I oppose limitations on my investments. This is freedom country. I freely invest at my own risk.

We don't want you taking away our investment options.

Stop taking away our freedoms. Citizens should have a right to choose what they invest in. Entrepreneurship and small investment is the backbone of our country. Government regulation kills free markets and hurts average Americans.

I understand the concerns SEC has (https://www.sec.gov/investor/pubs/leveragedetfs-alert.htm), but I am not confused by these issues and I don't want restrictions preventing me from using these financial instruments.

I disagree with proposed rule. Leverage is a good thing. The issue is with over leverage. Everyone with proper literature and clear english text should be allowed to buy and sell security of their choice. Define which educated or a person who has passed a test shown skills in trading.

I should be able to invest in whatever public fund I want to without restriction. Restrictions like the one proposed protect a very small minority while harming most investors and free markets.

Regulators, I oppose restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. 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. 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.

This is idea is wholly without merit. It sounds more like a reason to help the big investor and hurt the retail/smaller players. We don't all have the time, skills, funds, or ability to learn how to work the derivatives game of puts and calls. These leveraged ETF products allow the small investor a chance to level the playing field. I am strongly opposed to this idea. If the SEC wants to get rid of all derivatives than this idea is open for discussion. No more lending out shares, no more puts, no more calls, etc.

Dear Regulators, I STRONGLY APPOSE the proposed restrictions for my individual use of Leveraged and Inverse funds. By taking away our individual ability to trade these funds, you are handcuffing the people who need this most in the name of protection. We don't need your protection! Let us be responsible for ourselves.

This should be my decision to invest as I choose!
