I am opposed to any such regulations by any governmental organization.

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in leveraged and inverse funds/ETFs. I am a middle-class American and have educated myself to understand different investment strategies - including the usage of leveraged ETFs. In my specific case I use leveraged ETFs to enhance my overall growth strategy - which is a mix of bonds, index funds, and individual company stock investments. For one I am using these type of leveraged funds to protect myself to the downside, but also to accelerate growth opportunities.

It's critical for us to have all instruments possible not less

I'm totally opposed to the regulations to stop investors from using inverse and leveraged investment products. I use these as insurance for my long positions.

Please keep things the way they are now.

Whats next Fried chicken and alcohol can also be bad for you. Are you going to create a rule for people to pass a health test and a written test to be able to eat fried chicken and drink alcohol??

Its called freedom of choice. Protect it. Dont take it away.

keep government out of my investment choices

I should be able to decide which public investments I feel are right for my individual investing, and not be available for just the privileged. These type of investments are very important to my overall strategy and allow me to hedge my investments while also affording me enhanced returns in certain environments.

I think the individual should have the opportunity to make whatever Investments he or she chooses is appropriate. The regulator shouldn't tell him what the individual can and can't do. If there is fraud involved, that's a different matter. But if the individual would like to use a leverage long or inverse product, he should have the right to do so.

I oppose limitations on our ability to buy the Funds include the leveraged and inverse funds

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family, not regulators. 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 you can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. Explain that you are capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.
