I regularly use leveraged and inverse funds to hedge my investments. They are an invaluable tool and I use them in a sensible and limited capacity. I am not a "high net worth" individual. I find it offensive that FINRA would even consider taking these away from regular investors. This would just be further proof that this game is "rigged" for the big players.
Comments: I believe that it is an overstep by FINRA to limit access to leveraged and inverse ETFs. By limiting access, FINRA is unduly infringing on the rights of free market participants. Providing education on these products to investors is more than appropriate, but limiting access would be an overstep. I, and all of the people I know personally, have a deep understanding of the
Hi. I understand your concerns. But I believe that using criteria such as tests or high net worth to determine who is eligible to trade securities that are deemed "complex", such as leveraged ETFs, is unnecessary and can actually do more harm than good to my long-term financial security.
I can assure you that I am an active trader and that I know what I'm doing. I am

Dear Sirs,
In my opinion FINRA is taking a deceitful step in proposing to restrict an individual's right to invest in Public investments. What you propose is an over reaching "Nanny" solution. People who invest do so with the knowledge there are risks. We win some and we lose some. The dwindling middle class has been affected more from Federal manipulation of the
To Whom This May Concern, I do not agree with SEC Proposed Rule #S7-24-15. I believe that I should have the ability to choose what investments are appropriate for myself. I am capable of appropriately educating myself without having to pass "tests" imposed on me. Leverage and inverse funds are very important to my investment strategy. In fact, I followed a very regimented investment
I stand in opposition to any proposed FINRA regulations that would prohibit me from purchasing or owning inverse or leveraged funds. Further, I oppose any attempt to create a special process such as passing a test before I can invest. After all, they are public securities. These products include extensive disclosure documentation which is more than sufficient to warn of the potential risks of

I'm very disturbed that FINRA is considering regulations to limit my investment in leveraged and inverse funds. I respectfully submit that I should continue to have the right to choose my investments.
