Regulators should not have the right to impose any regulations on any American citizen that is investing their hard earned dollars into any stock of their choosing that they feel will benefit their future and the future of their family. The government benefits from capital gains taxes imposed on us already. To take away or regulate how we choose to use our money goes against our rights as an
I am absolutely apposed to the limitations on my investment. I should have the right to choose to invest whether in inverse stocks or not, instead of the regulators attempting to create a stronghold and strongarm to force citizens to do what they want.
We are in a free and democratic republic, and I refute the Marxist, communities agenda, and say NO to their attempt to give the rich more leverage
These types of funds are a very important part of my investment portfolio. While they do not make up the majority of my investments, they allow me to choose exactly how much equity risk I expose myself to. In addition, these funds are often safer long term investments than individual stocks. I implore you to maintain the American freedom to invest in the ways we think are best.
I am against regulating the leveraged and inverse ETFs.
My brokerage co. Fidelity make you read a statement and request that you are able to invest in what they term more aggressive investments. I appreciate the ability to be able to invest in leverage fund instead of having to do it through playing with margins (i.e. loans) and inverse without actually having to mess with shorting a stock.
This is not freedom. We do not need the FINRA restricting what securities people can buy or sell. We saw issues with Gamestop stock for example. The playing field should be level.

I do not support this regulation. I trade stocks for a living and these vehicles are vital to my ability to make a living. Regulations restricting leveraged and inverse funds are onerous and unnecessary. There are more than enough disclosures required by brokers that can inform the retail investor. These actions will only enrich an already highly-profitable financial industry through the forced

Investment is a personal choice. Investor has right to decide what is best for him/her. Every investor knows that stock market presents risks and rewards. Individual investor has right to choose investment vehicle available, based on his/her experience and risk tolerance. Government may be able to restrict risky investment for uneducated/inexperienced, even if suggested by an advisor or money
Leveraged index ETFs such as QLD and QID are an important part of my portfolio. Unlike regular stocks, one has to only track market level for buying and selling these funds and therefore do not need a lot of analysis before investing in them in order to achieve enhanced returns. I believe they should be freely available for trading to the investing public without unnecessary regulations. Thank
I have a finance degree and have been investing since college. I invest in stocks, mutual funds, options, and leveraged and inverse funds. I'm quite aware of the risks involved from my 25 years of investing experience. Putting restrictions and forcing investors like myself to take tests doesn't help me. What I choose to invest in should be my choice, not the government.
