Jose Hernandez-Ortiz Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08
I need to have the ability to decide on my own investments. Especially as an accredited investor I shouldnt be restricted from investing in leveraged products.

I am an adult capable of making informed decisions. Just think of all the tax revenue that you will lose. It will be in the Billions not hundreds of millions. Thanks, Eric Schodde
We investors need the access to all investment options. Leave inverse investments alone and let us be warned and informed by the information that is available.
Dear FINRA,
I have no doubt these proposed rule changes are not being taken in order to "protect" the average investor. Instead these rule changes seek to add further restrictions on retail investors in order to protect financial institutions from incuring losses during this period of high volatility. Passing these rule changes would be an injustice to the average American. I personally would be heavily affected, as proshares triple leverage ETF's are at the core of my investment strategy. Please reconsider, on behalf of millions of americans.
To whom it may concern,
Please do not restrict the usage of leveraged and/or inverse funds. They serve a great purpose in hedging one's assets or enhancing returns. I'm very clear on how these products work and there is no reason regulators should be restricting my ability to invest or my strategies.
I respectfully request that individual investors such as myself be continued to be provided with the opportunity to invest the leveraged investment products, inverse or otherwise. I understand that long term investment in leveraged inverse products are very risky. However, I use these products for short term hedging purposes, and without them my investment portfolio would be subject to an unacceptable level of risk especially during highly volatile periods. Thank you for your consideration.
I am an adult, have free right to choose my investment. Don't restrict the short ETF. American stock market needs it to cool down and control our desires.
Public investments should be available to all of the public. Retail traders or investors should be able to freely choose whatever products that fit their trading strategies!
I oppose this regulation
The ability for individual investors should never be restricted or otherwise limited by the Government. Investment opportunities should not be limited. Investors are capable of making decisions and should not have their hands tied in doing so by having regulations put into place that limit their ability to make their own investment decisions.
Implementation of this regulation to limit investment opportunities should NOT be put into place.
