It is an investors right to be able to access the entirety of the public securities markets. To limit this to certain high net worth individuals is discriminatory and likely easily overturned in court. Why waste the public's money on guaranteed litigation? Requiring testing before allowing investment is also a barrier to entry. What if I'm someone of lesser means, do I have to pay to
I oppose regulations that limit my right to invest in public securities and public investments, including inverse funds and leveraged products. People should not have to pass regulator-imposed tests or have high net worth in order to be allowed to make investments and balance their portfolios with the products that best represent their investment goals and risk appetite.

With the world economy in the state it's in, it's imperative that investors have the right to invest where and when they so choose, without any regulations.

Leveraged and inverse funds have helped me meet my retirement goals with their enhanced
I oppose restrictions on my rights to invest in public investments.
I believe 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, not just the privileged.

I am strongly opposed to any new regulations that would hinder an investor's ability to navigate today's complex markets. Tools such as leveraged and inverse funds are critical to the ability to hedge a portfolio. In fact, I find the existing rules to be somewhat arbitrary and onerous.

I'm writing in opposition to proposed rules that would limit the public investor from investing in inverse and leveraged funds. I find it insulting that you feel you know better than the investor how to best analyze risks and formulate investment strategy. I feel that I, as well as most retail investors are perfectly capable of making investment decisions including using such funds in
I, not any agents of the Federal government, am in the best position to make competent decisions about the public securities I want to buy and sell, as well as my personal risk tolerance. Applying a predetermined amount of my portfolio to an indexed ETF is an important part of diversification for me. I should be able to continue making similar choices without having to go beyond my own sound
To apply these additional burdens to investors is absurd.
Why only allow the wealthy elites of society access to leveraged products?
Is FINRA my nanny? Can I not decide what risk is appropriate for my own family? Does one need to be so highly enlightened to understand levered products?
Will you start saying that Growth stocks are too risky and limit my ability to invest in them too? If not, why
I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in public investments, I shouldn't have to go through any special process before I invest in public securities such leveraged and inverse funds. I understand their risk involved. public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I do not need these measures imposed on me, leveraged and inverse funds are
I feel it is discriminatory to have to go through a special process like passing a test before I can invest in leveraged and inverse funds. In finding these funds and evaluating them to invest my money I have inherently proven that I understand these funds and their risks.
The measures proposed would limit my ability to grow my retirement funding and provide for the long term security of my
