A license to sell leveraged ETFs, and specifically inverse ETF's, is a license to steal. Period. It should be a requirement that any designed financial instrument show in the prospectus how an investor may actually make money not just the risks of loosing it. Take TVIX, a long term chart shows in 2011 the price was 2,235,849,984, today its value is $112 dollars. A loosing investment start to
It is an outrage that FINRA is considering limiting these powerful wealth building tools for non-high-net worth individuals. Leveraged Funds have provided some of the most attractive returns over the past ten years, and will almost certainly continue to provide attractive returns as long as global capital markets continue their long bull runs.

Triple and double leveraged etfs provide a simple and understandable way to hedge positions, or without personal leverage, create a larger upside position for an investor.
