This petition is being promoted by people who want to scam ordinary folks. The existing rules about unregistered security purchases are, if anything, too weak -- as evidenced by the proliferation of pump-and-dump cryptocurrency offerings and other scams.

I am opposed to the regulatory oversight of my investments. My investments are the direct results of my hard work and should be controlled by me.

This is a [REDACTED] rule. It should either apply to all investments or none. And obviously applying it to all investments is stupid. Therefore, applying to just leveraged or inverse funds is also stupid. LET US EAT CAKE!!!

I think people should have the right to choose their financial destiny. I have made significant profits using options and actually ran into more issues with imposed regulations and stockbroker policies. There are plenty of tools out there to learn about options. I do understand placing monetary limits on certain types of trading to avoid massive defaults but these should be allowed. Also, you could reduce some of the risks by changing the settlement and timing rules.

Keep your hands and laws out of our hard earned momey

Stop trying to so call protect the public while continuing to take away investment tools they choose to use.

I am very much opposed to any limits or restrictions on an individual investor's ability to purchase non-leveraged inverse ETFs. These securities allow individual investors to hedge during periods when traditional markets are experiencing negative returns. For example, during the first four months of 2022 SPY was down (12.99)%, but SH had a positive return of 12.85% Likewise, IEF had a negative return of (10.33)%, but TBX was up 10.71%. Like all investments, inverse ETFs involve risks, but they enable small investors to mitigate overall market risk.

It is violation of the constitution (life, LIBERTY, and the pursuit of happiness) for anyone to regulate how I invest my money excepting those involving terrorism. This is such an insane regulation that I thought it was a joke.

I would like to own my investment decisions. Leveraged funds are risky but also rewarding and I use them with a small portion of my wealth. I would like to continue doing so without having to compete on knowledge with day traders.

I use inverse and leveraged ETF's to reduce risk in my portfolio. They allow me to preserve assets without large amounts of selling and missing out on dividends.
