Do not restrict choice and availability to general public investors.
I should have the right to purchase any leveraged or inverse fund. I have used these investment strategies to hedge my portfolio on many occasions. When the markets are in a downturn these hedges give me another investment option.
The big money traders have all the hedged investment opportunities available, so why should we be limited with our choices. This is "WRONG" for the
Once again, Government overreach!!! You destroy EVERYTHING you touch! Stick with deciding if your a man or a woman and leave AMERICAN FREEDOM alone!
It is not fair to restrict ordinary trader's rights to choose their investment vehicles. We are fully aware of the risks and awards. To many people, this is the only way they can make money.
FINRA should not be restricting leveraged products since it allows retail investors to easily access strategies and products that can produce outsized gains.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST. Do not interfere with my investment choices.

Dear FINRA, I am an individual investor who has done thousands of trades almost three decades and am fully aware that I am responsible for my own investment decisions. I have absolutely no problem with that. The problem that I WILL have is if you remove or severely hinder my right to make my own life choices. This is not Putin country.
