I oppose the proposal to restrict my right to invest in public investments, specifically leveraged and inverse funds. I invest in these types of funds regularly and fully understand the risks involved. My brokerage firm shows a notification requiring acceptance before allowing the transaction to be completed. I, and I alone, accept the risk for these investments. There is no need for
To whom it may concern,
It is unfair and unfathomable that you would suggest limiting regular investors from investing in complex securities including leveraged funds. The prospectus for these funds are clear and easy to understand. Products such leveraged funds are behaving exactly as expected and as outlined in understandable prospectuses. No additional regulation is needed or warranted. Any
To FINRA, It has come to my attention through my broker that this notice may lead to a restricting of many types of investments that I have available to me.

Other requirements such as a net worth requirement are troubling, to say the least.
Dear Finra, I use these funds to generate income for my family. These are great, innovative products that balance out the risk/reward for an investors portfolio.
Losing accès to these would negatively impact my ability to generate a return and provide form family. Please do not limit access to these funds.
As a former registered representative, I think the pending regulation and restriction on leveraged and inverse funds is unfair and unreasonable. Investors should have these tools at their disposal to protect their portfolios and have the chance to increase returns as they see fit.
I have watched for years as unelected regulators have destroyed business after business in order to protect those who know nothing about business. I travel from one side of the world to the other and I have never seen another country that has tried to dumb itself down the way the US has. There are some people who do the required work to invest in leveraged investment products. Do not dumb
Let regular Public invest whatever they want to. Regulator should be ones not allowed to buy in themselves.
Government regulators do not know and should not choose which investment vehicles are right for my family. I am capable of understanding the risks associated with leveraged ETFs and inverse funds, and making judgment calls on whether to invest without regulatory oversight.
please dont interfere our rights to invest
I strongly oppose losing my rights to trade leveraged or complex funds. Investing should come with a level playing field and net worth should not dictate ones ability to invest.
I understand that large investors may feel threatened by retail investors having access to markets, however, markets endogenously represent consumer demand and consumers should have the right to participate in the markets
