I am an engineer and has strong understanding of the characteristics and risks of L&I Funds, and that their purpose is for short-term active trading. I never invest in these funds for longer term. I can say there is nothing complex to understand how L&I funds work. America is a country of equal opportunities so equal trading rights should be given to retail investors as well as
I invest and trade to support my retirement. I rely on inverse ETFs to help boost my portfolio performance. I am in the market every day, so closely monitoring my holdings, and frequently use contingency trades to protect my downside. Please do not put any regulations in place that would interfere with how I am currently supporting my retirement.
I have traded these leveraged and inverse funds for many years. They should be available to all not select few. The test is just another unnecessary bureaucratic hurdle for people who can read and understand the risk. These funds are useful in short term trading as an overnight or 2-3 day vehicle that can be used with less leverage than a futures contract. Your consideration appreciated.
As an investor I think I fully capable of understanding how Levered and Inverse funds work. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. It is paternalistic to assume all retail investors are woo unsophisticated to trade ETFs such as these.

Greetings, I am a retail investor and generally choose my own picks. A very useful tool that I use for shorter timeframe trades are inverse and leveraged offerings. Provided your not stupid, I see no problem using these instruments. These trades are my choice.

I use levered funds such as TQQQ and Reverse levered funds such as SQQQ to trade for the purpose of supplementing my IRA savings, since I am long retired and I have two degrees in Electrical Engineering and 32 years experience in Research and Development of Geophysical tech. My broker displays the risks involved before I place a trade. Thank You very much.
You STUPID regulators need to stop telling us investors and traders which products we can trade or not. It's not your job to be the trading police! Keep your fingers off of the products that we use and STOP restricting them. Leveraged funds are a simple product that lets us traders leverage a simple index. It's that simple and not complex.
I would like to have equal transparency among all investors and eliminate dark pool trading and other off site trading venues that the majority of retail investors do not have access to. Fines for cheating are not enough. Liquidate institutions who fail to deliver!
