This is dumb, if I want to invest in leveraged funds, I shouldn't have to be rich or pass a test. Stop looking for problems that don't exist. I can easily lose all my money buying individual stocks or options just as easy.
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me, not the government regulators and I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like inverse funds.
As an individual investor, I want to have the freedom to choose what investment types I want to use without having to pass any screening tests by regulators who suppose to control and limit my freedom including investment choices.
I'm not in favor of restrictions that punish intelligence and due diligence in order to protect ignorance. Making the system more fair with adequate enforcement against the bad actors that use detrimental activities to exploit and diminish shareholders equity would appear a much more effective approach to improving the systems performance. Naked short selling as an example.
