Please do not restrict my ability to use leverage/inverse stocks. These stocks allow me to leverage my positions without incurring debt and without direct involvement in derivatives. They allow me to take short positions without making short sales. They allow me to make trades not possible using mutual funds. They allow me to trade NDX and SPX more efficiently than possible for me using at- and
I am opposed to limits/tests/net worth qualifications on inverse or leveraged ETFs. I use them as a hedge on a portfolio of stocks to protect from market downturns and I think everyone should have that option. It should be the investors choice. Investors already can buy individual stocks and many of them are down over 50% as well so it's not like people can't lose money the
I think I should have the freedom to choose the public investments that are right for me. I believe the regulators should not put restrictions on public investments.
By investing in leveraged funds like TQQQ, I could put a little amount of money at risk and if it works out I can have an outsized gain. Again, I could put all my money on other individual stocks like Netflix, Palantir, or medical
It is not regulators' place to decide how I assess risk and where I decide to invest. A leveraged fund is not a threat to the investing population or my investment strategy. It is a part of my strategy, and one I deploy understanding the risks involved. That's my job as an investor to manage. Just like regulators can't keep me from buying a house that's a risky
The blatant manipulation against AMC and GME makes me lose complete faith in the US stock market. I am working on moving my money out of the US stock system. It's clear that our government is bought and paid for. This system with tutes lying about short positions, dark pools, secondary books by brokers, unchecked FTD's and high-frequency trading makes an unfair playing field to where
Our stock market is the most popular in the world. And thats because its of the people, for the people, and by the people. I understand the need for regulation and Id say that FINRA is doing a great job thus far. But touching investment tools that make retail investors like myself a tad bit stronger is simply an undemocratic move on part of the regulators. One who is capable of trading stocks, is
I oppose to restrictions on my right to invest. What is more difficult, having the business acumen to evaluate when to buy or sell individual stocks or the wisdom to know that if the stock market generally goes up over time, that you might make more money in a leveraged index fund like the double Nasdaq or double S&P. Are you going to tell me I can't approve of a complex
All investments carry some degree of risk. Stocks, bonds and funds can lose value. Even conservative, insured investments such as certificates of deposit issued by a bank or credit union, come with inflation risk. They may not earn enough over time to keep pace with the increasing cost of living.
Please do not restrict my rights and ability to invest in the stock market and stocks, exchange traded funds, currency funds etc. It seems that the regulators want to push out smaller investors like me. I am just an average person trying to build a portfolio only to provide funds for a decent, low to middle income retirement. Since banks pay next to to nothing in interest, what other way is there
Investing in leveraged and inverse ETF funds is just about the only way to make money in todays volatile market. I have lost 10% of my 401k investing in regular/traditional ETFs. With the way this current woke, hypocritical administration is governing the stock market is going to crash, next will be a housing market crash & a terrible recession. Yet Pelosi and company can continue
