The very fabric of America's growth and wealth (much of the wealth is given to almost the whole world) has been based on the ability of the average American Citizen to exercise his/her right to decide what is proper and acceptable for them to do, barring illegal acts under our Constitution and State Laws. The idea that we need someone (a regulator) to oversee our investment choices (

I have been successfully investing in leveraged ETFs for over 10 years now. I currently hold a significant position in TQQQ with unrealized capital gains that I can't afford to pay taxes on until after I retire. I need the liquidity of of an active options market on this leveraged ETF to be able to sell options against my position in times of excess volatility. I cannot afford to change

To whom it may concern, I have used leveraged and inverse funds within the past two years in time of high volatility to hedge against my portfolio. If the instruments are taken away from us, and allowed for use for only to special personnel then my right to choose my investments is essentially taken away. I understand that there are risks involved with the use of leveraged and inverse funds,
I have been investing for a while and run a systematic program of investing. Leveraged ETFs are very important to me and to my investing approach. I understand the risks and realize that there is a higher risk to any investment that involves leverage and this one is no different.
