I have been trading in inverse funds for many years. They are an important part of my portfolio. They can counter the downturns and bring a sense of balance to the financial markets. They reflect the TRUTH of poorly performing entities. Unfortunately, corporate buy backs and short squeezes are the real villains affecting true market valuations, not leveraged and inverse funds. It would be a travesty to target the wrong investment tools that reflect a fair market!!!

The ability to freely use stocks, permitted my life to be better
My children have benefited as well

I strongly oppose the FINRA proposal, which would limit investors ability to be able to buy leveraged and inverse funds and dozens of other popular investments.

I don't like the restrictions you want to impose on individuals that will end the ability to compete for an equal opportunity. Don't abuse the small investors by shutting them from a free competition

The government should have any say in what I want to invest in. The risks are mine to take or not take. The government should not have any say in my financial affairs.

Let me invest how I want to, leverage is a powerful strategy that I understand the risk of. I'm 19 years old I have the ability to be extremely risk tolerant yet don't have a large net worth. Don't gut my Roth IRA and my savings no matter how much risk I intend to take on. Thanks.

I object to FINRA trying to restrict the use of hedging instruments by normal Americans.

If I didnt have the continued right to use inverse ETFs, My retirement account would have been down 8% last month instead of up.

If you take away these vital tools for hedging, youll be reducing my ability to participate in the markets, and Ill be less able to retire and MORE exposed to risk in the annual volatility circus.

Dont take away my ability to protect my familys retirement fund, please.

I dont agreed with the regulations. And it should never happen. I cant believe what happening to our country. Help us all.

I oppose restrictions on my right to invest any leveraged and inverse funds, which are important to my investment strategies. I understand the risks of the leverage and inverse funds but seek enhanced returns.

The hallmark of the USA is FREEDOM. You have no right to restrict my investment options, after all it is my money and when I make a profit I pay taxes!!! You may think I am not smart enough to understand leveraged and inverse funds, I am and I am also smart enough to use a very smart broker as are most people. These funds are not hard to understand and are an important tool that should be available to everyone who wants to use them.
