I strongly oppose the proposed regualtion to limit the use of leveraged securities. I will make my own decisions on what investments for my portfolio and take full responsibility for it. I dont need government to make the decision for me.

Thank you very much.

Hello: I am deeply unhappy that regulators are considering limiting access to alternative investments. It is incredibly important for investors to have access to a wide variety of investment options. It is up to investors to understand the risk and rewards of any investment vehicles. I don't appreciate "Big Brother" to tell us what we can and can't invest in.

Used inverse ETF SDS for 10 years & plan to leave alone until market crashes & regain losses! My main investment! Obviously I oppose ANY limitation on my investment at this point since holding for the long term to regain $$$$s !!!!!

Leveraged and inverse funds have been a life-changing tool in my investment portfolio. Having access to leveraged and inverse funds has allowed me to increase gains during market rallies, as well as hedge my portfolio against multiple market corrections. I firmly believe investors such as myself should continue to have access to these valuable tools, without obstacles.

Please do NOT make it more difficult to use etf's that use inverse or double or triple time a basic index. If I am using them, I have read the material associated with it. More regulations do not help me invest. It makes it more cumbersome. Regards, T Davis MD

As an investor, I should have the right to choose my investments, rather than have several familiar funds unavailable because I don't fit a special demographic. That is discrimination. When I invest my money, I take on the risk that comes with that. I do not need someone else to tell me I can't invest in specific funds under the veil of "looking out for me." Keep these funds available for everyone.

Leveraged and Inverse fund are very important tools. They are not hard to understand. More important, they are necessary tools that enable me to maintain financial security at a cost I deem to be very reasonable. I oppose any restrictions on my right to invest. Full Disclosure; YES. Restrictions; NO. They are unnecessary and seem to be designed to force me to hire a professional to invest, which means an automatic reduction in my net return.

Why cut your own throats? At a time when the market is in need of support the most,you propose restrictions? It does infringe on Americans' choice to simply select their own industry.If these "complex" undertakings are incomprehensible to some, they will either learn---or be taken under. Those who work hardest under the free enterprise system will truly earn their compensation and that is a right that will surely have it's consequences, if taken away.

Retail investors deserve to make their own financial decisions and and the opportunity to profit from their investments. Eliminating leveraged and inverse ETFs would remove financial tools from ordinary Americans while allowing large corporations and investors to continue to profit. It's unfair to normal people.

I don't agree with the upcoming decisions regarding leveraged ETFs. I know the risk and am willing to take that level of risk for the exposure. I should be allowed to make these investment choices without restriction.
