All investments are risky. But everyone should be able to invest their money how they like without having to pass a test or be among the wealthy elite. Let people make up their own minds about whether to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. The option should be available to everyone not just a select few. I have invested in a leveraged fund and it is but one portion of my small portfolio. We'll see if in the long run it turns out to be a mistake, but if it is, it will be my mistake and hopefully I'll learn from it. But again, any investment may turn out to be a mistake.

Leveraged funds are as much a part of the market as any other funds and to restrict trading from the public really is a slam on independent investors.
We should have access to the entire market, even more after hours where professionals trade and we do not have access.
Fait trading should really be fair trading. Currently it is not.
Leave leveraged funds alone.

I am very concerned that you are considering placing more restrictions on my ability to invest as I see fit. A perfect example is with the bear market we are now in, without inverse ETFs available, I would have no choice but to sit in cash. The deck is already stacked too much against the small investor. I understand the risks of leverage ETFs, but I have used them, and I consider them a useful strategy.

In a free society I have a right to invest where I please. Thank you.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST!

These proposed regulations are absolutely ridiculous. They are obviously just an attack by an overzealously authoritarian government to make investing harder for American citizens. We are perfectly capable of figuring things out on our own [REDACTED]. We want to be treated like the free American citizens that we are supposed to be.

First, I just received the pamphlet in the mail dated 5/11/22 and said that the deadline was 5/9/22...glad I didn't miss the deadline.
Second, Please FINRA don't impose more government regulation for owning PROSHARES TRUST II (SLV) shares. There is enough government regulation the way it is.

Excessive regulation is a drag on the economy. Individuals should be responsible for evaluating risks, and be able to make their own choices.

Hello, I am an experienced trader and actively utilize leverage ETF's and I am requesting to allow the public continue to utilize these investment strategies. I have gone through training for stock trading and ETF's.

If you want to educate the public add investing to the US education system for high schoolers. They should be receiving education to manage their money and investments before they begin working.
