Our Skilled ETF Fund Investor Loss Attorneys Continue to Investigate Brokers Over Alerian MLP And Others

晨星将15个资金列为“财富驱逐舰”

Shepherd Smith Edwards & Kantas, LLP Investor Loss Attorneys (investorlawyers.com) remains hard at work investigating the brokerage firms that may have unsuitably sold investments inAlerian MLP ETF(AMPL)to investors leading to significant losses in their portfolios. Shepherd Smith Edwards & Kantas Investor Loss Attorneys has already represented a number of investors who lost substantial savings in AMPL and similar risky/poor-performing funds.

AMLP is an oil and gas master limited partnership that was recently included in a list of what Morningstar portfolio strategist Amy Arnott called the 15 “wealth destroyer” funds that caused the most shareholder losses during the 10-year period concluding at the end of 2021. Nearly all of these areexchange-traded funds:

• Alerian MLP ETF
• ProShares Ultra VIX Short-Term Futures (UVXY)
• ProShares UltraPro Short QQQ (SQQQ)
• PIMCO商品真实RET Strat A（Pcrax）
• ProShares UltraShort S&P500 (SOS)
• iShares MSCI Brazil ETF (EWZ)
• ProShares Short S&P500 (SH)
• ProShares UltraPro Short S & P500 (SPXU)
• VelocityShares Daily 2x VIX ST ETN (TVIXF)
• Krane Shares CSI China Internet ETF (KWEB)
• PIMCO Stocksplus Short A（PSSAX）
• Direxion Daily Small Cap Bear 3x ETF (TZA)
• 速度共享3倍长的天然气ETN（ugazf）
• ProShares UltraShort 20+ Year Treasury (TBT
• Direxion每日标准普尔500熊3x ETF（SPXS）

阿诺特（Arnott）指出，这些资金中的大多数“在专业和动荡的类别上都很重”。此外，一些资金是“杠杆化”资金 - 寻求在指数上获得多个回报 - 或“反向”资金 - 寻求从基础指数损失价值中获利。对于大多数散户投资者来说，这些专业和波动的资金太冒险了，这就是为什么经纪人和财务顾问仅营销并将其出售给适合自己的客户并符合其投资目标和风险承受能力水平的客户的原因。

Unfortunately, the unsuitable recommendation of complex ETFs to investors is an all too common occurrence and may be grounds for a Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA）针对经纪人，财务顾问或金融公司的诉讼，如果造成严重的投资组合损失。仅在2020年11月，美国证券交易委员会（SEC）就向五家经纪公司bob200体育收取了据称不合适的复杂ETF销售额的五家经纪公司。不久之后，监管机构对这种声称的经纪人过失惯例发起了调查。过度调整客户的资金，未能监督交易所交易的基金销售以及对这些投资的虚假陈述和遗漏，这可能是追求损失的其他原因，如果有重大的投资者损失。

What Should You Do If You Suffered Serious ETF Losses?

复杂的ETF可能容易受到市场波动的影响。例如，杠杆ETF（例如Proshares Ultrapro Short QQQ）承担巨大风险，以产生巨大的回报。这些是没有经验的投资者的复杂资金。根据基金，此类损失也可能带来重大税收影响。

In addition, often brokers and financial advisors will earn commissions for selling ETFs, which can, unfortunately, compel some of them to try to convince investors that would be better off with more conservative investments to purchase these highly complex and risky securities.

Over the years, retail customers, retirees, as well as high-net-worth investors, and institutional investors have sustained serious ETF investment losses in exchange-traded products. While not all investment losses warrant grounds for pursuing damages against your financial advisor, if stockbroker fraud or carelessness was a factor, filing a brokerage firm arbitration claim is one way to try and obtain financial recovery. Although the arbitration forum is less time-consuming than going to court, arguing your exchange-traded fund loss claim before a panel of arbitrators is not something you want to do without seasoned securities litigators fighting for you.
