The government needs to focus on curbing government caused inflation. The governments insistence in creating legislation to limit investments that allow growth and the ability to maintain and grow my retirement is ever challenged. As a retired individual I have a fiduciary responsibility to myself to seek opportunities to maintain and grow my retirement. I am not rich, but I want to be able to live out my life under my own resources. With todays inflation, Social Security payments are shrunk based on the devaluation of our dollars.

I don't believe regulators should be deciding what investors like me can choose to purchase. I've been investing in leveraged/inverse funds for years know and it's a great way for me to hedge my other investments. It feels like regulators are trying to stop the little people from being able to take advantage of these funds. Please do not let that happen

Please use reason when evaluating new Blockchain technology.

Me not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I believe it is our right as investors in a free and fair market to invest our hard earned money into leveraged ETFs and inverse leveraged ETFs without regulation. It is our duty to make sure we are aware of the risks and regulations of these products and many brokerages offer a warning before trading or investing in these products. The regulation or complete banning of these products puts us at a disadvantage to properly hedge our positions or be within our own personal risk tolerances.

If this is allowed to pass, you are only increasing the wealth gap. You are inherently saying that anyone who has less than x amount is nothing more than a peasant. Remember we done away with the Feudal System hundreds of years ago. All of those investments that you want to block access to, can be traded by everyone with the guidance of a Broker and you know it. You're only concern is to keep anyone not deemed worthy out of them. So kindly [REDACTED]

I understand the risks and the benefits of leveraged ETF. I still can trade options. For years I prefer to trade these leverage ETF. I hope you dont change the rules.

Thanks,

Pallop.

This is [REDACTED] and gatekeeping to an extreme. So the rich can get richer and the rest of us can just [REDACTED]?? This should NOT even be a considered. It is a complete violation of the rights of every single person who chooses to invest their money no matter what their income level is. I demand that you vote no to this [REDACTED].

You live off are backs and want to stop us from even trying to climb the ladder!?!

I am AGAINST passage of FINRA’s Regulatory Notice 22-08 taking effect.

I use leveraged indexed ETF's actively trading them over short time horizons under steady participation in a long time horizon (25+ years) to smooth out inconsequential market fluctuations, even as much as 50%+, as part of my overall portfolio strategy. The financial services providers servicing these funds have been scrupulously, assiduously open and forthright about the risks intrinsic to their offerings, and I am well-informed of those risks.

I DO NOT WANT ACCESS TO COMPLEX PRODUCTS RESTRICTED.
