Leveraged funds are an important aspect of my families investment strategy. I understand the risk. Those of us with long investment horizons should not be limited in our investment choices. Perhaps warnings should provided to investors but options should not be limited.

A move to block the public from investing in leveraged and inverse investments comes across as yet another disturbing example of moves to give the financial elite greater opportunities than the average person. Rather than making the excuse that you are trying to protect the public from themselves, it gives the financial elite who would continue to have access to these sorts of investments greater ability to take advantage of the public with respect to market moves.

Dear FINRA,

Obviously the leveraged products you are considering restricting are demonstrably popular, and therefore unless you believe that most investors are irrational, these products must be serving some useful purpose. Please do not restrict these tools, as they are an important part of my personal investment protocol. Even reducing their availability to the investing public could destroy their utility if their liquidity is significantly lowered.

My ability to use leveraged funds is absolutely crucial to my investment strategies. I've been using them for 10+ years and looking forward to continue doing so for many years to come without restrictions. They do have a different learning curve vs other type of investments so I agree on letting people know about the increased risks but ultimately it should be up to them to decide since there's no such thing as a risk-free investment in today's market.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family - NOT REGULATORS! Public investments should be available to all 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, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.

I should be able to choose my own investments, public investments are for the public and not just the privileged. Leveraged funds have been a fundamental strategy for me and my family to achieve wealth.

I do not agree with the regulations being considered for ETFs like Sqqq, Sdow and the comparable!

I am contacting you to express my opposition to notice 22-08. I have been investing in leveraged funds for well over a decade, and find it inappropriate for you to limit my freedom to do so without undue interference from you. These are my assets, and I believe it is well within the scope of my prerogatives to decide how to invest them.

I enjoy the ability to invest in leveraged funds--it's one reason I've been a successful investor these last three years. I understand both the downside and the flexibility that this affords me. I want the restrictions to remain the same, allowing me the freedom to invest how I want.
