To FINRA Regulators,
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies, especially during periods like right now where the stock market is going down most of the time or theres much turmoil. I understand that leveraged and inverse funds and their risks but I have been trading them for months. Everything is fine.

These regulations would not only be an unnecessary restriction on the free market, but they would give an even more marked advantage to those who are already wealthy, by allowing them exclusive trading options that are not allowed to the vast majority of the rest of us.

I am an experienced high net worth investor who utilizes an inverse leveraged long term bond fund as a small portion of my portfolio to offset losses with some gains as interest rates rise.
