Without these inverse and leveraged ETFs, you will be
Who are you to say what is too "complex" for the average person to trade? Why take away a legitimate tool to help us hedge down turns with inverse funds or make up for losses with leveraged funds? Brokers already require we read documents and know the risks associated.
