I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST
Comments:Given that it's been banks and wall street that has crashed the stock market numerous times with their wild gambling and poor planning, even though they're supposedly sophisticated traders with lovely certificates attesting to the fact, perhaps you should tighten regulations on the financial giants and leaches in the system before you go after the small people. Have retail buyers sign an agreement that it carries additional risk like options, this proposal is silly and just another regulation not aimed at the right people given the current financial situation.
Any attempt to restrict my free and open access to utilize these financial assets will be met with immediate and justified organized class action litagation. These types of attacks on the investors that have been using these products for multiple years, have no need to provide PROOF that we understand what we are doing . It is evident that the consideration to ban access to these products NOW that they might be utilized most effectively is PROOF FINRA is corrupt to the core! Shame on the corrupt regulators...... COMMUNIST DICTATORS!

I do not want you interfering with my right to purchase leveraged or inverse securities.

Leave these investment funds unregulated, open and free to all investors. It is up to us as investors to determine our own levels of risk vs. return possibility and we as investors in these funds are responsible for any and all of the outcomes from these investments. Personally, inverse ETF funds are my only vehicle to short markets due to retirement account restrictions. Eliminating my access would severely limit my investment returns. Why should only large investment firms or professional traders benefit from all the possible investment strategies that are available?
i would like access to being able to invest
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST
I object to the proposed restrictions. Special tests and selective criteria is another attempt by FINRA and the SEC to discriminate against small investors under guise of market manipulation prevention. Your targeted investors are adult and should have the freedom to make their own investment decisions. I use inverse funds to hedge against market decreases.
