I am shocked and disheartened to know that regulations/prospectuses are under consideration to preclude retail investors from trading the Leveraged and Inverse ETFs, such as TQQQ and SQQQ, etc. As a retail investor with limited funds to hedge against market risks, for instance, I often buy SQQQ to protect my tech stock position without holding up a large proportion of my liquidity, which has
I am not a child, and am fully capable of making my own decisions about investing, just like I can buy my own house, car, and insurance. I don't need regulators telling me how to invest. I am fully aware of all the risks. I have been investing in leveraged ETFs for more than 15 years, and use them for hedging and for decreasing the amount I invest to get a similar result. Another

I oppose these proposed rules because I, not regulators, should be able to choose the investments that are right for me and my familys future.
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged elite.

As a licensed CPA, with a Bachelors and Masters degree, working in a corporate finance department, I find it outlandish to propose such a policy that will limit the access of public investments to others due to the risk entailed (which is disclosed by brokers) or due to ones net worth. Net
I have a very modest portfolio of funds for my retirement and over the past ten years, the use of leveraged funds has benefited me greatly so that my retirement dreams may finally come true. I have a salary that would have otherwise not allowed me to retire.
I have been a personal investor for more than 20 years and after ten years of investing, I introduced the use of this investment instrument
I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. They help me hedge my investments and enhance my returns, and I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio. I have been investing for more than 10 years. With the experience plus my education - a PhD from a university in the U.S., I am capable of understanding leveraged and
Response to the Financial Industry Regulatory Authority (FINRA) proposed rules on leveraged ETFs Leveraged ETFs may be volatile but it is not more volatile than many individual securities. In addition to uncertainties with individual stocks, Investors are able to allocate the use of leveraged ETFs to diverse their assets to fit their risk tolerance against the effects of a volatile and uncertain
I strongly oppose restrictions on the ability to invest in complex funds. I understand that complex funds carry unique risks, but I and other adults are fully capable of performing our own research and analysis. We are capable of coming to our own decisions regarding whether or not to put money into a riskier investment. The ability to choose should belong to individual investors, not regulators
I'm an ordinary person and I routinely use leveraged and and inverse ETFs to take advantage of special situations at a minimum of risk.
TQQQ, for example, allowed me to gain exposure to the tech market during the COVID-19 bust with only a small fraction of the capital commitment that it would have otherwise taken. TBT enabled me to hedge against interest rate rises without having to
