Public investments should be the right of the person doing the investing. Why do politicians or others think they are better qualified to decide what one does with their funds to invest? If this decision is passed, it must include our elected representatives as well as John Q. Public. It is a disgrace our law makers are allowed to exclude themselves to the regulations of laws they pass for the rest of us. I am speakiing of such laws as the Health Insurance fiasco, Social Security, and other requirements the general public are required to follow.

I oppose the restrictions to my right to invest.It poses a severe threat towards market fairness. It's like locking people in home because of Flu. Retail traders or investors should be able to freely choose whatever products that fit their trading strategies. Finance is NOT only for the rich or the privileged. We know what leveraged funds are. Also, the liquidity will be severely affected if passed.

I would like to take a moment to let you know that It should be up to me as an individual to make my own decisions to use investment vehicles I see fit for my investment strategies.

Investors should be able to determine if they want to use leveraged and or inverse funds, or any other type fund for that matter. The information is available to make an educated decision on my own, I do not need regulators to make this decision on my behalf.
There are risks with any investment, that is why there are returns to be had. Investors need to exercise good judgement. Do not remove my ability to decide for myself.

I have invested in leveraged funds for many years and thanks to them I have a lot more money than I would have otherwise. I am an experienced investor, I know and accept the risks and volatility of these investments. This is America, where we have the freedom to choose what we believe is best for ourselves. Let us continue to do so!

I am a seasoned investor who invests in leveraged funds I am not accredited but understand the risks involved. By removing the ability to trade leveraged etfs and funds would be doing myself and many others an injustice thank you

If you take away my ability to buy inverse etf's I will no longer be able to hedge my portfolio as those who I would sell my position t

I use inverse funds to reduce my risk of loss when the markets are retracting. It is very important to me and my family that these purcahses not be restricted by any regulations that restrict my use of them.

I, not regulators, 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 privileged.

Leveraged portfolios also allow me to reach the same exposure, but still hold much more liquid cash.

it's my freedom to invest in whatever I think is good.
