I am opposed to FINRA interfering with my right to invest in funds such as BITO. I am opposed having to get special approval from my broker to invest in any security they are licensed to trade, I am opposed to having to attest to having read an materials. I am opposed to being required to go through and cooling off period, l am opposed to being required to taking a test imposed by a regulated of my ability to understand an investment or acknowledgement of the risks involved.

I oppose FINRA limiting my ability to invest in whatever ETFs I want. I realize the potential losses I may incur, as well as understanding that I may gain from these investments as well. I feel like this is a bit of control by the government. It is my money to risk. I should not be denied the access to these investments.

I understand the risks and rewards of leveraged funds, and have used them to my advantage. However, I understand they can be dangerous in the hands of the uneducated. I believe some type of mild screening process would be useful, i.e., specialized reading materials and a test targeted at leveraged funds only, without other more heavy handed restrictions. The individual, once educated, has a right to make their own decisions. However, the same dangers could also be said of other instruments, i.e., options or penny stocks. Overregulation is always possible.

I have been using leveraged and inverse funds for a number of years to my great advantage. I would be deeply dismayed to lose access or be obstructed in their use. For what purpose - to "protect" me from engaging in a successful enterprise? To protect the public at large from "shooting themselves in the foot" or running any type of risk has never worked and never will. We have already lost enough of our freedom. Please don't do this.

My investment. My funds ..

Why do you all got to tax everything let ppl atleast try to get ahead n live off something all your doing is making more n more ppl hate the government you dont help for jack n thats facts while you get richer n help other countries we have homeless ppl n ppl barely scraping by this wouldve aloud we the ppl a chance to prevent that siince you the government are doing nothing about it

What you propose is too broad and intrusive for a free market. These instruments have important legitimate uses. One can't completely eliminate risk from risk assets. There must be some role for personal responsibility. Rather focus on education, and perhaps limits for those who are over-leveraged on margin. Apart from that, taking occasional losses is how we learn to become better investors.

Dont take away what we have now! Why would you do that? Just because you think you can. Well, DONT!

I should be able to the invest in all public investments. It's the right of all investors voices to be heard. Do not put restrictions on me and other investors. I oppose these limitations.

I've been an individual investor since 1999, and this new rule called "Reproposal of Amendments to Rule 15c2-11", if that is the reproposal in question? Well it's blatantly discriminatory since it requires a certain net worth in order to quality for equal access to all investment options. That's also known as income discrimination. As such, I strongly disagree with this proposal.
