Dear SEC: I object to your proposed legislation. I operate my portfolio based on recommendations from an investment group. I pay this investment group for their investment advice, and they have a track record with me. Furthermore, their investment advice comes with logical explanations.
I am very concerned to hear that you, as a regulatory body, want to take away the option for investors to invest in inverse funds. These funds are and have been a big part of my investment strategies over the years as an investment option to protect my downside risks in periods of market volatility. I, as an individual investor, should have the option to choose what I want to invest in.......not
The ability to freely buy inverse funds is absolutely crucial for investors, as they are among the best things that can protect against a down market. It's a given that ALL investments have risks, and many investors, including myself are well aware of the risks we CHOOSE to take. I strongly OPPOSE these restrictions.
The government should not restrict the people from investing in any U.S. funds on the stock market. It should be up to the individual investor to determine what is in their best interest. Please quit restricting any type of investment, that is not the governments job.
The ability to invest or trade using Inverse and Leveraged ETFs is critical to my ability to make gains.

As an investor and an advisor, it's interesting to watch how our representatives deem it necessary to place restrictions on how consumers can invest. In my world, we often talk about how so many people go to college, and they work to obtain a business degree from people who have never owned a business and lived it in the real world. I understand, the investment should be able to offer the
Please keep the federal government out of my personal affairs. Thank you.
leveraged and inverse funds are a useful tool to hedge against market reversals. Investors are notified and forewarned that this is NOT a long term investment vehicle. They are used as part of an overall balanced approach to keep beta and delta values close to neutral
I oppose limits on investing in leveraged instruments. I do so on both the long and short side, and also use options. I understand the risks and limits. If you impair these instruments you will be impairing my ability to generate extra income while hedging long exposure to my portfolio and economic risks (e.g., selling cash covered puts on short ETFs). Please stop impairing open investing, and
Do not limit our ability to invest in these instruments.
