It would be incredibly unfair. This is the only way the little guy can play fairly in the market.

Please keep access easy and open like it is now and only add regulations where situations with cause would trigger an action to investigate and/or take action after some due process.

The average Joe is capable of investing without interference. The last thing this country needs is more regulation and oversight. If you need something to do, join the green idiots in congress and focus on something really useless.

IT'S UNFAIR TO NOT ALLOW US TO TRADE/INVEST IN LEVERAGED ETF'S WHEN YOU HAVE GIVEN EVERY DISCLOSURE KNOWN TO MAN IN AN ATTEMPT TO PROTECT INVESTORS. IF YOU'VE GIVEN DISCLOSURES OF RISK AND I HAVE HALF A BRAIN IN MY HEAD I SHOULD BE ABLE TO DO WITH MY MONEY WHAT I WISH. THE AMOUNT OF REGULATION HAS BECOME ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS AND ANNOYING, ESPECIALLY FOR PEOPLE WHO HAVE BEEN THROUGH SEVERAL CRASHES AND BULL MARKETSS OVER ALMOST 40 YEARS AS I HAVE. INVERSE FUNDS ARE THE ONLY WAY TO PROTECT INVESTORS. DON'T LIMIT THE AVAILABILITY.

I should have the right to and freedom to invest in any funds. I'm an adult that can choose my own risks and rewards and shouldn't be limited to such. I find this proposed rule a corrupt fraudulent act.

It's so important to survive these difficult times to have a place to run I only have $90,000 If you want to regulate the big boys fine but please leave the little investors free. Thanking you in advance Norm

Leveraged ETFs and inverse ETFs give individual investors reliable tools with which to hedge against market downturns. The leverage on the short side for inverse ETFs allows them to hold a smaller position against existing longer-term holdings as a hedge in the same manner that professionals use futures to achieve the same goal. On the long side, they allow investors to participate in market upside, e.g., bull markets, in a manner that avoid headline risk with individual stocks.

Please dont take away choices from me. I believe inverse trading will be profitable. I know you dont care about me. You only care about lobbying money and big banks. Not surprising.

As an independent investor, I find this potential regulation to be insulting and diminishing. Americans have a right to invest in securities and other financial products as they deem fit. Please do not take this harmful action against our freedoms.

Though reasonably well intended, new regulations that make it more difficult for retail investors to access sophisticated investing tools are the opposite of what free market investing should look like. In a time where equal access is of upmost importance, these proposed rules further the perception of inequality that is already a dark cloud in the mind of many Americans who avoid investing for the future.
