I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investment suitable for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I should not have to go through any special process like passing a test before investing. This is no different from a poll literacy tax. We are intelligent enough to know and understand the risk of any investment.
Limiting what I can invest in should be my right and not something only the privileged have access to. Stop limiting the abilities of retail investors to invest how they think is right for them and their families. I am capable of understanding the risks associated with cryptocurrency funds. These are valuable tools that you want to take away from me while you allow the ultra-wealthy to take
Your mission is to protect the investor from scams in the industry, not to influence their investment decisions either directly or indirectly in ANY WAY, no matter how well-intentioned it may appear. We 'retail investors' are perfectly capable of understanding the basics of how a leveraged ETF works and how much risk it carries. Any further regulation on them would severely affect the
I oppose FINRA's proposed rule #22-08. My ability to invest the finances of my family should not be left up to the discretion of government or regulators. The ability to invest in public securities should not be withheld from the general public not should we be required to pass a test to invest our own finances. We take a known, and sometimes unknown, risk when we invest our finances
Comments: Please do not modify rules related to leveraged ETFs. I personally understand the risks of leveraged ETFs, but at the same time the value. I use leveraged ETFs to enhance my portfolio returns. I also recognize that these products may result in larger than average swings in valuation.

I want to be able to choose what investments are right for me. I want these funds to be available to me to choose from. I'm capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. These funds are an important part of my investment strategy. They help me protect my investments some times and some times give me better returns and use these as certain part of my investment mix. I
You are not regulators. I should be able to chose my own style of investment. It should be available to all of the public. I should not have to go through any examination or testing before I can invest into public securities. I understand leverage and invest funds and their risks. Leveraged and inverse funds are extremely important for my investment strategy. These securities help me to protect
I believe that I - and not regulators with potential agendas should have the right to choose the public investments right for me -- and these shouldn't be restricted to just the privileged. I shouldn't need to go through any special process or testing before I can invest in public securities (such as leveraged and inverse funds) since I'm quite capable of understanding the risks
If retail investors are not allowed to buy leveraged ETF's, then the same should apply to institutional investors. The playing field is so distorted to favor wall street firms, bankers, and institutional investors, that it is a gamling casino not an Investment arena, and the problems caused by institutional investors have wreaked generational problems on the American economy, at the unfair
Leveraged and inverse funds are highly valued-liquid trading instruments that I find very useful for quickly getting long and or short the market and are frequently used for hedging purposes. These products provide a very effective means to manage capital at market risk and there are no other inexpensive-scalable alternatives available to retail investors. These leveraged products provide
