Tom Stamos Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08
Individuals, not regulators, should be able to choose the investments that meet our objectives. I have been using Leveraged Funds for many years to meet my families portfolio objectives.

This is a joke. Stay out of my investing process. I dont need you to be involved. You should be focusing on Bitcoin.
Consider additional warnings on trading platforms so investors better understand the risks, but please DO NOT restrict trading in ProShares for retail investors. My husband and I invest carefully and have done quite well with ProShares funds in the past. Other investors' ignorance or carelessness should not be a reason to keep us and others like us from investing as we wish in the funds we choose.
I have been an active investor since 1987, I think I know what is good for me, not some faceless bureaucrat in Washington. America is the home of the free-market economy and should not be tampered with.
It is MY RIGHT to choose my own investments that are best for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
Mom & Pop Investors do NOT need you to impose any special process on us, while, in fact, you would be denying us the right to make our own investments.
Please don't take away leveraged funds. We understand what they are.
I have the right amount of risk taking capacity. I do not day trade with them.
the consumer should be allowed to invest in any public fund. there should be no restrictions to what I'm able to invest in!
Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need any regulation or limitation imposed on my ability.
Leverage and inverse funds are important for liquidity issues.
I use it as hedge limiting my investment losses.
There should be at no regulation in investment as possible.
Regulation imposed on public investments, including leveraged and inverse funds makes things get worse.
Thank you
The general public has the right to invest as they please without further burdens. The general public is already at a distinct disadvantage versus institutional investors and this will only further the disadvantage for the general public. You can certainly warn the public as is done with cigarettes but what is being proposed is unconstitutional.
totally not needed. Public investments are public..Period! If I want to invest, it is My Responsibility to understand what I am doing. I am an active user of leveraged and inverse funds for hedging as well as another form of using risk. I also use currency, fixed income products and options. I have lost money as well as made money using these products. Don't impede my ability to use various financial investments or make me waste my time jumping over a bunch of hurdles to become "certified" under created regulations,
