These fund should be available to everyone not just the privileged view. Regular investors are able to understand the risks of investing in leveraged funds.
Comments: I am so angry that I am beside myself! So let me get this straight. My Federal Government over stimulated the US Economy to buy votes with poor folks and is determined to double down with "Build Back Better" but they do not want me to say NO! or sell SHORT! In that they are wrong, and I could make a lot of money on their stupidity. Credentials: 1. Florida State University

I truly believe there is a place in ones portfolio for leveraged and inverse funds. In fact, if used correctly, the can minimize the risk in a portfolio. I've used inverse funds as a short term hedge during the Covid crash of 2021 and during the recent market correction. By investing 10-20% of my portfolio in these inverse funds, I was able to reduce volatility and manage risk
Comments: This is thievery. In a free market, everyone should be able to make and lose money however they want. I oppose any restrictions to what retail investors can do.

Sirs,
It is not clear what regulations you plan that would limit leveraged/inverse EFT and similar inventments.
