N/A
I have been investing for myself and my family for years and use leveraged and inverse funds as part of an overall portfolio strategy. These types of funds should be available to the general public without any additional onerous rules to use them. Hedging strategies are important to use in certain circumstances and they should not only be available to the privileged few. Regulators should be focused on things that affect more of the general public--such as making brokers have a fiduciary responsibility to their clients, or evaluating high credit card interest rates and student loan interest rates, or providing funding for financial education for everyone, not just the privililged.
