Douglas Smith Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I do not think that regulators should be involved in my investment choices. I am perfectly capable of understanding the risks and benefits of investing in leveraged, inverse, and any other fund/stock available to the public. The leveraged funds I have invested in periodically have allow me to hedge against market transitions. They are an important part of my investment strategy and I believe they should not be restricted in any way.

Kidon Kim Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I am very disappointed how financial regulators are trying to take away power of individual investors to freely invest in public ETFs - leveraged or inversed - which are listed in the public market because they were approved by financial institutions. Yet, the same financial regulators do not place any restrictions on investing "professionals" who short the market or individual stocks without owning a single share for manipulation and their profit. I feel that this move is taking away financial choice of individuals rather than "protecting" us.

Moayad Kassab Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Hello Sir,
I would like to tell you that I oppose restrictions on my rights to invest in public investments.
Since investment should be available to all of the public, I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me
and my family .
I dont need to go through special process before I can invest in public securities because I am capable of understanding leverage and inverse funds and their risks, so I dont need those measures imposed on me.
