Hello,

Buying Leveraged and Inverse Funds are an excellent tool for investors to position. They can be used for long term investing or short term during volatile uncertain market environments.

Investors realize that putting their money in the stock market is their own choice and is a risk proposition. When selecting a leveraged or inverse fund, the disclaimers are clearly stated too. So, I'm not sure why a third party should be evaluating an investors decision to invest in these funds.

Options are another "risky vehicle" that investors have and that is not being considered to be removed, so why leveraged and inverse funds?

Please allow this freedom to investors and do not introduce additional regulations.

Appreciate your consideration
