The Top 1% is like a private club, and this "club" continues to find new ways to shut out the "little guy" because you don't want us getting in the way of you gobbling up all the wealth. Public investments should be available to everyone, not just the privileged. So when you start paying your share of taxes, then we can talk -- but until then, SHAME ON YOU!!
I strongly oppose any regulation limiting my choice in public or private investments. There should be no 'test' to invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of making my own financial decisions, and reject additional government interference regarding my finances. I implore you to not impose additional measures prohibiting my decision to invest
I strongly oppose the new regulations being considered by FINRA. As a private citizen I should not be restricted in how I choose to invest. I understand the risks I am taking in certain funds in which I choose to invest. I don't need regulators to "protect me" from myself. Leveraged and inverse funds are a measured and important part of my investment portfolio and I don't need
To Whom it May Concern,
I am totally opposed to the proposed regulations or any part of them that limit my ability as a small private investor to invest in Exchange Traded Funds. You are throwing away my primary ability to make money in the future. I do not understand your desire to regulate my ability to invest when there are many other investments that have equal or more risk. This is
Regulating my right to invest in public investments in any way is akin to the Jim Crow laws. My gains or losses in leveraged funds is not FINRA's concern. Brokerage houses do an excellent job at warning of the risks involved with investing as well as offering tools and educational resources. Private citizens, regardless of wealth or education, should NOT be impeded in ANY WAY from
On behalf of myself and private investors, the fact that a governing body would consider restricting investment choices to and from certain individuals is absurd and wholly un American. It is nobodys place but the investor themselves to determine what they put their money into and how they choose to invest. I, along with, I'm certain many other Americans firmly believe that it is not your
I am an adult of an intelligent age and like all things one is able to do when they are of age, choosing my own investments, employing strategies, and, fully understanding and accepting the risks of a diverse spectrum of offerings, I need the regulators to stay out of my private life.
Our governing bodies should look inward and address their own serious problems. Of the people, By the people,
As an experienced non-accredited investor, I am totally opposed to limiting my investment options. Some of my best investments this year are on the list: commodity funds, managed futures funds, private REITs, etc. While stocks and bonds have performed very poorly in 2022, these investments have hedged some of my portfolios and actually perform well in an inflationary environment.

Please do not proceed with SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15. I am a long standing private investor and have used leveraged funds to enhance returns on my investment portfolio. I have a good understanding of the risks involved in leveraged and inverse funds, how they can be used to hedge my portfolio or to provide leveraged returns on the underlying securities, and request that you do not restrict my
