Trent Middleton Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

In re FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08:

I strongly disagree with any restrictions being put into place that would not allow myself and my household from being able to invest into leveraged funds. Investing in leveraged and inverse funds are taken after careful consideration and are used as a valuable investing tool. I should not be burdened with undertaking any additional special processes before being able to use these investing tools.

R Cownden Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

"Complex products" are a valuable resource for investors for diversification of investment strategy and risk mitigation that should be available to all investors. The notice tries to draw parallels between option trading and "complex products", but there is a significant difference in the level of leverage and potential financial exposure between these investments. Investors should be given the opportunity to decide for themselves which publicly traded equities and ETFs they want to engage in without regulatory impediments.
