Dear FINRA;
Please do not add 'nanny state' type restrictions on inverse and leveraged ETF's. As an investor, I need access to a variety of investment options, including long and short leveraged ETF's.
The introduction of onerous restrictions on investing in these types of funds would not serve the public interest.
It is important for retail investors to have trading options that do not require trading options. That is a bit of a play on words, but I hope you get the drift. I don't want to trade options but I do want to be able to invest in ETFs that short the market. It is an essential part of my investment portfolio.
I don't believe FINRA even has the capabilities to create a fair and free market as what we have is the literal opposite. If you do, no one has seen it. Synthetic shares are created by the millions with no regulation or repercussion. Shares are traded in dark pools by market makers, then shorted in lit pools to crippled and drive down the price of stocks for market makers and institutions
The stock market is in a difficult situation now because of war and inflation. After May 4th, the stock market is expected to rise in the short term. There have been many difficulties this year, but I think it will recover a lot.I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments.
Investing in Proshares is easier and less riskier than individual stocks that are easily manipulated by Wall Street algorithms. In case regulators seriously want to protect investors, then abolish shorting activity from stocks and market so this casino activity triggered by Wall Street can be stopped.
Shares should have a tracking number on them. Trading would be simplified and tracking fraud would be easy to find. Locates also need to be recorded as soon as they are put in use and or taken off the books when finished using...... IN A CENTRALIZED PLACE FOR ALL TO SEE.... As of right now. creating more float than available is a major problem. When the float of a company is held... The price
FINRA and the sec are only here to protect large investors to become richer. This rule change and the fact that the sec approved a futures but not spot etf, enabling shorts is proof of that. This is why crypto is so important. It takes the power away from these corrupt officials and gives it back to the individual.
Short selling is been used in a malicious way to hurt the retail investors and please must be stopped. Younger generations losing trust in the stock market is growing and in the long run will affect the overall and trust in our economy. Thank you!!
We need to see what is going on. The short selling in dark pools. This is not a fair market. T2 is a joke. It should be same day. Hedge funds need to show there hand. So we all can be on the same playing field.
Hello, I'd like to have a faster access to the Short Interest reporting, receiving the information after more than 2 weeks it was released it leaves the retail investor in disadvantage compared with big entities like MarketMakers, HedgeFunds and investment funds,
