Thanks for taking the time to read this. I am against further restrictions against smaller investors. I should not have to take any additional classes or have any special authorization to invest in leveraged or inverse funds. I understand that these are higher risk investments and I believe that I have the same right to trade them as any large corporate investor. I shouldn't have to
I should be able to choose my public investments that are right for me. I only use a small portion of leveraged funds as a way to balance my larger holdings with less funding by making very simple hedges. These leveraged funds make it far less complicated and less risky than trading in individual options. Please, I don't need more oversight, complications, and regulation when the
I prefer making my own investment decisions versus regulators who can manage their own assets BUT need to learn to leave my decisions up to me. Unless they are actively trading their own assets and clients' retail assets, I find their wanting to rule on these matters self-serving, ignorant to peoples' rights to educate, learn and wisely choose and highly unreliable to ethical
The adoption of limiting my ability to trade leveraged ETF's such as provided by Proshares will drive me to find a brokerage that does not belong to FIRNA. Alternatively it will result in my removal of all funds from FIRNA regulated brokerages. I can't say with enough weight this effort to limit my investing options to increase the brokerage profit has severely degraded my
I oppose limits and restrictions in my trading of leveraged and inverse securities. I am well aware of the risks associated with such products. Although they make up a small portion of my overall portfolio, I appreciate the diversity of products offered and the ability to hedge securities.

Limiting public investment avenues is both discriminatory and oppressive. American citizens and their families should have direct access to investment protocols by their own decision without discriminatory blocks to access. We do know the value and risk involved with investments such as BITO and other exchange traded commodities, cryptocurrencies and funds and the value that they have in a
I am against any more restrictions to my ability to trade leveraged securities. I have been fully informed of the risks involved by my broker Fidelity in these products and had to sign and submit a document stating so to Fidelity. I am fully capable of making informed decisions on my own without any further government or regulatory restrictions such as passing a written test or proving my net
My name is Ivan Zubkiv. I'm very dissappointed that the regulators are trying to eliminate my rights to chose hove I should invest and what investment I have to choose. I want to be free and have a rights to chose my self to trade what I want and in what to invest. I want to be treated as the same as every reach person or company, have the same rights and be able avoid annessesary measures
To Regulators, I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds because I have more than 40 years of stock and options trading experience in USA. I am capable of understanding those funds and their risks more than any finance professionals. It is totally against the spirit of law under democratic
To whom it may concern, I strongly oppose any potential restrictions on my ability to purchase leveraged instruments. This would be another way for the large institutions to use investment vehicles for their advantage at the expense of the smaller investor like me and put us on unequal playing ground. I do not use them as a large part of my portfolio, but use them for hedging or taking advantage
