I am very concerned that there is talk about us having more restrictions on what we can invest in not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I am able to go online and read the information to decided what to buy and not have to go through any special
Subject: Investors ability to trade "complex products" - including leveraged and inverse funds (L&I Funds).
Dear Regulators,
I am Kamala Chandrasekaran, 58 years old and I like to voice my opinion regarding your proposal on limiting access to Leveraged and Inverse ETFs (complex products).
Educated Investor: I like to inform you that I am an educated investor in the
Dear Madam, Sir:
I am writing concerning possible restrictions that may be applied to certain securities like leveraged or inverse funds.
I am a private, non-professional investor, but do my homework on stocks. Especially in the last few years, leveraged and inverse ETFs have been an important part of my investment strategy. While they represent a lower percentage of my investment funds, they

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST!!!
Individual investors should have access to all public investment vehicles without regulators dictating which are appropriate/inappropriate. Rather, regulations should focus on transparency and full disclosure of the strategies employed by fund managers and most of these regulations already exist. Rather than rely on regulatory intervention,
To whom it may concern, FINRA's current effort to seek restrictions around "Complex Products" appears to fall into the category of "fixing something that isn't broken." This is something the government often appears to excel in and in this instance reads as a rather arbitrary and capricious effort to restrict access to investment choices. As a rule, I vehemently
Gentlemen, I am puzzled! Wall Street already has a clear advantage over the retail investor on multiple fronts including and not limited to, research, software, the speed of execution, inside information and in politics.
