Inverse ETF's are not exceedingly complex financial instruments. In addition, they can be used easily and cheaply to reduce risk by investors with significant equity exposure. Investors such as myself should have the right to make our own decisions about reducing risk without the need to sell our stock positions. We should not be forced to take a test to retain this right, although i have no
I oppose the attempt to restrict the rights of investors to invest in leveraged and inverse funds.

Thank you

I use leveraged and inverse funds as a protection hedge and to enhance returns. I am fully capable of understanding leverage and inverse funds as well as risks.
