I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. If you want retail investors to continue investing through the rough markets, we need access to public securities like leveraged and inverse funds, which allow us to make bets against the market without the risks that come
To FINRA Regulators,
Please do not infringe upon my right to invest my money as I see fit. Any benefits or losses from my investments into any inverse funds such as the ProShares Trust Ultra VIX Short Term Futures (UVXY), should be solely my responsibility.

the leveraged funds, both long and short the underlying, are important tools in portfolio construction. The open and free markets and skill sets should determine the winners and losers, not selected regulations.

NASD would like to remind members of their obligation to file the appropriate FOCUS reports, Schedule I filings, Annual Audits, Customer Complaints and Short Interest reports by their due dates.
FULL TRANSPARENCY/ NO MORE LOOPHOLES Investors demand an end to the systemic corruption and crime that is plaguing our markets through un-regulated short selling that siphons real value from companies and investors and PREVENTS proper price discovery.

Hedge funds have way more tools at their disposal than retail investors. They use these extra tools to manipulate the market and hide all the shady activity they do. THEY NEED TO GO TO JAIL FOR ROBBING AMERICAN PEOPLE. They are going to cause another market crash, short [REDACTED] out of everything, and make billions of dollars while Americans are suffering. Burn them down.
Dear Sir or Madam,
Leveraged and inverse funds have a place in the equity market. Mostly used short term they can be an effective method of investing in certain types of markets. Although they are higher risk, long term they have proven to have an excellent
