Leveraged and Inverse funds allow investors who are not wealthy enough to participate in hedge funds to manage their portfolio risks. By removing or limiting access to these funds FINRA would hurt us common investors and once again cater to the richest people and large institutions under the charade of protecting the common investor. All that is required is that a warning be provided every time
Writing this to let you know that I oppose the restrictions being considered to leveraged and inverse funds.
I like having these funds available to help with risk mitigation of my stock portfolio and to take measured exposure to offset growing inflation costs.
I am familiar with the inherent risks of using these funds and don't want to be forced to take a test to continue to use them
I am an individual trader that uses leveraged and inverse funds to help finance my retirement. I have used these funds since I retired some 4-1/2 years ago. I understand the risks of these funds as it is stated directly on the trading platform that I use, TD Ameritrade. I do not believe that over-regulating these funds that assist individual traders in building wealth to be the correct approach
Please do not restrict my ability to invest in the funds of my choice.

Leveraged funds are an important part of my investment strategy when seeking enhanced
I wish to continue to have the freedom and flexibility to invest my money as I see fit. Disclosures are already provided on the risks of levered investment products and our education system thankfully teaches every American how to read.

I have been investing in TQQQ, a Proshares investment tool for over a year and have made a lot of money with it. It has an element of risk to it. I understand the core of how it is invested. I know that it is designed for profits on a daily basis. I am not a day trader but the platform clearly follows a pattern of the NASDAQ, and is predictable.

My experience over the last several years has demonstrated the value in modest and moderate usage of leveraged ETFs for ordinary investors such as myself. Fully aware of the risks, I have made significant gains which would not have been possible otherwise. Requiring these additional steps would cut off all but the wealthy from the benefits of these assets, forcing investment in instruments which
