I do not think that the use of leveraged and inverse funds need to be regulated. Any investor who would choose these types of funds has a specific purpose in mind, either of limiting risk without having to sell off positions, or of potentially increasing dividends--for example, in retirement. These investments are not that difficult to understand and can play an important part in a moderately
In today's world we, the public, need alternative ways to invest. we do not need government interference to tell us what is good and bad for us. look at what government did with the virus, screwed up the world. If you want to control something do not let our legislative body have free access to information and then allow them to act on the information. what is good for thee is good for me.
1.) Limiting investment opportunities to those with high net worth is inherently un-American and is borderline predatory on those who would be excluded from making these investment plays.
2.) Leveraged and inverse funds are crucial to my short and long term investment strategies. Information and notices are provided with these, and should continue to be. Expanding information requirements is a
Greetings,
I am writing to inform you that I oppose any restriction on leveraged investing aside from warnings that they are not to be held long term.

I am against any more restrictions to my ability to trade leveraged securities. I have been fully informed of the risks involved by my broker Fidelity in these products and had to sign and submit a document stating so to Fidelity.

When a firm wants to hire a registered representative, it
I for one am in favor of the enhanced reporting requires. An efficient market can only exist when accurate information is available to make informed decisions. As there is ample evidence of past and present naked shorting despite restrictions against it, requiring proper disclosures of large short positions, along with sufficient penalties to ensure accurate reporting is critical to identify the
As a relative newcomer to investing short interest seems to be a very complex subject to understand the situation regarding a company's share price and its analysis. Simple, accurate and timely information would help make a more informed decision on where to invest hard earned money. As such I feel information reported should be equally simple. Number of short positions opened, number of
We the people, the average retail investor, have been shunned away from valid information that is essential to our growth within the market. We deserve TRANSPERANCEY AND EQUALITY, why doesnt the average retail investor recieve the same information the same day as these hedge fund coporations. ITS ABSOLUTE UNFAIR to us, and gives the little guys less of advantage to grow. WE DESERVE CHANGE!
