I oppose restrictions on leveraged ETF products and the likes of them.

Individual investors should have the choice of any investment products. This is NOT only for rich or bigger group that they can take advantage.

Hey [REDACTED], I know your plan, regulate this so the market prices crash, let institutions but and then sell for sky high prices. This way they can book profits and you [REDACTED] can get taxes by 4/15 next year to pay for all the expenses incurred [REDACTED] in the WH. The American public is much smarter than what they used to be. [REDACTED] first go and implement this [REDACTED] in the WH [REDACTED], then we talk about this to private investors. I hope you get this message straight up [REDACTED].

As a former Registered Representative with PaineWebber and traded successfully Inverse Commodity and Equity ETN's, one as ticker tape reader and using regression programs for trend analysis, I appreciate the opportunity within my IRA to protect the account value of cash long and short. The issue of Future contracts, Currency Swaps, and Repurchase Agreements are internal to the ETNs, themselves, and really unimportant to the simple fact if the tape moves 1% to the S&P I earn 2% or 3%.

No further restrictions on my account of pro shares is necessary gentlemen .

Leveraged funds have helped me (a middle class American) access investment tools typically reserved for the ultra-wealthy. And my money is limited, so I dont place it in these funds without going through my own due diligence. Its absolutely a disgrace to limit my choice of these funds.

Please do not restrict investments in leveraged ETFs

Investing should be up to the investor,not the government!

This is terrible. More regulation? Really? These investment strategies allow growth and individuals to compete and obtain long term wealth and gains. Removing the ability to use these is against capitalism and free market for Main Street investors. It stops valid hedging and leveraging long term strategies. Stop the madness! Vote out the bureaucrats! Do not pass this highly unprecedented and restrictive regulation! This is flat wrong!

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.
