I STRONGLY oppose any restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. It is an extremely important element to any investor, and we should be able to invest in the way we chose, fully understanding the risks. Nobody should be excluded from investment opportunities available in the stock market and broader investment world.

I oppose any restrictions on my right to invest in leveraged or inverse funds. I am an adult and I demand to be treated accordingly.

stop this madness

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for 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. I am more than capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed by you on me.

These proposed regs are ill advised as they improperly infringe on an investors right to invest as he/she decides. I am perfectly capable of learning about leveraged and inverse investments and deciding for myself if they are an appropriate tool for our family's use.

We currently use both type of investments and have done so successfully for years. Perhaps you should look into what accessories computer owners should be allowed to buy and under what circumstances. lol

I am an adult and can make decisions what to invest in on my own without having to go through any process or need to explain anything!

Dear FINRA,

As a retail investor, I was shocked to learn of the potential move to limit my access to financial products that have been available on public markets for years. I find the prospect of my ability to invest my money being limited simply because I am not a "high net worth" individual extremely upsetting, and I urge you to not restrict products deemed complex.

Madam/Sir: I have been investing and trading in securities for decades. The 2 and 3 times leveraged ETFs have been one of the most innovative and practical financial tools for my portfolio management. Leveraged ETFs are my main tool to hedge my portfolio volatility without liquidating my stocks and attempting to rebuy them later. No further regulation is necessary. There are countless ways to lose money in the markets. These ETFs have saved me thousands of dollars through hedging. Please leave them alone.

Things like this continue to prove that we do NOT actually live 7n a free country. Are retail investors taking too many crumbs that we need to be stifled further?

I as the investor I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privilege few.
