Hello:

I am writing to voice my opposition to the proposed rules for investing in leveraged and inverse funds. Its a violation of my rights as an investor and imposes unreasonable burden on my ability to trade in a timely manner. I consider myself well informed and do not need additional regulations to guide my investment choices. Leveraged and inverse products are an important part of my investment strategy. They provide important hedging functions and enhance returns as part of my overall portfolio.

Thanks You.

This is a capitalist country where we support business and investments. Removing this ability through leveraged and inverse ETFs is contradictory to the values and freedoms on which this country is built on.

Please do not limit the people's ability to utilize these great products.

I oppose restriction to my right to invest my money as I see fit. In a free country I should be able to choose what investments are right for me and my family. Exchange traded funds, both leveraged and inverse are an important element to my investing strategy. They allow me to hedge other investments, and to take advantage of situations when I believe that the market is likely to move in a certain direction. If you restrict this right, only the elites on Wall Street will have the ability to utilize these perfectly reasonable and appropriate investments. Thank you,

Please do not limit my ability to trade in leveraged or inverse funds.!!! It is my business what I do with my investments! Stay out of my business!

It could potentially deny me the freedom to choose investments that could help me achieve long-term financial security.

All investments contain risk. Leveraged index instruments in particular do not carry any higher risks, say, than pre-revenue stocks or stocks that generate negative earnings. Even blue-chip and/or trusted companies can rarely be held forever (e.g. NFLX).
FINRA: either impose these draconian measures on all these investments or leave then all alone.

This is an absolute infringement on my right to an American dream! The regulatory system in this country has gotten completely out of control! I choose to use these securities to hedge long postions. This will NOT help anyone achieve freedom. You are literally regulating the wealth gap larger.

We, retail investors, should have the freedom to choose the right public investment tools. Some people's losses should not limit other people's usage, and our ordinary investors should not be punished accordingly. Also, we understand the leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. There are lots of publicly available materials online and disclosures. After all, if one invests in something he/she does not understand, then even the investment in normal unleveraged stocks or ETFs can lose money, and it has nothing to do with leverage or inverse.
