This proposition poses a severe threat towards market fairness. Retail investors are already at a disadvantage when it comes to available tools and information compared to institutions. Restrictions like this will only tip the balance even more.

I use leveraged funds in a methodical manner as part of my investing strategy. I fully understand the risks associated with leveraged investments and DO NOT believe the government has any right to regulate investment products. It is my personal choice to incorporate leveraged funds as part of my wealth building strategy and I desire to continue to use them. If you must regulate investments,
Dear FINRA, the fundamental question you should ask is this: "Are you, as an investor, competent enough to make your own investment decisions (whether they are "complex" or otherwise)"?

I consider myself well informed and do not need additional regulations to guide my investment choices. Leveraged and inverse products are an important part of my
I am requesting that retail investors like myself retain the ability to invest in leverage and inverse funds. These types of funds will continue to exist, why limit them only to affluent investors through professional firms? I utilize these funds to protect and balance my portfolio as a hedge against downturns and also to realize higher ratio returns without having to buy on margin. My Fidelity
Hi,
There are people who are middle class who know what leverage and inverse products do and how they work. why is it that every regulation which provides an advantage has to do with networth?
