Using inverse funds is a critical part of an investment strategy and in down markets one of the better strategies to still be able to get a positive return. I highly encourage you to not put limitations on this investment vehicle.

I want to be able to choose what investments are right for me without having to go through any special process or meeting certain criteria. I use leveraged and inverse funds as a limited part of my portfolio to seek enhanced returns. They should not be limited to the ultra wealthy.

The use of complex products is required in a complex investing climate. Do not limit their use.

Investors should be allowed access to leveraged and inverse products. I've been extremely successful with them and find them a better choice than using options.

No politician should vote to restrict our choices of personal investment especially given the track record of politicians using material non-public information with regularity for years. Politicians did not have the ethical standards to make it illegal all those years, I see no reason why they should try to restrict inverse products in front of a potential recession and stock market drop. I'm sure they will be excluded from these restrictions and the imbalance it will likely cause. This is pretty outrageous.

This would be incredibly unfair and certainly not in line with our constitutional rights. We aren't in grade school and if we work and earn our OWN money then we should have a protected right to invest it any way we feel is best for us.

Regulators need to keep their noses out of investor's business. We should be free to choose which investments we purchase, or ignore. Not only does making regulations more strict go against the very nature of the United States, it could greatly endanger those holding positions in those securities as holders could be forced out at inopportune times leading to forced losses BY THE REGULATORS. This would be the biggest tragedy of all, regulators CAUSING LOSSES to protect the public!

Please don't restrict my ability to trade "complex productswhich could include the leveraged and inverse funds. My net worth is relatively low, but I am perfectly capable of reading pertinent documents and I fully understand what my risk are when trading. I have been trading leveraged and inverse funds for years and want to continue doing so.

We DO NOT need more government intervention or regulation of my /our money!!
Its bad enough Wall Street is manipulated by the few and effects the many. ENOUGH!

This is over-regulation. It is unnecessary regulation.
Why treat investors as if we are children? Please give us some credit.
Frankly, this is infuriating!
Take a deep breathe and stop parenting for goodness sakes!
