I oppose restrictions to the right to invest.
People – not regulators – should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Otherwise it is unfair to retail investors.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. For example, SH, the inverse fund of
Leveraged and inverse funds allow me to hedge my portfolio and generate enhanced returns using derivatives. You don't need to be a rocket scientist to understand the concept of these funds and everyone should have access to them. Retail investors are capable of doing their own research and coming to a conclusion on whether or not these fit their risk tolerance and strategy without having
its my duty as an investor to understand the risk and rewards. Why does someone with more net assets have to have more knowledge then me, sure your saying that becuase they have more assets they can diversify more but they can make the same mistakes as anyone else. I shouldnt have to pass a test to buy a stock, if I dont do enough accurate erase arch it should be on my just like any other stock
Dear FINRA,
I respectfully ask you to please refrain from enacting any additional regulations on this type of funds. A statement that notifies the buyer of the risk already has to be signed!

The hedges would be difficult if not impossible to accomplish without access to existing leveraged or inverse funds. We, the investing public are not stupid and can judge the risks associated with these products. Regulators give the public

As an American I earn my money and am educated enough to make my own investments. Why should someone who is rich already be allowed to make investments while I can't? You claim it's because they're financially savvy, but I disagree. How many millionaires have gone through bankruptcy and how many are very uneducated? The answer is a lot.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
I also should not have to take a test or go through ay other special process as I have a very good financial advisor who makes sure I understand my investments and any risks involved. I don't need these measures imposed on me.

In light of the new proposed regulation that ProShares has made me aware of I thought I should make my feelings known. There are many complex investment opportunities, and it is incumbent on the investor to educate himself on the risks. The government should protect us from fraud but not from ourselves.
