I want to invest freely, proshares Inverse ETF is important in my portfolio

As an amateur investor, I find leveraged and inverse funds to be a huge help in complementing my investments and hedging against falling markets. I am WELL aware of the risks associated with leveraged and inverse funds, as my broker often posts warning statements on the trade screens when I buy these funds. Leveraged and especially inverse funds offer me an "all in one" product that otherwise I would have to spend time short selling and tracking prices to match the tracking index.

Individuals should be able choose which type of investments are right for them, not regulators. There is ENOUGH regulation, required disclosures, etc. and we need less not more.

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest

This is nonsense. Regulators should not chose what risk and investment I as an individual take.

I do not feel that I should be restricted or hampered from investing in these types of funds just because someone (who doesn't even know me) feels I'm not capable of undrestanding the risks. I also feel that I should not have to go through any process that will make it more difficult for me to continue to invest in these types of funds. As such, I strongly oppose restrictions to my investment rights.

Do not put additional regulations on levered sticks & ETF

I am totally opposed to restrictions on purchases of leveraged funds as well as shorting. Stock holders should have the ability to choose what they wish to purchase. This should not be left us to regulators. Public investments should be available to all of the public, NOT just the privileged. Leveraged and inverse funds are important and should be a part of my investment strategies.

Lets not over regulate items like funds for individuals, especially when multibillion dollar hedge funds are allowed to do much, much more.

Everyone should the right to invest!
