Comments:Hey [REDACTED]. You seem to be missing the point on the entire industry. You have several ETFS, and mutual funds, which are quite complex, and never accurate about which holdings they have. You have advisors trained to sell packaged products in complex markets that were never meant to be packaged and sold to begin with. Now you pick on directional ETFS like they are any more unsafe or complex than things you sell to the public as such. [REDACTED]

Comments: Leverage and inverse fund are part of my investment planning. I under stand full risk of it impact on my portfolio. so before you ristric fund from trading provide more eduaction to the investor all investment product not for all. They should talk to thier adviser before investing this product. so please do not punish all investor because some investor does not under stand.

Comments:I do not believe Leveraged 2X or 3X Funds, ETFs, or the like need any further regulation or disclosures for public trading.. There are currently disclosures available on Providers Websites and Traders likely know what they are investing in. Please do not cause any further regulations to hinder traders from investing in these leveraged investments. Thank you. James Hunter

Comments:In a capitalst society such as ours, I see no reason to regulate leveraged & inverse ETF's. They are simpler than shorting stocks or using put's & calls. I have found that they correlate to their 1X base very close. Their usually is no limitations even in a retirement account. Please, please we don't need this senseless regualation. Thank you, Roger Smith

Comments: I believe that access to complex investment products should be accessible to all who want access to such things. Brokers may want to limit access or provide clear warnings of involved risks for such instruments, as some infact do already. Novice investors, or anyone who doesn't understand the risks involved would likely be deterred from risky investment decisions if access to risky products was disabled by default for brokerage accounts, granting access only to accounts that have opted in and waived certain liabilities.

Comments: As a retired Registered Investment Advisor of 38 years without a single complaint, I highly recommend you NOT change investor's access or ability to trade complex products, including and especially leveraged and inverse ETFs. Retail investor's net purchases of such leveraged ETFs have been rising steadily over the past few years, with the 10-day rolling sum recently exceeding $1b, demonstrating their demand.

Comments:I consider retail investors should be given equal opportunity to use Leverage and Inverse funds and ETF. I fully understand the nature and risk associated with this products and that they are not intended for long time investment, as such they must be monitored frequently. Also my broker advice and warns before placing every trade of the risk associated by using this funds and ETFs. I sincerely appreciate the time you are taking on considering my request.

Comments: Making it harder for me to invest in ETFs is not good. However, tightening ropes around the big boys might be needed to spare over inflated prices and volumes.

Comments: Please do not modify rules related to leveraged ETFs. I personally understand the risks of leveraged ETFs, but at the same time the value. I use leveraged ETFs to enhance my portfolio returns. I also recognize that these products may result in larger than average swings in valuation. However, if you look at a long-term strategy of using leveraged ETFs, you will recognize that these allow people to generate income that is greater than average market returns. Thanks very much.

Comments: My name is Maurice Edwards, and I have been using L&I investment vehicles (as well as other complex products like options) for many years and I don't want my financial opportunities to be regulated away. I spent the time picking up the knowledge and experience to use these assets, and after all that my outcomes are to my liking.
