My main focus is on both leveraged and non-levered index ETF's for the DOW, Nasdaq and S&P, both long and inverse. I feel more comfortable investing in the market as a whole as opposed to individual stocks. They also allow me to protect my IRA on downturns as I am not allowed to short individual stocks and would find that far riskier. Please reconsider your proposed changes. Thank You.

Risk and reward go together in Free Enterprise. The responsibility to understand risk and then willingness to engage are an individual's prerogative. Those of us who are educated, responsible, and recognize the downside should be allowed to invest in leveraged funds. I am somewhat offended that people who don't understand the risk "cry foul" when they don't get the result they expected, expecting someone to save them from their poor financial management.

It's our money you don't have right to what to do or take our money

Mind yall buissness. You steal enough money every day

Dear Finra
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
We have went through the risky period including 2008-2009 Financial Crisis, March 2020 Covid panic with the help of leveraged/inverse funds which assit us to control the risk. The freedom of investment is part of democracy. If there is not much choice of investment, we wont invest in this market. Please do not restrict our right of investment.
Thank you for your consideration!

Me not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. This is and should remain our option and nobody else's. We the People of this Great Country Demand you not toy with our Rights

I utilize leveraged and inverse funds in my investment portfolio and I have never had problems with such funds. Many other people also benefit from it.

I was able to fund my son's college education by utilizing leverage funds.

I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments such as leveraged and inverse funds.

I am an individual investor. I believe that I 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, not just the privileged.

I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. Certainly I understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Small investors need access to the economy, investing helps fund growth, investing helps beat inflation. Investing is for everyone.

Thé government has no right to tell hard working Americans how they can invest their money. It did not work for it. These rules would block access for the average person to invest in companies that would bring them revenue. A risk is a risk. Everyday you walk across the street you take a risk. Its the for some anonymous government official to decide where and how people invest. This is outrageous. You are trying to condemn the little people to a life of poverty and slavery to your tax system.
