Remember that time the people of Massachusetts weren't allowed to take part in Apple's IPO? I love blanket rules that assume those with wealth also have more knowledge and have done more research. Not everyone is lucky enough born into old money. But this sure is a step in the right direction to make sure fewer people have that privilege in the future. Make sure to limit the
These rules are exceptionally deleterious. In a free society with free markets it is presumed that individuals know their own best interests. Undoubtedly mistakes will be made, but these mistakes are self-correcting because people learn. Bureaucratic mistakes are not self-correcting, because when there is a mistake made. then bureaucracies tend to either deny, or add more regulations.

I would like to oppose this rule. In my opinion, investors who are investing in these complex products know the risks already. Also brokerage companies let us informed of the risks. Whenever i try to buy a leverage fund, my broker shows warnings at multiple places in big bold red letters during the transaction. I suspect if someone "accidentally" bought these leveraged funds. I
I oppose any restrictions on my right to invest in public investments. I do not agree that any special process like passing a test to be able to invest in public securities and inverse leveraged funds. Making investors try and prove their ability to protect my investments puts a restriction on my ability to secure my entire portfolio of investments. I am NOT ALIGNED with this notice as it creates
I clicked over to a website that does not support the proposed rule, but I *DO* agree with the limitations being proposed. I was Series 7 and Series 63 licensed, and have seen many people maneuvered into investments that neither they nor their financial advisors understood. The results can be devastating.
