I'd like to have a say on what I can invest in.

I have read that you are considering a new rule to impose substantial restrictions on investors being able to invest in certain types of investments which are considered "complex products," such as inverse and leveraged funds--and I'm opposed to such a proposal. Such funds offer opportunities to investors, especially small investors who are not wealthy, to survive turbulent markets--and to plan their investment strategy in a more flexible way. Such funds also save time in many ways and the restrictions you are considering would waste an enormous amount of investors' time, energy and money.

I strongly believe in the importance of all Americans to guide their own financial decisions, to pursue their investment goals without interference. I am many things: an attorney, a wife, an investor, a mom to be, a video game developer... But under these varied hats, a regular American. Investing in leveraged and inverse funds carries risks, but risk is how Americans built this country through the centuries. Please continue to let regular people manage their own finances and take calculated risks with their own money.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged like hedge fund institutions. I understand a financial risk with these funds and know the consequences of covering the losses. You should not be the judge of imposing conditional regulations on each individual investors.

More government regulations not needed!!

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST.

Stop being big brother. I am happy to take a test demonstrating my knowledge of the product and risks I am exposing myself to. We have no access to private equity and other investment vehicles that have performed in the past. Why cant you give us access to the same opportunities wealthier people have? Stop denying opportunities to make and lose money!

when i first heard that leveraged funds were no longer allowed to be created, i was angered by this overreach. at least those in existence would be grandfathered and i could still use them. to now learn that you are contemplating restricting my ability to use such exchange traded funds is insulting. even the cooling-off period. i bet it would have prevented me from making trades during the recent correction(s) in 2022--EXACTLY when i need to be able to react quickly to magnify the returns afforded by leveraged ETFs!

I am fully aware of the risks and dangers of leveraged funds. I value the freedom to chose the public investments that I deem correct. I use these funds sparingly to mitigate risk or to correct an obvious to me, imbalance. I am strongly opposed to government regulation of free participation in these investment vehicles which have a way of teaching harsh lessons to the foolish. And hedged great rewards to the prescient. Is it the governments job to protect people from their naiveté?

Hi, I oppose the SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15. I feel this rule would only serve to further divide the wealth gap that already exists in this counrtry, as it would make it more difficult for investors such as myself, with a lower net worth, to take advantage of leveraged funds in order to enhance capital gains.
