Marios Philippou Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in TQQQ, SQQQ and other leveraged products. I have been investing in these products for years and they are no more risky that any other stocks in the market. Anybody trading in the market has to understand that there is risk involved and chooses to take that risk...regulators should not try to babysit investors by trying to tell them which stock or fund they should or should not invest in.

I resent the thought that I cannot choose for myself what investment products work best for me. And I find it insulting, manipulative and corrupt that only those with privilege (high net worth investors) would be allowed to use these trading vehicles. I use these types of vehicles to hedge positions as well as to take advantage of down movements, since I can not use options in my IRA account. I don't need a mama or some Big Brother organization trying to assume parental type authority.

I have been a holder of TBT as an inflation hedge against higher interest rates for a while now. The position has been profitable and is becoming even more profitable with recent rate hikes. I am a long term investor and want to be able to choose my investments that I feel are suitable for me, I do not want my choices dictated by someone else. My trade was unsolicited and made with the full knowledge that I could lose money if rates went against me. It is a small measured position and will not impact my overall portfolio in the least.
