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.

I think the drive to protect investors is nearly always misguided by regulators.

LEVERAGED FUNDS ARE EASY TO UNDERSTAND AND ARE A GOOD WAY TO ENHANCE RETURNS. THERE IS RISK WITH EVERYTHING, BUT OPTIONS ARE FAR MORE OF A RISK TO AVERAGE INVESTORS.

Speculation works in both directions

Leveraged and inverse fund are the best way to hedge against the swings. Do not give brokers more power over what I can buy. It's still considered my money...right?

I would like to keep buying cryptocurrency ETFs as its a less risky way to invest in cryptocurrency for someone as poor as I am.

I have successfully traded leveraged and inverse funds for years now. I understand the risks and benefits. I find it counterproductive in a free society to have a government preventing investments that aid in leveraging an investment account to individuals who know how they trade.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged or those whom regulators arbitrarily deem worthy. I shouldn't have to go through any wasteful and inefficient bureaucratic process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities. The risks of leveraged and inverse funds are mine and are made clear to me through the fund managers and widely available information. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds.

No!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
