I am opposed to the implementation of this rule. I am a small scale, non-pro investor and these type of ETFs come in handy when I believe I have determined the direction of a given market. Like ALL investment vehicles, there are risks involved. But to make requirements for participation restrictive to certain accounts is just absurd to me.

Should these vehicles only be available to high net worth individuals? There is enough special privilege already in the system that rigs the system against individual investors. This rule amounts to further theft.
