I oppose any new regulation to my personal investment. I should be able to choose my own investments. I should not have to go through special process or test to invest in ANY securities including leveraged funds.
ProShares has contacted me about you wanting to increase your regulation of investments. I agree with them and not with you. I dont want you telling me what I cant invest in or requiring me to pass a test to qualify.

I have been a long investor in leveraged etf for 3+ years. I dont want to be required to pass tests to continue investing in it. And if people put money into it they should be prepared to lose it whether its leveraged etf or stock as I have.
I am writing this to let it be known that I should be in charge of my retirement investments not the federal government. I have enough knowledge to make these decisions and dont need to pass a test. Inverse and leveraged funds are important to my investment strategy.
I disagree because I have the full rights to invest my own money into any assets I desire, and all investors should be aware of the risk as they invest. Tests should not be required as investors should be and are aware of what we are investing into
I dont feel I or anyone should have to take a test in order to invest in any funds or etf. Im of sound mind and judgement and am very aware of the downsides of inverse and 2x investments. I oppose regulating my investments.
I should not have to go through any special like passing a test before I can invest leveraged and invest funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I dont need these measures impose on me.
