investment goals for over 10 years. ETFs provide a facile means to establish both long and short positions when markets reach extreme levels. Non availability of inverse and leveraged ETFs would make establishing planned portfolio positions difficult, if not impossible.
My family's long-term investment plan includes leveraged ETFs. Our financial decisions have been made under the assumption leveraged ETFs would be available in the future. The SEC has already approved these funds. We don't need FINRA to hold our hands. Please don't assume you're smarter than we are.
I understand the risks associated with investing after more than forty years of managing my own investments. Having inverse and leveraged options is an important element of my investment strategy, especially after 1987, 2001, 2007, and 2020. Is there more to this diabolical plan to restrict my options? Please bear in mind you are elected officials.
