Let the public decide how they invest their funds. Leveraged and inverse funds are key funds that democratize the investment process - otherwise these types of instruments are only in the hands of the top 1%, rather than everyone.

The investment environment became very difficult because it could not keep inflation under control and because of all government spending and the war they created lately people are losing all their savings in the market It is not time for changing rules until the government correct the mess it created

Leveraged S&P funds have been critical to how I take advantage of trends as well as manage risk in my portfolio simplistically without the need for margin or options. Do not take them away!

This proposition poses a severe threat towards market fairness. Retail investors are already at a disadvantage when it comes to available tools and information compared to institutions. Restrictions like this will only tip the balance even more.

Retail traders or investors should be able to freely choose whatever products that fit their trading strategies. Finance is NOT only for the rich or the privileged. We know what leveraged funds are, and we dont need the government to tell us how to invest our own money!

You shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before you can invest in public
securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. Explain
that you are capable of understanding leveraged and
inverse funds and their risks. Tell regulators you do
not need these measures imposed on you.

Taking this freedom away is wrong, Public
investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.

I strongly believe that I should be able to choose publicly traded companies as I see fit for my investments. i fully understand the risks involved with leverage and I accept them.

Hi there, Banning retail access to leveraged products unfairly advantages the richest people in our country. Leveraged broad market indices allow more opportunity for common investors to generate income. There are infinitely more speculative and risky investment choices that the common investor would choose if leveraged products are banned. There is no logical sense in banning a product to everyone but the rich institutional investor. I could see how a disclaimer or a quick quiz, like the one required for options trading, could be used. But an outright ban is nonsense. Thanks.

I would like to continue investing in leveraged ETFs. Please don't change the rules.

Investment restrictions on leveraged products should not have significant restrictions. A simple age-based (e.g. 25 0r 30 years old) and/or small investable assets requirement (e.g. $25,000) along with attesting to reading a warning statement regarding possible losses should be the MAXIMUM restriction. Please do NOT limit to "high net worth" (this does not necessarily potend an investor's knowledge level or perceived ability to assume the risk).

Big Bankers, and stock Commodity Firms, do not have the right to manipulate the voice of the PEOPLE, WE THE PEOPLE have put our money into these firms to grow retirement accounts, we did not choose to be deceive and make laws that fit their agenda.

a well as, some Americans have ethics, you many not be privy to that work, it means that I would like to invest in American owned companies, and not support other corrupt governments, as we see has been going since the 80's.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,
not just the privileged.
