I Oppose restrictions to my right to invest. And I should have the right to invest in leveraged and inverse funds just like the big wall street firms, hedge funds, etc. I am fully capable of understanding the risks and do not need to be tested or have additional barriers placed in front of me to proof to a regulator that I know what is best for my portfolio. This is too much oversight and I don't wish for my tax dollars to be used for new regulation on this matter. thank you for hearing my opinions.

Retail investors understand the risks of leverage and have been using margin accounts for years. Please leave us alone.

Dear Sir/Madam, I oppose this regulation as it would limit my ability to trade the ETF which others could trade. It is a clear discrimination between mid level families and rich families. In a country like USA who always believed in the equality MUST not introduce such regulations. Thanks Koshal Garg [REDACTED]

I don't think regulators should make the determination what investments are appropriate for my needs. There should not be obstacles to investing in inverse or leveraged funds. I am comfortable with taking on that risk. Adding a regulator-approved test in order to be able to invest in these funds is an unnecessary intrusion on my right to invest as I see fit.

I (and other investors) should be able to invest in public securities however I want. And am capable of learning and understanding the securities, including their associates risks.

It's my money, not your decision!

It is obivous one must have specialized investment knowledge to even be aware of the existence of leveraged or inversed funds. And so, right at the start these proposed changes are meaningless. To even be aware of these funds existence, one would also be aware of the role these funds have in helping diversify risk, protect investments, and hedge other positions.

I am capable of making my own investment decisions. I have been using these inverse funds as a hedge since I was 18 with no issues.

I really like the ability to hedge my portfolio and even though i often lose it is reassuring to at least have the option it would be a real disappointment if it were taking away from me. in fact you want to talk about the ability to buy pre post market is wonderful regular options have liquidity issues that really hurt the little guy. I might just cash in and invest in other things if that security options of Pro shares are taken away from our accounts. thanks Martin Simpson

Investors should not be restricted on investment choices. The small investor should have the same investment choices as the large brokerage firms.
