Contingency Planning
Although most businesses are working diligently to ensure that their Year 2000-related issues will be resolved in time, everyone must anticipate that some things will be overlooked, ignored, or not completed on or before December 31, 1999.

I have been using leveraged funds since inception. I have a methodology for investing using charting and QLD and others are the best vehicle for executing my plan. If these funds are removed, then my successful plan for investing for nearly 20 years will not be feasible.
Please protect the ability to trade via leveraged funds.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST!
I should be able to choose what I invest in for my family, not by regulators overstepping telling me what I can do with my money.
I should not have to go through any special tests before investing in securities.
I should be able to diversify my portfolio with the investments that best fit my plan, not regulators plans.
Regulating plans such as pensions and retirement plans (401k, 403b, etc), where the saver/investor has little to no input on how the fiduciary treats their money is wise.
REMOVING ACCESS TO VALUABLE INVESTMENT TOOLS FOR THE INDIVUAL INVESTOR, MAKING THEIR OWN DECISIONS, IS NOT.
Please do not make it harder for me and my family to invest our assets in a way that meets our needs!

I strongly urge the FINRA regulators to drop plans to restrict the use of leveraged or inverse funds. I am perfectly able to read the prospectuses and calculate the risks associated with them. There is no need to require any testing to see if investors understand how they work. These funds are very important to my long term investment planning and help me to protect my capital during periods
