It seems that our government is increasingly inserting itself into the lives of its citizens, insinuating that they are not competent to make their own decisions regarding risk. In my case, leveraged investments allow me to keep a larger percentage of my portfolio in cash (liquid and lower risk). The leveraged investments allow me to participate in the market.
I shouldn't have to go
Having access to inverse funds, such as the ones available from ProShares, is extremely important to me as it helps me hedge risk in my equities portfolio.
I do understand that many consumers may not be familiar with the risks so I fully support limitations on levered funds including 2x, 3x, etc. However, access to inverse funds should be kept available.
Thanks for protecting me as a retail
I believe people should be able to ivest money as they wish. I do not want to see more restrictions put onto investors. Please do not limit our investing ability.

I use leveraged equities to hedge investments for protections. And it has been helpful to offset volatility in the market. I dont have millions to invest but when I look for products
I should be able to invest on an public securities without having to go through any special process. I've invested for the past 40 years and I know the risks involved.
I believe I should be able to make investments I feel fit.
The restrictions on buying leverage ETFs shouldn't be any more stringent than what it takes to purchase a gun in this country. You can't lose any more money in these types of investments than you can with a risky individual stock. And with leveraged ETFs, they at least offer a level of diversification depending on which one you are investing. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to
