Regulators,
As a free people, we require the ability to invest without your added controls. You are over-stepping your assumed powers. WE THE PEOPLE are in control. Your choice to control us will lead to our countries ruin.
It poses a severe threat towards market fairness. It's like preventing people from skiing because it's dangerous, but except the rich ones. Retail traders or investors should be able to freely choose whatever products that fit their trading strategies. Finance is NOT only for the rich or the privileged. We know what leveraged funds are. Also, the liquidity will be severely
I oppose the proposed new regulations for inverse and leveraged funds.
I support new restrictions on speed trading. why should a few specialized traders that do nothing but make trades based on the speed of execution be allowed to influence security prices and clog up execution for legitimate trading.
I 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.

The largest risk associated with these leveraged funds equates to nothing more than simple mathematics. An additional risk, which has already proven true in the past for other financial tools, is the prohibition of the common investor and trader from the use of these instruments.

I find it odd that FINRA would require individuals to possess a net worth of greater than 1.000.000 dollars or an income of over 200.000 a year in order to invest in leveraged ETFs. This effort blatantly furthers the financial disparity in the United States unequally allowing privileged individuals to create larger pools of wealth. No correlation exists between a persons competency and the size
