Dear FINRA,
Public investments should be available to all of the public NOT just the PRIVILEDGED. I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me.
I am very capable of understanding investments and the risk. I shouldn't have to go through any special process of test taking before investing in leveraged and inverse funds. I have done my own research and are very
(1) The leveraged and inverse funds offered by financial institutes provide excellent investment opportunities and give us financial security. Surely, the investors should aware of their risk and reward. Just like any investment that no investment can guaranty their future performance.

I have invested and traded stocks, options, etf's for 20 years and understand the risks involved.

PLEASE...Do not punish educated investors by enacting the severe regulations which you are proposing in regards to inverse and leveraged ETFs. I have used these very successfully for many years.

I oppose the proposed rule regarding increased restrictions on trading certain funds / securities. I, and other members of the public, am capable of making investment decisions and can suitably analyze the benefits / drawbacks to various investments. Taking risks is a fundamental part of the human experience, and placing further limits on the kinds of people who can trade certain products will
I read with concern the notice from Ameritrade that there is pending regulation on my ability to self-direct my investments in my company's 401k plan into leverage ETF funds. For the life of me, I cannot think why this proposed restriction would be necessary. Self-directed investors are well aware of the risks involved with any sort of investment and should be free to take additional
