I understand the concern over novice investors utilizing securities they no little or nothing about. The same could be said for novice equity investors - do they understand the companies they are buying? I oppose any further regulation on my right to invest in public investments. Leveraged ETFs are an important tool to use in hedging equity portfolios and for those of us managing retirement funds with little ability to hedge or short common stocks, they are a critical tool.

The entire investment universe should be made available to anyone accepting the risk

Please do not stop our freedom to invest. You would NOT LIKE your investments messed with

Hello, Hope you have nice day. I am writing you this time to make my voice be heard, I OPPOSE THE NEW RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST!!!! I believe that I should be able to choose the public investments, that I believe are right for me.Public investments should be available to ALL OF THE public, not just the privileged!! I am very much capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks, I do not need these measures imposed on you.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST It is important to note that, I not regulators 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.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to your investment strategies. Consider explaining ways you use leverage and inverse funds, including that they help you protect (hedge) your investments or seek enhanced returns, and if you use them as a limited part of your overall portfolio.

Dear Sirs, I have read your proposed regulations related to "complex" investments, and I would like to voice my opinion. I am somewhat surprised that regulators are focused on the investors themselves rather than on the fundamental function of regulating the markets through conditions imposed on funds and traded securities. I would definitely approve and happily participate in any survey your initiate in the pursuit of your regulatory authority for the purpose of assessing investor know-how.

I want to express my disagreement with the restrictions that are to be imposed in order not to operate certain assets as is currently being done.

Restricting my ability to used leveraged and inverse funds would reduce my ability to generate taxable income. I love that I can support government programs through taxable income earned in leveraged and inverse funds.

I am writing to comment against passage of proposed rule #S7-24-15. As a retiree the use of inverse and leveraged funds are important vehicles for managing risk to my retirement. They provide diversification that is not available in any other products. I do not need to be protected from using these products. Indeed if these products had not been available to me my retirement portfolio would be much smaller.
