I am writing in strong opposition to this proposed rule. I and my advisors should be the ones to determine if investments are right for me, NOT the government regulators. I also should not have to pass a test before investing in public securities. I understand full well the risks and rewards of leveraged and inverse funds, and it is not up to the government to suggest or tell me otherwise. The
This possible new regulation makes no sense as you already have to be approved by many brokers to invest in leveraged funds. This seems like a new way to limit the possible returns an investor can make, as well as cater to more institutional investors rather than individuals.
I am writing to oppose restrictions on my right to invest in leveraged and inverse funds. I use such funds as protection for my portfolio. I, not regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that serve my investment intentions. There is plenty of opportunity for individual investors to gain understanding of individual investments and their risks.

I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

A lot of negative ripple
Leveraged and Inverse Funds are an important part of investing strategy. It creates options to offset adverse market conditions. These are much needed funds for any investor.
I strongly and vehemently OPPOSE this rule attempting to restrict my choices in investing in Leveraged and Inverse Leveraged ETFs. As an individual investor I have invested in these continuously over a 15 year period with no negative results. We know what we are doing and the SEC should not interfere with unneeded restrictions on my rights.
