I have been investing for 48 years for my own account and am fully capable of understanding leveraged and inverse investment strategies and think that they are an important tool that I occasionally use and have used in my investment career. I do not believe that a person should be required to go through any special processing or testing before you are allowed to invest in these type of
I understand the risks of investing in leverage and inverse funds. Regulation has a place to protect investors, but measures like this would put individual investors like myself at a disadvantage. During the financial crisis of 2007-2008 I invested in long leveraged index funds and it has been one of my most successful investment decisions to date. I can say that my financial situation and
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Leveraged investments should be available to all the public not just the privileged. People understand the risks of investing in these ETFs.

I use leveraged and inverse funds to hedge current investments I have. So I use TBT to hedge my bond exposure in my 401k. I'm an investment professional and want access to these funds in my personal accounts. Thank you for your consideration.

No one needs this to be regulated.. some people would prefer not to use inverse funds rather than options.
Your job is not to protect us from these vehicles. I use inverse etfs and have for the last 15 years. They are a productive tool.
