Kedar Kulkarni Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

There are already several restrictions in place that make the public markets unfair towards those who are not institutional or professional traders as is demonstrated by the GME debacle. The risks of leveraged products are well advertised and there should not be government restrictions on those who choose to take those risks. Leveraged investments vehicles as those from ProShare/Direxion provide a cheap way for the home investor to include some leverage in their portfolio and even the playing field with large institutions who have cheap access to leverage the small investor does not.

I strongly oppose any new regulations regarding leveraged and inverse ETF's. I am not a high net worth individual. I depend heavily on these instruments to grow and secure my own retirement and savings. The risk I take is my own to manage, not anyone else's. Regulations are supposed to protect people like me, not reduce the tools and opportunities I have to improve my economic well being. Preventing me from using these instruments shrinks the tool bag I have to grow my wealth.

Dear sir/madam,
I purchased a lot of shares (about 100000 shares) of YINN in both cash and IRA accounts around $8. It is trading about $4.00 today. I would like to have the trading ability of this ETF until it comes back to its original price. I am 60 years old and don't have a normal job. My wife was laid off this March. Potential loss of 400-800 thousand dollars will have a great impact to our life.
Please keep my request of trading ability.
Thank you very much.

Finra, you should investigate big hedge fund who are manipulating the market rather than going after small guy. People know what they doing when they invest in leveraged funds. There are clear warnings from broker. These securities do not pose any significant risk to the market. In fact, these securities are the safest way to express bull or bear interest in particular sector or broad market. Stay away and do your real job.

Leveraged and Inverse Funds are a large part of my investment choices. I know what I am investing in. I know the risks. It's my decision to invest in Leveraged and/or Inverse Funds whether I make or lose money. It simply doesn't make sense to limit one of their ability to make money for themselves and their family. Regulators do not know my personal situation or my investment knowledge.
