I dont understand the need for this regulation.

I understand the risk of EVERY investment I make, whether it be real estate, art, stocks, ETFs, etc. Furthermore, I understand leveraged risk, and I gladly risk what I can afford to lose. I dont know why FINRA feels the need to impose restrictions on such public securities. Baffles me.

Furthermore, leveraged and inverse funds are vital to my trading/investing strategy. They allow me to hedge when needed, and I find more comfort in a fund versus a specific stock at times.

Dear FINRA regulators,
I want to make it clear that I am against you deciding what I can invest in and what I cannot. I understand you are considering stopping me from investing in leveraged funds. I understand some people may not understand how these funds work, but I know both the risk and opportunity, and those risks are made clear by the fund owners and by Fidelity through whom I invest in them. Please drop this unnecessary legislation.

We would like levered ETFs to remain for retail investors. We understand the risks and can hedge these with cash, government credit, etc. These ETFs enable us opportunities for equitable wealth generation that makes Americans and America stronger. Please keep current ETF line up. Thank you

I fully support regulations. They reduce risk. They produce investors. Those who oppose are motivated by greed.

Investors need all investment options available to them and let them decide.

I've been investing for the last 21 years (since I was 19 years old). I am now 40 years old with two kids, seven and four.

I am capable of making my own investment decisions.

Leveraged and inverse funds help me execute on strategies that I have developed over my career as an investor. They are liquid, they are convenient, and they are safe with people who know how to use them.

Restricting or banning leveraged and inverse funds would be like banning kitchen knives because they are not safe.

I feel this is a radical proposal that is an over reach of power by our federal government dictating what instruments I can invest in. If FINRA thinks that hardworking Americans are too stupid to invest in these instruments and only the privileged should then it shows the disparity in fairness between the have and have nots.

No es necesario que debamos pasar por una prueba para poder invertir

Hi I truly believe as an investor that we should be able to decide how we can invest our hard earned money, and not by regulators out there, every investor is aware of the risks that they take, and it should be totally up to them to decide how to invest their money freely and how big of a risk they want to take without any objections from government regulators, thanks

This is [REDACTED]! We have the right to invest in any ETF. This is clearly a case of lobbying on the part of large mutual funds that are upset because they aren't making the money they used too. I'll be watching to see how this vote goes!
