Chris Stone,
Comments: A leveraged ETF provides an investor to multiply capital short term without the use of margin. I agree it is not for every investor or everyday use. But removing the option limits participation which is wrong.
As an individual trying to save for retirement outside of my standard 401k, leveraged products allow me to form a more capital efficient portfolio. I believe more education is the answer, not removing tools.
I understand the risk of leveraged ETF/products and use them carefully. They help me get bigger returns with less capital. I should be able to choose what I invest in without having to pass tests.
Furthering the divide between groups of citizens that are allowed to participate in capital markets and those who aren't will ultimately destroy the markets as it's slowly ripped apart. This is not the way to protect retail investors.
