Leveraged and inverse funds are an important part of an investment strategy. They can help to reduce risk as well as boost returns when combined with a balanced, diversified portfolio. Like all investment vehicles, they can be used improperly, but this fact should not be used to restrict trading or especially to limit them to high-income investors. It is not fair to give accredited investors such a significant advantage over regular investors when it comes to hedging their positions.
