There shouldn't be a two day delay in short sale returns and coverage. All the big players on Wall Street get it the day of and yet everyone else has to wait 2 days. How about making the rules fair for everyone and everyone being able to see it the same day. Also I'm sick of algorithmic trading back and forth back and forth back and forth. When you going to outlaw something like that
Hello, I would like to see more transparency and effective regulation (and enforcement) on Short Sale Reporting. As a retail investor, my confidence in our American stock market is very low and leaves me feeling cheated due to these "behind the scenes" loop holes that large corporations and institutions can utilize to benefit themselves through bending the rules through clever exploits
Every share should be tracked with a unique identifier. Every share with a unique identifier should only be allowed to lent out once. Every order should be delivered T+2 or fails mean 10x cost penalty. Every short position should be updated with FINRA daily. All retail but and sell orders should be done in a "lit" market - not retail order should be allowed to be packaged up with other
I have been investing in TQQQ for 5 years now. I use a quarterly rebalancing method that has benefitted from TQQQ's high degree of volatility. When it is high, I sell off a portion. When it is low, I buy more shares with the money set aside in bond funds for this purpose. I understand the risks associated with this product and trade accordingly. I recognize the possibility of losing
Give your standard disclosures. Bring back the short sale rule! Keep the auto close for severe drops on the indexes. Go after the cook the book companies, and the insider trading crooks but do not deny the independent traders,investors or institutional financial firms the ability to hedge or out gain the standard index. The great thing about the United States is that one can take risk to possibly
I have been investing in these types of securities for a very long time especially if closed end funds are included in the list, it has been well over 20 years and I already understand the risks and have ridden through the crash of 1987, the tech bubble, crash of 2008-2009, etc.
I think these types of investments (leveraged funds, etc.) should not be any more regulated than they currently are
I Request FINRA to Please allow everyone to access these products. Many people use these products sensibly by allocating a small portion of their net-worths. It is not fair to allow only certain individuals to access these products, while restricting everyone else. One could buy a stock which could go to zero, is that not an unsafe / complex investment? How do you define complexity? Buying AAPL
Leveraged and inverse funds are a hedging tool when I think put option premiums are expensive and/or I am unable to directly short a stock or ETF in my retirement accounts. I also use them to make speculative directional bets where I deem appropriate. Position size is always key in volatile products ,that is just common sense from the offset, or quickly learned by actual trading experience...
Comments: Dear FINRA, I fully understand the composition and risks associated with complex leveraged funds. They are short term in nature and utilize complex derivatives, mostly swaps which may or may not be regulated by public markets. They are an excellent way of maximizing short-term returns when identifying a correct short-term trend in a particular market sector. After voicing concern many
Dear FINRA, Hope the day finds you well. For 15 Years we have been restricted to Index Funds, Commodities, Currencies and Real Estate (Spouse is MD at Investment Banking Firm). The new restrictions Listed under Rule #S7-24-15 are worrisome as we will have even more limitations on where to invest our monies??? We are a household of MBA's, work hard and clearly understand that any purchase or
