Comments: I am an investor, an advisor, a father, a son, husband and business owner. I have used these leveraged products in small amounts and I feel there is a lot of warnings, disclaimers, etc on these already. If anything maybe make the warning bigger or more bold but don't limit the access of these. That would in my mind do the following 1-increase risk because it would limit volume and
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.
I do not want a third party evaluating my capability of managing these funds, and certainly do not want one
Leveraged , inverse, and other complex strategies are an important part of my investment profile. They allow me to be precise in the risk and asset class of my choosing compared to corporate equities which in fact encapsulated many more risks.
I do not believe regulators should interfere in the investment choices as those that want to invest in so-called complex instruments can easily read the
Dir Sir/Madam It is none of your business what investments are right for myself and my family. I am an adult capable of making my own decisions and living with the consequences of those decisions. Furthermore there should be no restrictions on the types of investments available to the general public. All investments available to the "privileged few" should be available to the general
As a retail investor and trader, I protest FINRA's consideration to either limit of remove the option of purchasing leveraged and inverse ETFs. This action limits opportunities for retail traders and investors to use these instruments for hedging purposes.

Dear FINRA, My opinion on FINRA's proposed limits is that may restrict my access to leveraged Funds or to disqualify me from trading Those types Funds or other "complex products". If you have a strong understanding of the characteristics and risks of leveraged funds, but I am not a professional. I do understand that their purpose is for short-term active trading, and that they
Hey, I get it. In today's litigious society everyone wants to blame someone else for their own poor decisions. That's just part of where the world is going. I own my own mistakes and because of that I feel that I should be able to make my own decisions. I own small amounts of a few levered funds because it's fun. It adds a little excitement to an otherwise very conservative
Leveraged funds are important for young small time investors like myself to be able to have access to similar financial vehicles that large investors and institutions are able to use. I use the LETF's to be able to construct a balanced 60/40 portfolio that provides a higher risk-adjusted return than a stand alone index fund would be able to. Imo, there are many stocks that bare much
I was unaware until recently that you [REDACTED] might be hatching another scheme to interfere with my ability to hedge risk and/or speculate in the financial markets. Even to the regulatory mind it should be obvious that investors either find these products useful or they avoid them, a principle that applies to all the ETFs and ETNs in the marketplace. Your franchise doesn't empower you to
I have been using leveraged EFT's for many years and that is a major source of my yearly income. I'm well aware of the risks and I'm willing to take those risks. I've educated myself over the years in most aspects of the stock markets and use options extensively. Most financial advisors know little about using these investment techniques and are afraid to
