What makes are American economy and stock market great is the ability to choose how we invest our time, talent, and of course money. For many the idea of growing assets through investments is a beautiful mechanism and the reason we wake up ready for work every morning. I love the financial industry and have worked in it for many years. When working with clients, I always try to follow the rules and regulations set forth by FINRA and the SEC. These are both fine establishments attempting to maintain order in sometimes a chaotic world.

Please allow the the public to invest as they please. I oppose restrictions on leveraged and inverse funds.

You have no reason and no rights to make someone submit a test to invest in companies. Along with that, ask someone to show their networth and be worth over a certain amount. This is a capatalist country. Lets keep it that way!

I am opposed to restrictions on my right to invest in public security's.

Individual investors should have the same access to all kinds of securities including leveraged and inverse funds as institution investors in a free market. I understand how leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I am fully capable of managing my own money and making my own investment decisions. I do not want and need to take a test to approve myself to anyone.

Please dont make any changes to the current rules on leveraged ETFs. Its a great tool that regular, individual investors like me can use to grow assets.

I spend alot of time researching and pay consulants for information for stocks to buy. I don't feel it should be up to somebody else to decide if we can buy shares of any stock.
Everyday the stock market is a risk i am willing to take, i feel this more would allow the rich to become richer and block the everyday Joe out from making money. I feel ther is a hidden agenda behind this.

Dear Sir or Madam, I oppose any limitations on my ability to buy or sell inverse ETFs. They play a critical role in protecting my family's retirement portfolio against market volatility. Any restrictions will hinder our ability to do so and may result in reduced retirement savings which could significantly modify our plans for the future. Thank you for your consideration.

Please do not limit my ability to invest in what I choose to invest in.

I oppose the proposed regulations that would restrict my ability to invest in leverage or inverse mutual funds, or similarily Exchange Traded Funds. A legal investor should be able to purchase these securities once they have received or acknowled receiving the appropriate disclosure notifications. Additional testing or licensing should not be required of the investor. These instruments have a role that they can play for hedging during a volatile environment environment.
