I opposed restrictions to my right to invest leverage and inverse funds. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me hedge my investments and I use them as a limited part of my portfolio. In addition, public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I am writing to oppose restrictions on leveraged and inverse funds. Both of those funds allow investors to engage in investment strategies that is already allowed in an efficient manner. For example, Regulation T margin and portfolio margin offered by brokers already allows significant leverage and an inverse fund could be implemented by shorting the underlying security.

People should be able to choose the public investments that are right for themselves and families.

The Fed and Congress together have conjured, and spent, $6,500,000,000,000 in two years. This coupled with inflation are devaluing the dollar.

FINRAs response? Take control of Crypto and block the exits.

Separately, FINRA is trying to prevent retail investors from trading downward during this decline and instead force them to lock their retirement monies in long. Only long. This is criminal.

Please allow investors to be in equal footing with institutions

Investing has helped me grow my portfolio at a young age, and removing complex investing strategies will make it harder for me to learn

I have not used leveraged funds but inverse funds are an important part of my investment strategy as protection against market downturns and also for selling options. Brokerage companies already issue appropriate warnings to their customers re: risks. Please do not restrict access to these funds.

The public has the right to choose their investments

Re: FINRA Ive Invested in the Markets for over 12yrs, Ive always appreciated the fact that I could Invest freely, make my own choices and decisions on what, where, Why & when I choose to Invest, Moreover, and based on the proliferation & numerous tools & Resources available to the Individual Retail Investor these days the case for the freedom of choice became even more compelling These same tools, like none other, have helped investors make Informed decisions, and at last Leveled the playing field btw Institut.

You should restrict political parties aka politicians instead of the little people.
