Stay [REDACTED] out of my pockets when the regulators are the biggest dishonest bunch [REDACTED]. If you are not regulated, why should I be?
This is ridiculous. Rather than take away the few tools (like inverse ETFs) that investors use to help protect themselves from unfair markets, perhaps it would be better to focus on fining those manipulating the markets for their own selfish gains. The way these markets are run, rigged against the little guy, is a disgrace.
To whom it may concern:
People nowadays have internet resources that are comparable to those of the Wall Street investors. I, for example, uses excel to calculate risk and rewards based on data collected from various brokerages/yahoo finance/bloomberg/LPLfinance...etc. A test imposed by regulators may have nothing to do with my excel calculations and probably remotely relevant to the success of
I officially oppose this regulation. We should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

Please do not take away or make it more difficult for people to use leveraged and inverse funds. I can understand why it may be good to provide people that have never used them with some education first. But, for people like myself that have years of experience using them they should be allowed to continue.
I strongly disagree with the addition of any new oversight related to leveraged and particularly inverse etf's. I use them to hedge/protect my family's assets particularly in periods of heightened volatility, which is becoming increasingly frequent as the machines/algorithms have taken over trading (an area that regulators don't appear to be overly concerned with).
As a long-time trader and investor, I have always believed that it is up to each individual to understand the instruments that he or she invests in. Leveraged and inverse ETFs are no different: they have some unique risks, but also unique rewards which make them particularly well-suited to short-term hedging and even speculating. The playing field is already tilted in favor of institutional
Dear FINRA,
I am having a difficult time understanding why you may want to regulate complex investments. Ive been a stock and ETF investors for years. A core part of my investment strategy is the use of Leveraged and Inverse ETFs.
I prefer these instruments over options as options 1) have expiration dates, 2) are manipulated with changing spreads based on volatility and lastly 3) are more
