Dear SEC,
I would like to express my strong disagreement with the proposed restrictions on my freedom to use leveraged and inverse exchange traded products as I see fit.
I have been investing and trading for over 20 years, and I fully understand and am capable of using these instruments for my own benefit without interference from you or any other entity, public or private.
I also believe this proposal is fundamentally at odds with the free capital markets that are absolutely essential to the functioning of our entire society.
I sincerely hope you will reconsider these proposed rule changes, and work instead to preserve the fundamental rights of investors.
