Information about a product you invest in is incredibly important, and I think ensuring brokerages are properly informing retail investors about the risks of the product they are investing in would benefit everyone involved. However, I find the proposed regulations of forcing those holding leveraged products to sell at the end of every day and limiting capping profits/losses of a leveraged
Hello, I disagree with the rules this document is proposing. These products are cleared labeled as leverage products and the retail investor is aware of the risks and strategies involved. These are outlined in the prospectus and online which are sent to every trader. This would be a barrier to entry and unnecessary burden for retail investors who already are required to acknowledge the risks when
Please DO Not regulate us. We want less regulation not more. If you treat us like uneducated children. We will act like uneducated children. Do I get a participation trophy for investing in the stock market. Are you going to tell me when to sell and buy also. In all seriousness this is a very bad idea and can be a slippery slope.
Leveraged ETFs and options can, in many cases, reduce an investors risk when used as a part of a larger portfolio. To exclude their use by everyday investors is to put many of them in an even more at risk position. Simply buying and holding individual stocks can be much more risky, and the equities market would cease to exist if that weren't allowed.
Hello whoever is reading this, hope your day is going well. I am a young investor with a few years experience actively trading and learning about financial products. Even though you're looking at making changes to how a wide range of complex derivate products are regulated, but I would like to talk specifically on leveraged products as they are what I am most familiar with. I'll refer
As a retail investor I do not agree with this. I request that you do not make any changes to the trading of these products. Lindsay Ash
More regulation is NOT the answer. DIY retail investors should have the same level of access to products as professionals; they’ve CHOSEN to DIY because they believe they have sufficient skill and knowledge. People don’t need to be “protected” from themselves. Give everyone EQUAL access to products instead of walling off “complex” products to institutions and elites.
You guys should not classify Retail Investors as a naïve person. Nowadays, Retail Investors have access to information to self-educate themselves on risks of trading leverage products (eg: Google Search, Reddit, Boggle heads and list goes on). I personally hold TQQQ for more than 2 years and will continue to do so as it continues to provide outsized return relative to underlying index. The
Theses changes are far too invasive and everything should just be kept as is.
I absolutely do not support the one day hold rule for leveraged complex products. There are viable leveraged strategies that are far more simple and efficient for retail investors that require holding these products for much longer
