I should have the right to and freedom to invest in any funds. I'm an adult that can choose my own risks and rewards and shouldn't be limited to such. I find this proposed rule a corrupt fraudulent act.

It's so important to survive these difficult times to have a place to run I only have $90,000 If you want to regulate the big boys fine but please leave the little investors free. Thanking you in advance Norm

Leveraged ETFs and inverse ETFs give individual investors reliable tools with which to hedge against market downturns. The leverage on the short side for inverse ETFs allows them to hold a smaller position against existing longer-term holdings as a hedge in the same manner that professionals use futures to achieve the same goal. On the long side, they allow investors to participate in market upside, e.g., bull markets, in a manner that avoid headline risk with individual stocks.

Please dont take away choices from me. I believe inverse trading will be profitable. I know you dont care about me. You only care about lobbying money and big banks. Not surprising.

As an independent investor, I find this potential regulation to be insulting and diminishing. Americans have a right to invest in securities and other financial products as they deem fit. Please do not take this harmful action against our freedoms.

Though reasonably well intended, new regulations that make it more difficult for retail investors to access sophisticated investing tools are the opposite of what free market investing should look like. In a time where equal access is of upmost importance, these proposed rules further the perception of inequality that is already a dark cloud in the mind of many Americans who avoid investing for the future.

Greetings, I am a retail investor and generally choose my own picks. A very useful tool that I use for shorter timeframe trades are inverse and leveraged offerings. Provided your not stupid, I see no problem using these instruments. These trades are my choice. Please don't try to protect me from myself and assuming that I'm too dumb to participate in these offerings.

let us invest and trade, some of us are following newsletters for years. we don't want to now be limited. these investments let us put on a hedge and stay long. don't make us take some test, it is too limiting. free country to learn and invest and we want different ways to balance everything out

Please do not place restrictions on leveraged and inverse ETF's. These funds are an important tool to hedge against market pullbacks, and have been successful for years.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST! 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 - nor does anyone else.
