Because it makes sense for some institutional investors, who have a lot more capital at their disposal and a much different risk profile than most individual investors. They also have a host of investment experts monitoring their investments and know when and how to react to changes in the market.

That said, even they can and do get burned badly.

Trying to do this on your own is really taking your life into your own hands. BYU71 can correct me if I'm completely smoking pot here or not.
