I have been an investor for many years now.
I have to say, I'm very upset with the FED and the way they have been manipulating the currency since the 08 market correction.
From that time on they destroyed the bond markets diversification capabilities to the stock market, because it now runs in conjunction with the market. At present my "Short" position is the only thing countering the market.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategy. They actually allow for a more conservative overall portfolio that matches full market performance.

Please do not limit the people's access to these financial instruments.

I was disturbed to hear of proposed regulations that could limit my access to leveraged and inverse funds. I have used these products successfully, and especially appreciate the availability of inverse funds for short-term hedging needs. I would prefer being able to do this in my stock market account rather than being forced to use futures. I'm a responsible adult, I take responsibility for my own actions, and I don't need your "help" regarding these products. Let them be, please.

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest

Please stop regulating educated investors and address issues to access like when you froze people well positioned out to protect large companies last year. Focus on equalizing the playing field, not limiting access to it.

Dear FINRA, As a 64 year old physician who has been investing in stocks since 1998, I feel that I am quite competent to assess the risks of my various investment choices. Aside from stocks, bonds, and similar 'paper' assets, I have investments in both real estate and collectables. As such, I feel very strongly that despite what undoubtedly are good intentions, FINRA should refrain from implementing regulations barring me from investing in so-called 'complex' investment vehicles such as leveraged funds and inverse funds.

I have been doing my own research and buying/selling investments for over 35 years and do not need or want the government involved in what I do. I am not impression in much of what the governments does now so would not trust them to handle my affairs and plan to continue to do my own investing in the future.

These ETFs are important tools for investing in the future. Now that the feds pump and dump scheme is now in the dump fees investors are going to be feeling a lot of pain for quite a while. Restricting access to leveraged ETFs is bad for investors. Anytime you limit choice, to protect the individual its bad because a lot of these are accounts are self-directed. I am asking you not to limit the use of leveraged ETFs.

Hello,
This regulation should treat everyone the same. These opportunities cant available only for high net worth investors. I am particularly interested in leverage and inverse funds and feel everyone should have this opportunity at these volatile times in the market.

It does not serve public interest nor protect investors to restrict inverse or leveraged ETFs. The cost and tax efficiency of these vehicles are some of the only ways the public can implement constructive hedging instruments akin to institutions. Even better: they are important liquidity providers and trade in the open marketplace vs. bilateral prime brokerage arrangements that unwind in a collateral way (i.e. Archegos). Taking this away would be a step backwards. Stop protecting the monopoly of primary broker-dealers.
