I should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for me and my family, like using leveraged and invers ETF to hedge my positions when market drops like 2002 and 2008. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I 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 capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Comments: I am an experienced investor that has been investing for over 40 years. I know the risks involved in leveraged investments and take precautions as appropriate.

The decision whether or not to I vest in a leveraged fund or ETF should be left up to the Individual. We are adults and only we can manage our money.

The fund/ETF prospectus give us a very clear understanding of the risks involved in investing in leveraged funds.

We do not need any more regulation on now we can invest our money. Thank you,

Investor as myself should have right to choose the public investments that are suitable for my 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 fully capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not agree that these measures should be imposed on me.

It seems clear that any regulations on investment instruments like these are strictly to deny the general public from access to investment tools, and further the division between the ruling and working class. If FINRA really cared about the people you would be investigating dark pools, selling order flows, and limiting the way that short sellers are allowed to manipulate the market. I dare say that you are just a phoney regulatory organization that is entirely controlled by the wealthy elite and in service to the wealthy elite, and I hope you all [REDACTED]

I work in the finance industry and we already endure severe restrictions in terms of how we can hedge downside risk. These include restrictions against short selling and options (have to hold a positions at least 30 days while the option loses value due to time decay).
Profunds short mutual funds are the only viable way to hedge long positions without being forced to liquidate those long positions and incurring capital gains. Please don't remove the last remaining tool we have just as we enter a recession!

I AM FREE TO BUY THE DIP OF WHATEVER STOCK I WANT, AMERICA IS SUPPOSED TO BE FREE. TQQQ and SPXL FOR LIFE

I think these restrictions on my right to invest should not be put in place

I have been investing in leveraged funds for more than a decade. I understand the risk that why I invest in this fund only 1/3 of the money and I keep the rest in my savings account. If the Nasdaq goes down, I limit my loss to 33%.

I am a regular individual investor currently investing in multiple leveraged etfs. Just because I am not in the 1% or a part of a major financial cooperation does not mean that I do not have the ability to study, learn, comprehend and weigh the risks of using the same financial instruments that professionals use. To regulate instruments like leveraged ETFs is an insult to retail investors like myself and further restricts retail investors' ability to compete with commercial investors.
