Comments:its my choice to trade any and all securities including leveraged and contra etfs. The information on its risks is widely available and I reviewed it many times. Its my responsibility. I and we do the Due Diligence as long as full disclosure is provided.
Thank you,

It is easy to understand that, in the long run, markets go up and that, therefore, an inverse fund that shorts an index is not a profitable long-term investment.
But it is also obvious it can be used to hedge long investments and limit the impact of a catastrophic downturn. And since it is related to an index, it is much less volatile and risky than many individual stocks.
Therefore, I don't see any reason to regulate its use more that that of any regular stock.
I do not have any comment to make on leveraged funds.
I should have the right to invest in any legal investment as long as I know the risk.
Do not, I repeat, do not, take any action that will restrict my ability to own shares in these funds. Investors can and will make educated decisions without your restrictions. Don't take that right away from us.
Having testing standards for investments such as these is overreach to individual's rights to do as they see with their money. FINRA should consider doing EVERYTHING possible to make it easier for everyone TO invest, and not work to limit options or create testing strategies for participation. Ultimately - that provides less equality - and not more.
We should have the right to pick any investment and risk we want. Please stop interfering with our rights. Thank you,
You need to leave this industry alone. If you want to do something meaningful, stop devaluing the dollar and make sure we have economic freedom. Capital will fly where its appreciated. Your job is to make sure capital lands here.
I am capable of making my own choices and taking my own risks if I choose ,taking away crypto to the general public is just another for of control and keeping the poor poor. Just tax crypto earnings but let anyone who wants to ,invest
This is extremely disturbing information that FINRA would seek to limit individual investor access to more complex investment products. Retail investors are already saddled with significant disadvantages. This only serves to further stack the regulations against them. I invested in leveraged products fully aware of the inherent risks. To take these investments away from those retail investors that know and understand these risks in the name of protection is disingenuous at best.
