Me not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. 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 well-educated and fully capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on my right to invest. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies.

The stock market will undergo a difficult period in the coming years. At times, it will be necessary for investors to buy protection to hedge against market declines. Regulations that prevent retail traders from hedging their investments through inverse funds will ensure that large institutional investors profit and protect their investments during market selloffs while retail investors will be decimated. This is grossly unfair and another example of government policies that are designed to transfer wealth from the middle class to the elites.

I OPPOSE RESTRICTIONS TO MY RIGHT TO INVEST

Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategy. I utilize these funds to protect my investments. Additionally, public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

Consider that most actively managed mutual funds available to millions of Americans through their company 401k/403b plans underperform the market. Yet there are no special requirements to invest in those mutual funds.

Oppose regulations restrictions

I don't want these kinds of restrictions on my investing in leveraged and/or inverse funds. These products are a part of my investing strategy and used to protect other investments. Thank you.

FINRA, I should be able to choose the investments appropriate for me including leveraged and inverse funds if I so choose. There should not be special tests imposed to buy these. If you wish to require that brokers issues warnings about risks at the time of purchase, which the buyer must acknowledge, that is okay, but there should not be special processes or tests. I use inverse and sometimes leveraged instruments to offset risks of other investments in my portfolio. I wish to continue to.
Thanks.

We do not need regulators to tell us how to invest our money Public investments should be available to all not the special privileged few.
