Please do not limit the ability of the retail investor to invest in the funds of their choice. There are disclaimers and education that allow the retail investor to be educated on the risk they are taking.
Equal access to the market should be given to individual investors and institutions. I know my risk, and if I lose I won't get a bailout like them.
As an investor, I should have the ability to make my own choices on investing after evaluating the risks. This isn't something that should be limited by regulators.
My money is mine to invest as I like. I do not need someone looking over my shoulder. I know the risks of leveraged and inverse funds.
The use of inverse accounts is one of only a few ways to hedge a personal portfolio without taking even more risk like options.
Comments: I am fully aware of the risks associated with leveraged funds ETF and I do not like FINRA to restrict or limit my access in this regard.
My goal is to diversify my portfolio. Investing in the cryptocurrency arena is another strategy in which I can balance my portfolio, with the understanding of the potential risks.
These funds like all ETF, Stocks and options come with risk and potential loss of capital. These ETFs should be allowed to trade at the traders discretion.
Please do not impose unnecessary regulations on leveraged and inverse funds. This is supposed to be a free market so let investors take their own risks!
I understand the risks of leveraged investment instruments. Requiring high net worth or other regulations would not safeguard investors, but discriminate against them.
