This is so wrong when you allow "the public" to buy a crypto. The risks are clearly laid out. The public is capable of understanding the risk of the leveraged funds... I DONT need regulators imposing what i can/cannot invest in

If we are to have a fair and free market it must be available to all, regardless of economic, socioeconomic and educated position. Such legislation to limit trade ability would affect individuals unequally, making market success available only to those already at an advantage. If our stance is truly a fair and free market, this legislation should not pass!

Good gracious, where did this proposed rule S7-24-15 come from. I am a prudent retain investor that uses inverse ETF's sparingly to reduce the risk from decline in long held positions. Inverse funds are important to my investing strategies.

Once again, I am here from the government and I am here to help you, is big government at its worst. The only people who will benefit from this proposed rule are the market makers and professional investors who already have an edge in the financial markets. Instead of wasting your time telling people you do not think they are as smart as you are, how about taking equal time to do something about insider trading by politicians, pump and dump schemes, and the other nefarious actions that are the real threat?

My money, my decision and my choice.

I want to be able to decide for myself whether a particular leveraged or inverse investment vehicle is appropriate for my investment strategy. Although I have a middle-income-level job, I do not feel that I should have to submit to some kind of FINRA-mandated means testing or other qualifying criteria to invest in leveraged or inverse investment products. .

I have used leveraged products as a means to capitalize on market conditions. Through research, education, and constant monitoring, I was very successful. I stayed in leveraged products I understood and that were well funs (TQQQ, for example). The smaller riskier leveraged products were not for me, but that was my decision. This is the same as trading options.

What you offer to one you must offer to all. Increase awareness, education, etc... but don't restrict based on who is person is or what money they have. See my comments below on your proposed changes:

Stop intruding on investor rights!
This is America and we believe in the right to participate in the markets! Back off!

There is really no good reason to ban inverse funds, period.

I am a retail investor, and have a small part of my IRA accounts that I manage myself, while placing the bulk of the funds into index funds and the like. However, I believe that I should have the right and access to all the same financial instruments that professional investors do for the portion that I manage myself. From time to time, I use leveraged and inverse funds.
