I assist my retired mom via dividend income investing to supplement her SS benefits, and your contemplated imposition of restrictions to invest would, in practice, forbid me from investing on her behalf because she would not be able to pass those tests on her own.
This year, I used leveraged and inverse funds for my mother's account and met her financial objective. If these tools are
To Whom it May Concern: I am writing in opposition to SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15 which would place unduly burdensome restrictions on persons wishing to invest in leveraged an inverse funds. This rule would require passing a test, showing high net worth, "cooling off" periods and other impediments that would do nothing to address the risk that regulators perceive in these investments.
I think it should be up to investors to decide what they want to invest their money into. I understand what crypto is probably more than any of the law makers (unfortunately). Having crypto exposure in my retirement fund is key to my investment strategy. Funds such as BITO are complementing my investments, not hurting them. By restricting crypto trading you are leaving the hole US market at a
Regulating this type of investment is an infringement upon the individuals ability to invest how they see fit. Americans already surrender a portion of their pay to fund a badly run retirement fund Social Security.

The public is perfectly capable of reading and understanding a prospectus and the associated risks and making wise investment decisions for themselves and their families. The securities under consideration for additional regulation such as leveraged and inverse funds are a key strategy to my
I have used leveraged funds in all my accounts both retirement and taxible accounts since they have been available. I use the funds in several ways one as a hedge and the other as part of a longer term strategy and am aware of the risks associated with these types of accounts and how they operate and close out positions each day. I do not want to have to jump through any more hoops to be able to
I would like to be free to invest in what I deem appropriate for me, my investment and retirement goals, and my risk tolerance. I do not need someone who knows nothing about me, my personal goals or my personal risk tolerance to attempt to determine what is or is not appropriate. Nor do I need someone else to tell me what they think I may or may not understand. In short, I do not need someone

The manipulation in the market is obvious. Details come out every day that point toward market manipulation. Information has been released on previous manipulation that led to the recession in 2008 and it is obvious that no lessons were learned from that crash. Money makers are only concerned with creating enough profit through manipulation to pad themselves during these economic downturns.
