I should have the right to invest my money as I see fit . It's up to me to learn the pros and cons of different financial instruments . While I'm at it I am tired of calling hedge fund operators who tell me I must have a certain net worth and income to invest in their funds . If I have $20k to invest in these funds they should be more than happy to have me as a client . Thanks .
To all regulators.
I oppose restrictions
on my right to invest in public investments.
I'm aware of the risk and I fully take responsibility for my investments.
I know what I'm doing. Stop trying to keep me from making money. Let me invest in what I want.
this poses a severe and serious threat towards maket fairness. it's like locking us in home due to covid, but except the rich people and goverment people like you. retail traders or inverstors should have right to be freely choose whatever products and security that fit our trading strageties. Regulations should not be bias, only be supportative to rich people and people having authroitise.
Limiting leverage away from retail investors is not protective, it is a form of barrier to wealth and completely contrary to the spirit of capitalistic markets and the American Dream. You are not protecting, you and excluding and inhibiting freedom.

To Whom it Concerns,
I highly disagree with this proposed regulation and feel confident in my understanding of these instruments. They are behaving as I expected and I understand the risks involved. Please allow me to invest in what I would like to invest in.
Your threats to regulate and restrict my investment options is an insult to my intelligence and yet another slap in the face to the American value system and spirit of free enterprise and capitalism that has BUILT this country!!! I hedge to protect my investments and returns from volatility by using many of the products you are attempting to restrict...by doing so you will only succeed in
I think the extra checkbox necessary on Fidelity is sufficient for leveraged/inverse fund investments. If reading and agreeing to their disclaimer is insufficient to prevent "stupid", no amount of reading will be.
I dont think regulators should restrict what I choose to invest in. I can make these decisions on my own.
