Leverage funds are part of my investment strategy on getting retired. I understand the risk I am taking using these products and I dont need to pass a test in order to own them. Thus far they have been the most successful part of my investing career. Please let us buy these instruments without the interference of the Govt.
We follow a very regimented investment plan that utilizes, in part, leveraged funds. It is providing an income stream for us now in our retirement.
We were vetted by our investment company (Fidelity Investments) in order to trade freely with leveraged funds. There should be no other restrictions placed on an individual's right to choose their method of investment.

Limiting LETFs to holding for one day, will greatly hinder my ability to save for retirement. I am a young investor with a long investment time horizon. Being forced out of LETFs would generate enormous capital gains that will financially ruin me. All I want is FINRA to do is to just make broker disclosures better.
Mr. Chairman, there is no doubt financial fraud aimed at older Americans is real. Results from a recent FINRA survey confirm this disturbing fact.
I was an advisor with a series 65. Some of my clients were knowledgeable some not. There is no doubt that FINRA has some good regulatory laws but guys this is a huge over reach. It is not your job to protect me against myself. This is play money not retirement money. Even if ten or twenty percent of my retirement money was in derivatives that is none of your business.

As a long-time investor who had diligently saved for his retirement, and who sought advice from professional financial planners, I would like to retain my right to continue using leveraged instruments in my portfolio. They help me achieve the desired allocation. I do not speculate or day trade and only use these instruments only for long-term goals.
