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.
If there are investment products being created and publicly offered on the market that are overly complex and/or dangerous to public investors due to potential for manipulation, fraud, or other problems, then the regulations should be placed on the creators of these products, not John Q. Public citizen and investor.
