I utilize leveraged and inverse funds to increase returns and understand the risks involved. I do not think trading them should be subject to increased regulation.

Inverse funds have proven to be very a beneficial hedge to many portfolio strategies. More than ever, right now, they are doing just what they were designed for. I don't need a test to understand how they work. Thank you.

we should have the right and ability to purchaser and invest in these leverged and inverse funds. we people have capacity to understand the funds and risks. please do not take these measures imposed on me. thx.

I would like to keep my right to invest in inverse funds. I think risk invloved is same as normal stock purcahse.

Stay out of our money!

I feel this should not be stopped as this gives option to investors who do not trade in options. So i dont think you should take that option away.

I'm concerned about having restrictions to my investment in leveraged or inverse funds as part of my investment strategies, they help enhance returns and I can use them as a hedge for investments. I don't feel that I should go through any special process to be able to choose which investment to choose . Every investment has it's own risks and benefits.

I don't need a US financial agency telling me how to invest my money.

PLEASE do not take away ordinary retail investors' right to trade these products. There is an inherent risk in any investment. People who participate in the market should be able to assess for themselves what level of risk they want to take on. If they don't want the risk, there are plenty of other vehicles to trade. Most importantly, these products are the only way ordinary investors can hedge their portfolios on the downside.

I am a Certified Financial Planner with 30 years of experience. These producs must be allowed to be traded by the open public. Any restriction is bad for the markets and the consumer. It is up to the consumer, not the government to make these decisions. There is more than enough information available to consumer regarding any potential risks. They can asses the risk themselves.
