I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST, I SHOULD BE ALLOWED TO INVEST MY MONEY IN PUBLIC SHARES HOWEVER I SEE FIT

I feel these leveraged funds are an important tool for short term hedging, and their price move potential is no more than other volatile stocks or derivatives.

Hello, I believe everyone should be able to choose the public investments that are right for them and their family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I use them for hedging, as well as investing at times of downturn, like today. I am perfectly capable of understanding their risks.

I have traded these investments for years and made good money. This year, now that I have losses you are going to take them away? If so you need to pay me for my COST first!

I adamantly oppose any regulation that prohibits me from freely investing my money. Risk are inherent in investing and trying to tell me how much risk I can take is against the constitution and UnAmerican

I don't understand the rationale behind limiting what private party investors can invest in. if its my money and i signed that i read and understand the risks, why are you or anyone going to tell me i cant? this mentality flies in harmony with the idiotic thinking that congress votes Obama care for EVERYONE except themselves... or the vaccine is a mandate for everyone except them. we are way over controlled by people who think they know better than everyone else but dont even believe it themselves. morons.

Greetings,
The FINRA legislation as proposed is very unfair and biased. The investing public in a free market system should be able to buy securities as they choose, as long as they understand the risk associated with it. FINRA legislation his biased against investors with small amounts to invest and gives advantages to institutional investors and high net-worth individuals. The investing game is essentially rigged for the monied class.

I agree with the limitations being proposed. Retail investors are not generally suitable for these products. If an investor is suitable they can pass a simple test to acknowledge their understanding of the risks similar to options or futures enabled accounts.

Everyone should have the ability to invest in products they believe offer favorable chances for returns. If this is removed from retail investor access it should be removed from access by institutions as well.

Imposing laws to prohibit and make it harder for the average person to invest is wrong. Actions like this are the reason many people distrust the government and the top 1% income earners. We should be able to invest our money to build wealth and stability for our families without "tests" and needing "permission" from a broker. Funds help to build out my portfolio especially my IRA account which will only help to make my future financial situation more stable.
