I have actively been investing nearly 30 years and during that time have seen the introduction of ETF's and inverse funds which were at that time put under intense pressure to disallow such funds. They have since proved to be very popular and effective tools in the personal investment world.
I believe that any restrictions placed on these funds is strictly an attempt to inhibit my ability to safely and efficiently control my own investment goals.
The possibility of having to go through special "training or testing" to use these valuable tools is just ludicrous and will most likely be proven as just another failed example of a "government official knowing what is best" for the public.
