Walter Fallows Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I oppose FINRA's limitations on my ability to buy leveraged and inverse funds. These are public funds, but proposed limitations on my ability to buy and sell these instruments will make them available only to a select group.

I have used these types of instruments for many years as a hedge in my portfolio. I am certainly able, and motivated to understand risks and upsides to leveraged and inverse funds.

I not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. Leverage and inverse funds, including that they help you protect (hedge) your investments or seek enhanced returns, and I use them as a limited part of my overall portfolio.
