Its not necessary to add additional restrictions on leveraged investments.

THIS IS A SHAM AFTER 40 YRS OF INVESTING.NOW YOU WANT TO CHANGE THE RULE IN THE MIDLE OF THE GAME. THIS WILL MAKE ME STAY AWAY FROM YOUR GAMES. I SHOULD BE ABLE TO CHOSE THE INVESTMENT NOT THE REGULATORS.

Instead of focusing control of smaller investors why not focus on manipulation of the market and securities by the larger financial groups practicing Short Selling. That faction ruins a "fair" market for all and is apparently legal theft and manipulation. I thought the point of "fair and equal" market rules and regulations was to prevent theft and manipulation. (?)

To bar retail investors from using their own money to invest in the funds you are proposing to be banned is an egregious violation of the free market. There is nothing that the common man should not be allowed to spend his money on. This is a thinly veiled sham to keep the millions of common people out of the market while allowing the rich to continue how they always have. The last two years have shown that retail investors are stronger than what you imagined and this is your response. Pathetic.

No body of government has any right to tell the common man what and when he is allowed to invest his earnings. We have the basic right to attain to improve our position in life. actions such as these restrictions would impose, openly call to restrict people to particular classes of society. Actions such as these would openly create a new system of castes and open aritocracy. Those things are in direct opposition to the very concept of the right to the persuit of happiness.

My financial decisions are mine and mine alone. Stay out of the business of "protecting" small retail investors, you DON'T know what's best for everyone.

We dont need another law telling us who can invest in what. This is just another way to hurt the working class.

Dear Sirs;
This country was founded on liberty. Please do not limit liberty by passing these regulations.

Respectfully,

I am a small investor who uses leveraged ETFs regularly. Stay out of the way. Last thing we need is more unnecessary regulation.

I have been studying the financial markets for the last forty years. And use a measured approach in using leveraged ETFs. On highly liquid ETFs they are a very affective tool for investing and hedging positions.
Leveraged ETFs already carry warnings.
I don't appreciate further infringements on my right to make financial decisions.
I'm sure FINRA has plenty to do without infringing on my rights.
