To whom this may concern, Please do not restrict the access of the average investor into market funds. Some of those under consideration are incredibly useful to new investors who choose to risk smaller amounts during a learning phase of the market. These proposed changes will significantly increase the barrier of entry to the average American in achieving their financial goals. Americans should always have the right to participate in the market, regardless of financial status.

I oppose restrictions to my rights to invest

Stay [REDACTED] out of my pockets when the regulators are the biggest dishonest bunch [REDACTED]. If you are not regulated, why should I be?

This is ridiculous. Rather than take away the few tools (like inverse ETFs) that investors use to help protect themselves from unfair markets, perhaps it would be better to focus on fining those manipulating the markets for their own selfish gains. The way these markets are run, rigged against the little guy, is a disgrace.

To whom it may concern:

I officially oppose this regulation. We should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.
This is an overstep that weeds out the little guy and seeks to advantage a selective few.

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 wealthy and privileged.

I shouldn't have to go through any special process in order to invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.

Leveraged and inverse funds, especially inverse funds, are crucial to my investment strategy, as I use them as a hedge to protect my other investments.

Dear Sirs; This country was founded on liberty. Please do not pass these draconian regulations. Respectfully, J. F. Crane

Please do not take away or make it more difficult for people to use leveraged and inverse funds. I can understand why it may be good to provide people that have never used them with some education first. But, for people like myself that have years of experience using them they should be allowed to continue.

I strongly disagree with the addition of any new oversight related to leveraged and particularly inverse etf's. I use them to hedge/protect my family's assets particularly in periods of heightened volatility, which is becoming increasingly frequent as the machines/algorithms have taken over trading (an area that regulators don't appear to be overly concerned with). Regulators should not assume that they know what's better for investors than the investors themselves when it comes to limiting their investment options or trading frequency.
