These are public investments and should be available to the public. If someone is silly enough to invest in the market without the proper knowledge that person will most likely lose their entire investment. With that said, the market is serious stuff. Making profits in the market is only possible if we, the public, can continue to use all the various instruments available in order to make profits. With restrictions in place, it would make it extremely difficult to make profits. If there are folks out there investing without knowledge, they are not going to be IN the market very long.

Investors should be allowed to make their own investment decisions rather than being imposed by over-regulation by the government. I am strongly opposed to any restrictions. In our free market society there are various investment alternatives that do not receive this type of regulation nor should they. All of these investment alternatives as well as Proshares vehicles provide investors investment strategies that help achieve goals.

Let me buy inverse funds, or any other investment, I know what I'm doing and I know the risks of buying inverse funds.

I have used leveraged investment funds for years. I am fully aware of the risks on the up- and down side. The fund issuers explain and highlight the risks and opportunities in full detail. I think that new Government restrictions on the use of these funds are not needed and justified and should not be imposed on me. Investors must have the nonrestrictive right to decide which investments are timely to be made.Government must allow investors to make these investment decisions also for these investment vehicles.

Having option to invest in leveraged and inverse funds keep me protected from market volatility. It should be choice of INVESTORS and not regulators nor only allowed for wall streets. !!

I oppose any limitation on trading leveraged or inversed funds. It against freedom.

Please refrain from trying to limit my options for investing. I have been investing for over 30 years using my own judgment. I do not need your guidance or protection. It should be my choice in which funds to invest, for better or worse, not your unilateral prohibitions.

THere are too mant thied parties in the investment theatre now. Enough is enough.

I am against regulating the leveraged and inverse ETFs.
My brokerage co. Fidelity make you read a statement and request that you are able to invest in what they term more aggressive investments. I appreciate the ability to be able to invest in leverage fund instead of having to do it through playing with margins (i.e. loans) and inverse without actually having to mess with shorting a stock.

I oppose this.
Leveraged and inverse funds are good for trading rather trading a single share.
This gives diversify investment for short term gain
