1. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. 2. Explain that you are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. Tell regulators you do not need these measures imposed on you. 3. As a small investor in a volatile market driven by big players investments need to be protected by leveraged hedging. 4. It attacks small investors ability to manage risk

Leveraged / Inverse ETFs are important tools for smaller investors to be able to easily hedge and take advantage of market opportunities and changing conditions. Denying investors this level of flexibility is a clear attack on the little guy. Smaller investors can use these tools to have immediate access to hedge trades which can protect a portfolio almost instantly without having to engage in complicated option strategies.

I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I am against SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15. I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for myself and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I use covered call options on inverse and leveraged funds to make money, regardless of the market direction. Yes, there are risks, but they are risks I understand and am willing to take. This is a small portion of my investment portfolio, and I should be able to use it as I wish without interference.

I am not a major investor but have some funds that I actively manage which I am hoping to use for my kids college fund. I need the flexibility to decide if I want to be long, short, leveraged or not on my positions. I am not a high new worth individual or professional investor but I understand the risks I take in going short on a position or having a leveraged position. Largely these positions are a hedge against other assets we have. I am not interested in further federal regulation or limitations on my decisions. Please do not move the SEC rule S7-24-15 ahead.

Markets need to be free and available for all. Adding disclaimers is fine but disallowing or restricting to trade is not a good sign of free market economy.

I have enjoyed in investing in leveraged and inverse funds. Some of them are necessities as hedging for tumultuous markets. This should be allowed freely for retail investors.

Do not restrict my financial dealings and investments.

As a relatively sophisticated inventor, well versed on the risks of investments, I see this rule does not benefit me - but restricts the way I can invest

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST. 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. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test. I am capable of understanding the investments considered and their risks.
