The stock market will undergo a difficult period in the coming years. At times, it will be necessary for investors to buy protection to hedge against market declines. Regulations that prevent retail traders from hedging their investments through inverse funds will ensure that large institutional investors profit and protect their investments during market selloffs while retail investors will be decimated. This is grossly unfair and another example of government policies that are designed to transfer wealth from the middle class to the elites.
