I oppose the proposed regulations to limit access to leveraged and inverse funds. I regularly use such investments to take advantage of key trends and, most importantly, to help manage risk in my investment portfolio. With uncertain times and high inflation ahead, having access to these investments for everyone is more important than ever.

Restricting retail traders' access to levered products further tilts the table toward the financially privileged. All players should have access to all products.

I, not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
And, Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
This needs to be taken seriously
by FINRA.
Not only do I have the right to share my views,
but you are required to take my comments into
consideration in deciding whether to move forward.

People should be able to choose investments that are right for them and their family. Public investments needs to be available to everyone, not just the privileged.

I wanted the option to invest in these types of accounts

Investors should be allowed to invest in products without any encumbrances from regulators. This is an action to benefit the financial institutions that pay Finra.

Investors are already warned enough on leveraged ETFs that there is no reason for additional regulations and warnings for individual retail investors. Investors should be able to risk their hard earned money in ways they see fit for themselves. Individuals should have a right to use financial products they see fit to use in order to achieve their short term financial goals. Adding additional regulation will only hinder, not help, individual achieve their goals. I urge FINRA to keep the status quo on leveraged ETFs.

Leave our investment alone

This isn't your money. Back off.

Sophisticated investor rules are outdated in the age of the internet. I have multiple degrees related to investment and financial analysis. Under the Sophisticated investor rules I cant invest in certain opportunities, and now you want to expand that? Excluding the average American from any investment opportunity does nothing but ensure that those who are already wealthy will continue to gain the majority of the benefit from private investments. And under the proposed changes will ensure they have an unfair advantage in capital markets as well.
