Leveraged and inverse funds have become an important part of my portfolio. And many other people that I know. No one I know has ever use them in appropriately. And ultimately, its our choice if we choose to be more aggressive or less aggressive in these tools. I do not believe we need the government telling us what we can or cant do investing our money over and beyond what they already do. I dont need your protection in this.

I have the choices to buy leveraged ETF.

I am opposed to limiting the investments of individuals. I believe it's an investor's right to have access to the entirety of markets without regulatory interference and restrictions.

Dear FINRA,

It is heart-breaking to hear that you are considering to restrict retail investors to trade leveraged ETFs. I strongly object any limitation that might be applied on trading leverage ETFs.

It is my personal right to use the financial instrument that I choose to invest my own money. The leverage should be available to all of the public, not just the rich and privileged. Any restriction on my freedom to trade leveraged ETFs should be considered as unconstitutional.

Finra, i strongly disagree ! no regulations on the public purchase of leveraged or inverse securities, period. that is ridiculous, thank you, nick brescia

Please DO NOT STEAL MY FREEDOM TO CHOOSE !!! Allow small investors the freedom to play in the big sandbox with institutional traders without leveraging their accounts . Little fish are part of the ecosystem too . MUST YOU TAKE ALL OF OUR FREEDOMS AWAY IN THIS LAND OF THE FREE AND HOME OF THE BRAVE .

Hello, I am a retail investor who regularly buys and sells leveraged index fund products. I trade these funds based on a strategy I have developed with great research and care, and know full well the risks involved. Leveraged index funds provide retail investors access to position-sizing and diversification strategies that would be too onerous for such investors to implement themselves.

Retail Investors, not regulators , should decide what public investments are right for them and their family without discrimination.

Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged, i.e. high net worth investors.

If public investments are restricted or heavily burdened
by various barriers such as subjective tests, permissions, then this is the first step to end public free markets, and end many financial services. Current disclosures and education are sufficient.
Thanks

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. This is only way for me to protect my portfolio during down trend without futures or options. I totally need that

Regulators should not be involved in the decision of what I can invest in and what I can't invest in. It is not the job of ANY government agency to determine what I do with my hard earned money. There should not be any "special process" that I must follow, such as passing a test, before I can make my own investment choice.
I do not want or need these or any other government measures imposed on me.
The thought that a government agency should be able to dictate whether I am competent enough to make my own decisions is completely ludicrous!
