Individuals should be able to decide how they invest their money. leveraged ETFs are not nearly as bad as investing in "meme stocks" or options trading. Regulating buying ETFs at the start of a bear market is irresponsible and likely something to make people sell their ETFs at a loss.

I am the only one who should ultimately decide where to invest my hard earned money!

The USA Free markets should not be limited in any ticker what so ever. The total purpose of the market is that it is free to be traded by any person that follows ALL the laws. This includes ETFs or any commodity. Regulating tickers would be unfair for the regular investors and giving more power to the Banks and market maker.
These are the situations that create more imbalance to the market.

Please do not take away the ability to use leveraged funds as this is a great vehicle to be a bit more aggressive without having to buy individual stocks. I should be able to assess and trade on the risk tolerance I have for myself and my family.

I strongly oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. Public investments should be available to everybody, not just the 1% and other elites. I am an adult and am capable of understanding the risks involved with investments, and should be free to place my money in investments if I so choose - there should be no special hoops or processes like passing a financial literacy test before being able to do so. Restricting access to public investments is un-American and and completely unnecessary for their function.

I oppose this action.

You are trying to take one more right of true Americans that the right to win or lose!

This is just another way for regulators to take a shot at the smaller investor. I don't need your protection. If I make a bad investment I sell it. I don't need regulators to protect me. It's my money and I will invest it how I see fit. If I lose it, I only have myself to blame. Stop try to play big brother. I learn from my mistakes. Leave us alone.

Please do not restrict my ability to buy leveraged index funds.

Regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, hence why theyre called public investments, not just the privileged. I am well aware of the risks of trading in the stock market and am more than capable of assessing the risk to reward ratio of using my own hard earned money to provide a stable future for myself and my family.
