I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds
and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.
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. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. Leverage and inverse funds, including that they
I strongly disagree with regulations that limit my ability to access a variety of investment options as an individual investor. I should be able to choose investments that are right for me. Public investments should certainly be available to all of the public, not just the financially privileged. I also shouldn't have to go through any special process or test to invest in public
I am a retail investor that needs access to the same shares, instruments and leveraged techniques and hedges institutional and very well to do investors have. I understand and assume all risk with my capital. I use some of these instruments to seek higher returns in some cases or hedge against loss in other instances. As long as there is a prospectus and a warning on use and misuse of these tools
This proposed rule is a bad idea. Making any investments is inherently risky - even the "blue chip" stocks have periods when they don't do well. Some people have a higher tolerance for risky investments than others. If they are willing to take the risks involved in buying into an investment, and they have the wherewithal to afford it, they should not be limited.

I would suggest that if you are considering stiffer regulations on leveraged investments, you should take a look in other places where there is nothing but hot air underneath. Netflix, Rivian and hundreds more highly inflated stocks. The problem with that is given your belief that more government is better government would drive you there without that suggestion. These investments give the little
I am writing in response to the proposal to regulate the use of inverse ETFs and leveraged funds. I strongly oppose the federal government regulating which public investments I can and cannot invest in for myself and my family, as well as any additional regulatory processes required to make an investment of my choosing. There are already plenty of disclosures that address the potential risks and
I oppose the purchase restrictions. Trading of these types of leveraged funds should be available to all. As an alternative to the restrictions, a requirement could be to allow purchasing after receiving one training course on the risks of these funds. Under no circumstances should trading of these types of funds be limited to only those with a high net worth. An alternative could be a limit on
I am now retired and age 76 but worked most of my career investing as a fiduciary on behalf of pensions, foundations, and endowment founds. I now invest my own IRA via ETrade and have sometimes used leveraged ETFs to manage risk. For example, since I hold some longer term corporate bonds I recently used the TBT ProShares ultrashort Treasury bond to hedge against the rise in interest rates. Please
I recent got the citizenship. In the civic test I learn that the freedom is one of the core value of American. I should have the freedom of choose what public investments I want and take the risk I am willing to take. This should include the inverse funds.
