I am fully capable of decision making and I should have the right and the freedom to choose my own investments leveraged, inverse, or non leveraged, or non inversed. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. Public investment instruments should be available to everyone, not just the privileged few. I do not need testing measures imposed on me. There should be no
Please stop trying to regulate everything! I know what I'm doing with regard to leveraged funds. If I didn't and invested in them, I would deserve to lose any funds I risked. The adage a fool and his money CANNOT be "regulated away" - BECAUSE, and idiot will always be an idiot, you can't fix stupid, etc. BUT, when you do impose regulations, you screw people who don't
I would like to ask that you not restrict investment in leveraged or inverse funds to a select few who meet certain standards.
The United States has opperated for a long time with a free market in which people are able to invest and engage in unrestricted legal activity that accrues to their own benefit or loss. Your goal as regulators should be to protect people from crime by others or from
I would request regulators to let people invest freely in inverse and leveraged funds. Leverage is important to amplify profits and it should be up to individual to make that choice. Maybe if you need to regulate we can ask brokerages to double confirm each time trade is placed
A democratic government should not second-guess the competency or plans of private citizens in their financial strategy. Are we going to be told how to dress and what we can eat next?

Inverse funds are a great option to hedge against other family assets and liabilities. We utilized ProShares UltraShort 7-10 Year Treasury to hedge against rising interest rates for debt that needs to be refinanced in the near future. This was a well thought out and planned strategy, that has worked perfectly. Once the debt is refinanced we would look to liquidate the ProShares UltraShort 7-10
Let the investors make their decisions on investments. Inverse funds provide protection against losses.
People understand products better than you think. Let those who want to take additional risk in funds choose to do so. You should not be regulating public access to such items. Individuals can choose to invest in their own business which is just as risky (if not much more) as these public funds. You aren't preventing that?? Let each individual choose their own level of investing or
