The right to freely invest our money is no different than any other fundamental freedom in this country (although many are constantly under attack). Consumers have both the right and responsibility to educate themselves about the risks & rewards associated with any investment, make the personal choice, and accept responsibility for it. Financial regulations always have the perverse effect
I believe I have the right to use leveraged or inverse ETFs as part of my investment strategy. Since shorting stocks is not allowed in a retirement fund, inverse ETFs give me the freedom to take advantage of situations where market conditions are unfavorable. Likewise, options can be used at far greater risk than leveraged ETFs. That said, some might enjoy the use of options to hedge a large
I oppose any restrictions on my freedom to invest in the stock market. This is a overreach by the SEC. I use leveraged funds in my day to day trading to increase returns minimize losses in down market situations. I have been using these type of funds since 2018. I should not have to go through any special processes, approvals or delays in trading. Its my money and the right to do as I wish with
I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, in the spirit of free-market capitalism. No one should have to go through any special process like passing a test before you can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. These instruments should be available to the public, and not just a privileged few. They are an important part of investment strategy that can help me hedge/ protect my stocks investments, and sometimes help me achieve enhanced returns when I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio. I should not have to go
I as an individual investor should be able to choose the investments that are right for me and my family, not just for the "high net-worth" accredited one-percenters. I should have to go through a process of passing a test before I can invest in public securities unless the government is willing to train individual investors like me and administer the test free of charge.
I do not wish to have regulations imposed on my ability to invest with my self directed funds. All funds have risks as do equities and I like the ability to manage my own monies and do not need a nanny to direct me to tell me that I cannot invest. The taking away of our freedoms to invest flies in the face of American values-the very thing I joined the military for. I literally went as I loved
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST ON LEVERAGED INVESTMENTS

Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
