Investors should not be vented with personal investment decisions. The prospectus outlines all extra risks and no one should be tested or censored by anyone if a decision to invest personally. I have a right to do what I want with my own money. Regulators should not harass investors with rules about purchases in leverage/geared investments and pay more attention to crypto?
Each individual investor should be able to decide which investment suits his/her needs. There are usually articles from the brokerage firms and online. All investments have their own risk. The best of stocks can have a down side. The investing community does not need the Government or any of its bodies overlooking each individual's investments.
I strongly oppose restrictions of investors to be limited to leveraged and inverse funds, as these type of investments permit investors to property balance, diversify and limit risk to their portfolio in all types bear and bull markets by sector.

This proposed rule is very concerning. I do not support this New Rule!

I have used leveraged and inverse funds primarily from Rydex (Guggenheim) and ProShares in my investing for more than 20 years. I understand and have experienced the risks and benefits of such funds. I especially do not want to be denied these tools after all these years; and even when younger and less experienced, I was fully qualified to make my own investing decisions.
This regulation is classist and assumes anyone not in possession of wealth is too stupid to understand these investments. Limiting specific investments to only high net worth individuals will only exacerbate the wealth inequality in our country and is the antithesis of what America stands for. Anyone can learn to understand all of these investments and should be able to determine for themselves
I am a long time investor. I make my own investment decisions and read materials provided before I make an investment. I do not want to be blocked from from complex investments and I oppose any limitations.
