Leveraged and inverse ETFs continue to draw criticism, though their latest cautioner has not decided to stop selling them altogether. In the Tuesday Fund Track column, the Wall Street Journal's Daisy Maxey points to a warning about leveraged and inverse mutual funds on Fidelity's website.

A Fidelity spokeswoman previously told the WSJ that the firm is "aware of recent regulatory and industry discussion about these products" and they are "carefully following that discussion."
