James Boyles Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

FINRA and other government regulators should never consider limiting regular people's right to invest their wealth in whatever way we see fit. All these regulations just keep people from being able to invest at full capacity and prevent them from making money. People should educate themselves about ETF's and leveraged funds but can use them successfully as I do to hedge in a downturn or for other special purposes.

In the United States, each individual should and have the right to be responsible for ones own decisions regarding his/her own life matters, including ones assets and possessions. Everyone ought to be able to invest in all public securities, since they are to the public. Diversify ones portfolio is a balanced way to invest. Leveraged and inverse funds are part of the vehicles to diversity, which, if done correctly, could improve the long time performance of ones portfolio as long as one understand and control the risks from these funds.

Leveraged funds are a vital part of my overall strategy. They are a small portion of my portfolio but they allow me a convenient vehicle to hedge short term risk, especially when I expect downward corrections. On rare occasions I have used them to enhance returns when strong uptrends are in place. Restricting these investments is unnecessary in a free market system and I urge you to keep these available to investors of all kinds.
