I'm fully aware that leveraged ETFs are aggress. However, that is part of my investment strategy be agrees while young and become more conservative in investing as I get closer to retirement. Why should only elites on wall street be able to pick the best stocks/ETFs
The government has no business in deciding what investors can invest in. It is their money and should remain their right to invest as they see fit. No interference from the government is necessary.
I've been using leveraged ETFs as well as ETNs for years. Why should I suddenly be subject to restrictions on products that I understand the risks for.

To Whom it May Concern: I, not regulators, should be able to choose the investments that are right for myself.
