Please do not make it difficult or prevent me from investing in public securities, like leveraged or inverse funds. I am capable of understanding these funds and the associated risks on my own and do not want more regulations. Please review all existing regulations for opportunities to eliminate regulations that do not serve the public interest and contribute to waste in business, government and people lives.

My family is in an awkward position. With me as the main breadwinner, I need an income with a work from home job. I have studied stock trading for years and require access to both leveraged and inverse ETF's. Mostly, I use them for hedging my investments and this is crucial in any market condition.

I am a retired citizen and an active private investor. I never had a job that provided me with a pension. I taught myself how to invest through trial and error. One of the great developments in investment products at the end of 1997 was that of ProFunds' making available inverse funds and leveraged funds. Both of these categories of mutual funds provided me more flexibility in how I could manage and grow my retirement accounts. The availability of these investment products helped me provide for me and my family in maintaining my status as a middle class tax-paying private citizen.

Leveraged ETF products are well diversified instruments that offer access to leverage at a low cost with no margin account (hence no risk of liquidation) to retail investor.

These products must remain legal.

Please don't do that

Inverse ETFs and leveraged ETFs are a way for retail investors like myself to hedge against the current inflationary and recession trends in the market. Taking away these important tools will expose retail to more risk, not less.

I srongly oppose being constrained to my option to trade. They should not have been allowerd at inception. But they are here and I am very involved with them.

I have every right to where i invest my hard earned wherever i choose , i don't like restrictions on what i can put money into . This is basically rich getting richer tactics .

It is unlawful to restrict the general public from investing in leveraged or inverse funds. These funds, like most equities, carry risk of losing all principal and this is something all investors and traders are aware of with a simple acknowledgement on a disclosure. We should not have to demonstrate additional minimum qualifications to invest in these vehicles nor should they be restricted to institutional investors. I have been using these funds for nearly a decade and should have the right to continue that without meeting new requirements.

Do NOT limit my investment vehicles or decisions. My money. My choice. Simple.
