I should not regulators be able to choose the public investments that are right for myself and my family. 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 I can invest in public securities, including cryptocurrency funds such as BITO. I am capable of understanding cryptocurrency funds such as BITO and their risks.

I do not need any restrictive measures imposed upon me.

I invested in crypto for my future retirement, as I couldnt afford to get into the stock market having always been a low income agricultural worker. I have been a hard working, taxpayer since the age of 16. I am 55 now and expect to have to work another 25 years and cant count on Social Security to be there at that time. I worked hard for the money I invested and cant afford to have it taken away. Thank you for your time.

Please do not impose new restrictions on trading leveraged funds that will effect our ability to continue trading the way we are now. For many people like myself and my family, leveraged funds are a very important part of our investment strategy. We do not feel that it is right to be restricted from trading them simply because we do not have a license, passed a test, or have a particular net worth. We have been trading for years and feel that it is unfair and not right to try and limit us now. To stop us from trading leveraged funds would impact our familys financial future.

Retail investor like me should have the equal right to choose in public investment like leveraged/inverse ETF as it is very important investment strategy for me. I should not have to go through the special process like passing test. As long as I understand the risk and agree to willing to take risk, I should be able to do it. If this right of mine is going to taken away due to high risk of loosing money, then Loto, Casinos in every state posing equal risk.

do not endorse it

FINRA:

I strongly object to the proposed FINRA regulatory notice 22-08.

The proposed measure is quite simply just another example of arrogant governmental agency overreach hatched under the disingenuous guise of protecting the consumer/investor.

Investor rights and abilities to buy/sell whichever public securities they may choose, whenever they choose, must be preserved without interference or manipulative regulation of any kind.

My tax dollars pay for plenty hands off my retirement

I completely oppose restrictions that could impact my ability to trade in both leveraged and inverse ETF's. The US equity markets have recently undergone several bouts of volatility so far in the first 4 months of 2022 with the S&P 500 being down about 14% currently.

We as investors should have the right to invest our money without restrictions.

I've been investing in leveraged ProFunds for more than 20 years and am extremely happy with my investments. I'm more dismayed by the fact that some brokers do not have an agreement to purchase many of the ProFunds which forces me to transfer assets to another broker in order to purchase said funds. Kindly leave my ability to invest as I like and stay out regulating leveraged/inverse funds based on meaningless criteria.
