Leveraged and inverse funds are a valuable tool for maximizing
short term gains and protecting your portfolio in volatile markets. I understand the concerns but I think it's a big overreach restrict the use of these funds by individuals.
Why would you limit my investment choices. Please keep out of limiting my ability to short the market through ProShares. You are unamerican to even consider limiting my choices/
I know what I am doing. I know and accept the downside risk. The leverage of these securities means I do not need to use expensive margin debt or enter into risky short sales. I am delighted with these products.
Finra would be better served finding a way to stop unregulated shorting of many securities in the US markets. This action against Leveraged and Inverse funds inhibits a hedging mechanism that is useful to individual investors.
Its my money. These leverage funds only thing protecting my accounts during crashes.
What, i have to increase risk and short now, or maybe worse, buying constantly expiring puts?
FINRA has taken disciplinary actions against the following firms and individuals for violations of FINRA rules; federal securities laws, rules and regulations; and the rules of the Municipal Securities Rulemaking Board (MSRB).
Stop. This is none of your business and you don't know what you're doing. An efficient market needs investors on both sides of a trade....buyers and sellers, long and short, who are responsible for their trades. Not you.
Stop chipping away on our rights! Everyone has the right to invest and it must stay that way! The efforts of turning this country from a democracy into an oligarchy are are very see through and nothing short of illegal.
Leveraged and inverse funds are an important part of my investment strategy. I'm reluctant to be a short seller given the risk, however, with an inverse fund, I can still grow my portfolio in an overall downtrend.
