Leveraged investments should be available to public investors, regulation on leveraged ETFs will not lower the risk of stock market investments but will rather lower the freedom of the market itself. Power will also shift from individuals to major institutions who are able to meet proposed measures. These institutions will then have even more power against common investors. Leverage will not go away, it will simply be shifted to those who already have power and influence.

Stop meddling in private business. Our government has made.a mess of our country .by doing things just like this and we,the citizens of the U.S., are sick of regulations that are not in the interests of the people.

America is a free country founded on the principles of liberty. It is not governments role or authority to govern where citizens invest. Leveraged an inverse funds offer portfolio hedging that is otherwise difficult to obtain via standard trading accounts.

Don't need people to tell me what I can't do when it comes to my investment

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST

Investors should have the free right to choose whatever that's suitable for their strategies. Not to mention that many funds on this list are used heavily to hedge our portfolios and reduce the risk exposure. By limiting our rights, you are actually putting more risk to our portfolios rather than protecting them.

Think Twice!

Each investor should have the right to decide how he or she will invest their own funds. Any restrictions are simply a ploy to prevent middle America from getting ahead. The Finra proposal is an outrage in a supposedly free country.

I am totally opposed to Regulatory Notice #22-08.

The pubic restricted from investing in public securities is a America was never supposed to be the over-regulated, freedom restricted, over taxed, rights infringing nation it is increasingly headed towards. Placing restriction on our general public and bestowing more privilege to the wealthy defeats the purpose of a free and public market and direct investment. Just the consideration of such restrictions insults our intelligence, and is in direct violation of our rights as citizens.

Stay out of my life and my business

Regarding inverse and leveraged funds and other similar investments: I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me without a bunch of hurdles and money grabs.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
