This is nothing more than economic discrimination, reserving the capital appreciation potential of leveraged instruments exclusively to the wealthiest investors. This is a free market, so let's keep it that way.
I am self-educated through independent research analysts and practical experience and accept full responsibility for the outcome of my investing activities. Please don't "protect" me.

Stop focusing on how to limit the market. Instead focus on how government officials can get away with inside trading.

Do not restrict our choice of what to invest in. You need to look deep into your own failings to enforce regulation we already have especially for the big boys. You need to watch the documentary China Hustle.

I want to express my public comment that I am not in agreement with proposed FINRA regulations to restrict my right to acquire leveraged and inverse funds.

I understand how these funds work and am well aware of the he risks associated with investments in these funds. While I have experienced losses in these kinds of investments, they have provided me with investing options that have helped me build wealth. I have used these funds for investing for at least 15 years. There are risks with all investment options. And I am well aware of the risks.

I am often amazed by the selection of investment vehicles available to the average investor. As seasoned investor with almost 22 years of investing experience, I fully appreciate my freedom to choose which investments I make. Some products in question are a regular part of my well planned investment strategy. I am against the idea of restrictions on investments or requiring additional licensing or certifications to execute my investment strategy.

I feel it is unlawful for the government to limit my investment options.

Government over reach is a horrible thing. Are you stopping people from entering casinos next?
Diversified leveraged investing isnt right for all but for a percentage of your portfolio, it can actually enhance returns while lowering risk. Dont take away our freedom to invest in our country and the future of our children.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.

Dear Sir or Madame, I appreciate you hearing my comments regarding your desire to limit inverse and leveraged funds. First of all, we have a right to participate in the market in this area, since I'm aware that every large brokerage institution (bank) has the ability to short or go long the market. Why would you restrict the ability of the average investor to accomplish the same goals, and that is the protection of our assets. Many investors have been harmed by the buy and hold strategy, and have, in effect, had little or no return on their investments.

Hi. Leveraged ETFs are important to a sound investment strategy. Please stop trying to regulate stupidity. If a moron wants to get on Robinhood and lose everything since they dont understand investing, thats their problem. Dont punish the rest of us for their sins.
