I am an individual investor that holds shares of ticker TQQQ and ticker UPRO. I am fully aware of the risks of these 3x leveraged funds, particularly the risk of how 3x daily negative returns can compound during bear markets and lead to quick losses when holding these funds. I am also fully aware of what a powerful tool these ETFs are in building wealth when used correctly as a part of a greater portfolio strategy. No restrictions should be put on trading these types of leveraged index funds just because of how powerful they are.

I am retired and have been managing my own portfolio for many years. Because of the market volatility I use leveraged funds (specifically SPXU, UVXY, and SQQQ) as a hedging strategy for my entire portfolio. I do not understand why the government should regulate what public investments people should be purchasing.

Save my Constitutional rights.

Please no more regulations. Let me choose what I want. Thank you.

I have no use for regulations that limit my investment choices. Free will and freedom to choose is essential to my American way of life. Authorities who make believe that they know more about me than I know about myself have exceeded the limits of government of the people, by the people, for the people. Authoritarians war against my freedom of choice and in no way represent my own best interests.

The regulatory can hurt me strongly because of my portfolios.

I oppose the restriction of inverse and shorting stocks
Its my money my choice and I can choose To trade how I like, I understand the risks and are happy with them

Please maintain my status to choose to invest in proshares accounts. I have invested in these types of agressive funds with success and understand the risk involved and feel I should be able to assess my own risk without interference from 'oversight protection'. Please remove yourselves from my investment decisions.

The government cannot even manage their own money, they definitely should not be telling me how to manage mine. Only I know what kind of risks I am willing to take and how much I can afford to invest in risky investments.
I have been investing for over 30 years, I do not want or need regulators putting me through a special process to allow me to manage MY money in any way I see fit! It is MY money.
If you are so set on regulating something, why not focus on people that are living pay check to pay check, yet spend their entire check in the casino, or on lottery tickets!

There is no reason why we shouldn't be able to trade leveraged and inverse funds. That does not represent freedom
