I am very much opposed to restrictions on investing in leveraged and inverse funds. These funds are the average investor's only way to protect himself/herself in market downturns. An individual's potential losses in these funds are limited to the amount of the investment made as opposed to actual shorting of securities where losses can be far greater than the investment made. These funds represent a prudent alternative to the more radical and dangerous ways to seek protection in market downturns. Such restrictions would harm many investors.

I agree,
I should be able to make these trades wuthout new paper work.

I am one of million's of self directed investor in the USA.
I believe that an individual should have the access to invest in leveraged and inverse funds without restriction.
It should be the decision of individual investor to find out what kind of investment is suitable for him.
I prefer that FINRA should not restrict my ability to invest.
Thanks

Crypto assets are not just an investment. They are not just a method of transacting. They are an entirely new technology stack upon which new technologies and relationships will be built. Please allow people to decide how they invest and what innovations they choose to support.

Please cease your attempts to restrict my current freedom to invest in public securities of my choosing! Why are you and the federal government trying to control every decision that an individual makes?!

In the past 20 or so years, we have had three major market corrections of approximately 37%, 40% and 50%. In all of those cases, it would take close to 10 years to recover the losses, based on normal rates of returns (for example, a 50% drop requires 100% returns to become whole). If you started retirement savings at a time later than ideal, for any number of reasons, you need the ability to try to retire at acceptable levels, and leveraged funds can allow this to take place.

Keep your nose out of our business and your hands off our money.
Thank you, please.

Pls allow investments

I want to be allowed to make my own financial decisions unrestrained by govt controls. Levereaged and inverse funds are useful and important parts of my investement strategy

There are worse investments in the IPO world that really should be more regulated . The IPO's are a lot more risky that the majority of Leveraged and inverse funds. No one seems to care on the pump and dumps that happen every week! They are a lot more dangerous that the Leveraged and inverse ETF's !
