Stay away regulators! Let the market do what it wants! Adam Smith and the invisible hand!

I would like to retain my
Ability to buy leveraged funds. Investors should be able to choice their investment vehicles without government interference. I understand the risks involved and it is my right to make that decision not anyone elses.

I am totally against any attempt from federal government regulators or lawmakers imposing any kind of restrictions on my ability to purchase ETFs, or any public investment funds. It is an extreme overreach of federal government. I do not want federal government regulators deciding if I am fit or qualified to invest based on some outlandish set of rules put on me and other investors. It is another example of power hungry bureaucrats making a power grab. Such regulations will negatively impact the markets and our economy.

Avoid restrictions

These regulations are a solution in search of a problem. The government isnt my brothers keeper. Let the people invest the way they want.

This is absurd, these funds are less leveraged than options and futures!

I believe that inverse funds are necessary to effectively manage my portfolio. As an individual investor it can be very challenging to hedge against market volatility and large draw-downs in the market. Inside retirement accounts, I have very few tools to hedge my portfolio, shorting and options are generally not allowed. That leaves buying of inverse ETFs as one of the few options to provide some hedging protection for my long positions.

I oppose ANY regulation limiting my choice to invest in any product or service of my choice.
We should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
We shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before we can invest in public securities,
like leveraged and inverse funds. I and others are
capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds helping me protect (hedge) my investments and their risks.

I have worked hard to make money and have found inverse products to be a great way to protect my investments over the years as well as a great way to make return and to protect my investments. Please dont take this great product away for just average older investors

I want the freedom to use investment vehicles I deem appropriate for my risk tolerance. leverage seems to be a problem for the large institutional investor. Individuals like myself use leverage at a much lower exposure. Regulate the institutional investor not the individual.
