I oppose restrictions to my rights to invest. I believe Americans have the right to trade any public investments with no limitation or restrictions. I, not the regulators should be able to chose the investments that are right for me.

To Whom This May Concern,
I have been investing for many years and manage my own retirement planning. I would like to be able to choose what investments I make. The government should not be trying to protect me from my own choices. Everyone should be able to participate in investing as they see fit and to their own risk tolerance level. I do not object to educational info on riskier
Comments: I have a strong understanding of the characteristics and risks of leveraged investments. I understand this should be monitored regularly, and that they are for short-term trading.
