I am very distressed to learn that someone is considering to place restrictions and hurdles to overcome for my ability to trade inverse mutual funds. Following advice of my financial advisor and educating myself about the S + P 500 index/inverse index, I have been using the strategy for several years. I AM PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS. I know the risk and reward of using inverse funds. To my

Dear NASD Member:

I personally feel that options trading is far more complex and risky than the leveraged and inverse funds which I do have access to. The leveraged and inverse funds are comparably simple enough to understand and I try to utilize it in limitation to offset my other losses periodically. Hence I feel important to have access to these funds.
