Violating my right to invest violates my freedom of speech. Further regulations will be what continues to divide the rich from the poor. cancel this immediately.

I strongly believe that the current requirements in place for trading leveraged and inverse ETFs are sufficient for investor protection. Please do not restrict access to trading these, because that would severely limit investment opportunities in these popular instruments. Instead, I would recommend that brokers be urged to provide additional education on both risks and benefits if these popular, highly traded ETFs.

Thank you for consideration,

As a regular citizen investing, I understand that investments carry risk. The argument for restricting inverse and leveraged funds is probably to reduce my risk, but if you reduce all my risk down to nothing, what's the point? I might as well put all my money in a savings account. Please let me continue to make my own choices.

Government needs to leave the people alone as it was intended
At our founding. No unnecessary regulations.

This preposterous regulatory proposal is infuriatingly ill-conceived. It's both insulting to my decades of investing knowledge, and detrimental to my investment strategy. The notion that FINRA will categorically restrict my financial freedoms, especially given my successful use of leveraged investment products for over a decade, smacks of naivete, and a completely wrong-headed babysitting mentality. I would implore FINRA to back off this onerous, cudgeling implementation of a faux investor protection.

I strongly oppose taking away retail traders’ right from trading complex products. This is unconstitutional and unfair as it only allows the rich to invest. The right and privilege to freely invest one’s own money on any products should be for all and not just the privileged.

I want to keep my freedom.

Please, dont change regulations on our investments. I fear any government changes as in general they hurt small investors with undue new regulations in an effort to grab dollars from earnings!

I can make my own investment choices and don't need the government to tell me what I can and cannot do. The public is quite tired of Gov't interference. Every American should have the same investment choices across the board and not only available to the privileged. Also, I am perfectly capable of understanding inverse and leveraged ETFs and your assumption or implication that I cannot is insulting.
