I as an American citizen should have the right to invest in anything that I wish. I've allredy started investing in regulation A+ stocks because of the reforms that were made.its not right to take this opportunity from regular and poor people because we are regular and poor. such regulations would only serve to keep us regular and poor. this isn't right and must be stopped. thank you.

I am a long term investor. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategy. They are a small, but important vehicle for hedging against dramatic swings in the market and are crucial to balancing my portfolio. I understand and accept the risks inherent to the use of inverse funds and do not need special tests in order to invest in them. I believe the proposed restrictions infringe on my rights as an individual investor and give a dramatic advantage to institutional and extreme wealth investors.

Dear Regulator,

I first learned about leveraged ETFs in 2007, just before the great financial crisis and I have used them as part of my portfolio to achieve my investment goals ever since.

I had a position in them just before the great financial crisis, and remember well how quickly they lost value, but having grown up in a hyper-inflationary environment, I also had clear understanding of the impact of compound interest rates on the way up, which benefited me significantly as we exited the great financial crisis.
