I object to the efforts of FINRA to limit my ability to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. Most of our monthly income comes from leveraged funds, CEFs, BDCs, MLPs, etc. I should not have to go through any special process like passing a test to be able to invest in the manner I want to. It is my money, I should be able to invest how I want.
It is completely wrong for the government to prevent individual Americans to not be able to purchase leveraged and inverse funds. Nor should investors be required to pass tests before they can make such purchases.
It is truly none of the federal governments business how I buy my shares and what I buy.
Please desist from this terribly mistaken path you are on and drop they idea. Thank you!
I, not regulators, should be free to determine what public investment are suitable for myself and my family.
I'm fully capable of understanding the risks inherent in leveraged and inverse public securities products without passing a test from regulators.
Products such as these are quite useful for me to partially hedge and enhance my investment returns and should be available to
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

It is ridiculous to require testing or a special process to purchase inverse funds. Investors require hedging mechanisms. With my exposure to bonds, I require some protection against rising rates, inverse treasury funds help provide that protection. We don't need a nanny, but we do need good sources of information to help us make the best investment decisions.
It is well within my rights to be able to determine the risk I'm willing to entertain with MY money.
I use leveraged/inverse ETFs to hedge my portfolio. I don't need to partake in any special process or pass any tests to do so, and I don't appreciate the nanny state trying to limit my access to ANY investment, wise or not.
Educate, yes.. Limit, No..

Individual investors should have the same access to all kinds of securities including leveraged and inverse funds as institution investors in a free market. I understand how leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I am fully capable of managing my own money and making my own investment decisions. I do not want and need to take a test to approve myself to anyone.
I have my rights to choose what investment I want to make, whether I have $10 or $10 millions dollars to spare. It should be available to all, not just the privileged. I understand the leveraged and inverse funds and their risks because I do research on them before making the investment. I don't want to take and pass a test to invest in anything. My money, my problem!
