I oppose regulations that would prohibit my use of leveraged ETFs. Ive used them for many years with great success. I am sure that I can manage my risks in my investments. It is not any riskier than buying individual stocks.
Leveraged and inverse funds help me hedge my personal portfolio. They are an integral part of my investment strategy.

I am an aggressive investor. I have had success with a 10 or 15% mix of 2x and 3x bull market etf's. I have found the S&
The only way to make money in a down market is by shorting stock, buying put options, or buying inverse ETFs. Inverse ETFs are the least risky. If you restrict one's access to inverse ETFs, you are forcing them into riskier trades.
