this regulation would limit my ability to invest as i want. the time and energy i put in to investing should not be cancelled because my net worth isnt high enough or i dont work in the finance industry. anyone who puts their money at risk in these funds needs to be accountable to themselves for those decisions. please dont try to put arbitrary restrictions on these products.
I oppose limitations to block or restrict my investing activities. All stocks have risk and if measures are sought to restrict a certain commodity then i say stop the whole global market trading as well. This is a gross overreach of FINRA to assume this is in the best interest of the investor. Tsla, amzn, nflz, fb, etc are significantly riskier than a leveraed etf based on the broad market.
Leveraged ETFs have become a very important part of my portfolio and retirement plan. They provide cheap, accessible leverage for normal investors like me, and without them I would be unable to utilize leverage in my situation. I fully understand the risks and use them as part of a larger, unleveraged, diversified portfolio, and Im sure many others do the same.
Being able to invest in an inverse bond fund has allowed me to mitigate risk that I would be unable to achieve on my own. Without the freedom to invest a small part of my portfolio in an inverse bond fund I would have suffered significant losses, and I lack the bandwidth to buy and sell options directly. The 1% overhead cost of the fund is well worth it.
Hello. Although I do believe that certain investments are not for everybody, restricting publicly traded investments is not the right path. Fidelity Investments has a Designated Investor Agreement to have on record that I understand the risks associated with more complex etfs and investments.

Due to the daily nature of the leveraged and inverse investment strategies employed, there is no guarantee of long
Please don't restrict my ability to trade "complex productswhich could include the leveraged and inverse funds. My net worth is relatively low, but I am perfectly capable of reading pertinent documents and I fully understand what my risk are when trading. I have been trading leveraged and inverse funds for years and want to continue doing so.
I am an engineer and has strong understanding of the characteristics and risks of L&I Funds, and that their purpose is for short-term active trading. I never invest in these funds for longer term. I can say there is nothing complex to understand how L&I funds work. America is a country of equal opportunities so equal trading rights should be given to retail investors as well as
I am fully aware of the risks with Leveraged and Inverse ETFs. I have been using Leveraged and Inverse ETFs for years and restrictions will hurt my ability to secure my own finances. Inverses are extremely important in a downturn market and should be available to small investors like myself in order to hedge my own investments.
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST
I am an advanced investor, and understand the risks with my covered call option contracts. I also believe that many beginning investors need a base of index funds, particularly a low-cost target date fund.
If these were to be eliminated, this would seriously hamper our freedom to invest in what we want. Government oversight should be minimal, and to allow the invisible hand to be unhindered.
