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. I shouldn't have to go through any special process, like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me! Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. Leverage and inverse funds help me hedge my investments.

This is insane. If I want to take on a large risk profile who are you tell me what to invest and not invest into. This is borderline communism not letting me pick and choose where to place my money in a free and open market

While politicians get rich off the market and their insider trading this is not the time to restrict us American citizens from being able to work with leveraged and inverse funds. I am a big boy and should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.

I am quite capable of making my own decisions thank you very much. If I want to invest MY money in staid and safe vehicles I will, if I want to take a bit more risk, that is MY choice.

I use leveraged funds to protect my money. For example, by using a 3x leveraged fund, I can invest 333 rather that 1000 if the fund wasn't leveraged. If I invest 1000, and it goes down 50%, I only have 500 in my account. If I lose all the amount in my leveraged fund, I still have 667 that was never invested which is more than if a non-leveraged fund goes down 50%.

I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Why put restrictions on me? I am not a market manipulator with my small investments of a few thousand dollars. If any regulation is need it is the vary large investors who can swing the market left or right. I need to protect my retirement portfolio to ensure I do not become a burden on my children or on the government.

I oppose any restrictions on what I can invest in specifically but not limited to inverse funds

Leveraged and inverse funds are critical to portfolio management, including the capacity to enhance and hedge returns. I regard efforts to limit investment in these funds as highly invasive of personal freedom and choice.

I believe public investments should be made available to the public, and not beheld to arbitrary regulations. This country operates on the principles of life, liberty, and the _pursuit_ of happiness. As such it should be the responsibility of the citizen to gauge the risk of their own assets, not a government imposition to prevent us from trying. As an investor, I am capable of gauging the risk of various instruments to my portfolio, and it is my funds that are being invested.

Accredited investors shouldnt lose rights.
