Hello
I am an investor with over 25 years of investment experience. I should be able to buy/ trade any public investment that is available in the market place that fits my objectives. Institutions already have a lot of advanced capabilities thats not available to individuals like me. Leveraged and inverse ETFs are an effective way of hedging and reduce capital risk. I know the risk and benefits
Dear Sir,
I was made aware of the possibility of trading restrictions being placed on inverse and leveraged investment vehicles.
Using these types of investments allows me to safe guard my portfolio from market declines without having to liquidate my primary investments using only a small portion of my capital. I prefer them to options as I don't have to worry about expiration dates.
I am an educated adult American citizen. I am fully capable of making my own decisions on what security to invest in, including leveraged and inverse funds. In fact inverse funds specifically allow me to increase my capital in down markets instead of just sitting on the sidelines. I dont need or want a government or quasi government agency telling me what I can invest in, or reserving inverse and
I oppose regulators limiting trades on inverse and leveraged etf's and stocks where the investors are fully aware of the risks.

The ability to purchase funds independently like this is extremely
I vehemently oppose restrictions from Regulators such as FINRA whom I consider bureaucrats to limit my ability to invest in Leveraged ETFs. I have utilized 3X Leveraged ETFs for over a decade with tremendous success that has enabled me to amass millions in capital gains and has allowed me to retire comfortably. I do not want an investment "nanny" to tell me how I want to
Gentlemen - Your proposed limitations on investments such as "leveraged" and "inverse" funds are antithetical to free capital markets and an insult to the intelligence of American investors. We don't need your"help" or "guidance", or any other "assistance" from government bureaucrats who have never
I am vehemently opposed to restrictions on my right to invest in leveraged instruments. These leverage instruments help to hedge my portfolio. These restrictions are contrary to open markets and capitalism. It should be up to the investor to research and understand risks and not the nanny state! The investor and not the regulator should be the one to determine what kind of investment is right
I oppose the legislation in the proposed rule #S7-24-15. I like the ability to invest in leveraged funds, specifically SQQQ. When the market indicators show that the markets, in this case the Nasdaq Composite, is going to go through a contraction, funds like SQQQ allow me to realize a greater return with less capital. Funds such as SQQQ help level the playing field for other investors that do not
