I have used leveraged ETF's and their associated options for nearly 15 years to improve the life of myself and my family. Please do not limit my use of these products to achieve financial goals - my family is depending on them.
I am very able to choose what I invest in. I don't need Regulators to babysit my finances for me. I shouldn't need to pass any "test" to exercise my Right to Pursue Happiness. Get the Federal Government's nose out of my business.

You think that's less difficult than buying an inverse fund? Inverse ETFs are extremely important to my own trading, and have saved me more than
I should be able to make my own public investments. I am fully aware of the risks associated with leveraged and inverse funds.
I am most disappointed with the suggestion that FINRA is considering restricting or eliminating the ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. If we common-folks cannot utilize these investment tools then you must be sure that this applies to EVERYBODY including Wall Street insiders. Otherwise, let everybody have unfettered access to these investment instruments.
