I wish to keep my right to be able to buy leveraged and inverse funds and other popular investments. If it is too complex for me than I can decide on my own. I do not need FINRA or any other government agency to hold my hand. Thank you very much.
As a non-professional retail investor, I strongly oppose the restriction of availability of leveraged and inverse ETFs and other investment vehicles. The risks of trading such securities are already made very clear and are displayed on the order confirmation screen of single buy/sell order, at every major brokerage firm that sells these products.

I do not need anyone to limit my decisions on how, when or why I want to spend my money in any way at all. Life is a Gamble whether I spend my money on Leveraged & Inverse Funds, Casino Gambling, Lottery Tickets, Sports Betting or Speculative Real Estate is my decision. There are No Guarantee's in life.

I have invested on my own for for 36 years, doing my own due diligence, reading, and using my informed judgement.

Any mature adult of sound mind can make financial
I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. You do not know best for others!
Public investments should be available to ALL of the public, not just the privileged.
I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds.
I am capable
please allow my own investment decisions to be mine. not Govt goons
Please do not regulate funds that Ive been investing in safely for years. Individual Investors are sophisticated enough To understand the risks associated with all kinds of investments.
