Roy Sowers Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I fail to understand why this issue has resurfaced. I do not feel that I need financial advisor or someone to protect me from myself. This very dangerous territory. If I should not invest in inverse or leveraged funds, maybe I should not invest in start-ups, or penny stocks, or any stock that does not meet with a regulators political opinion. We have far too much WOKE control now.

I have used inverse funds in the past to preserve capital and to stay in the market by hedging against other stocks which I do not wish to sell in a decking market.

This is extremely disappointing that I could be limited in making choices on investments simply because some people who do not know me decide that I must prove I am capable of making certain "risky" investments. This sets a dangerous precedent and I think will contribute to allowing other controls over retail investing that ultimately benefits the large institutions and regulators most.

Greg McFarlane Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Good Day,
I am writing to express the my frustration at hearing that regulators my limit investors ability to invest in leveraged stocks and inverse stocks.

Investors should be able to invest in the stocks they choose to for themselves and their family.

They are an important part of investment strategies and should not be limited to privileged higher net individuals.

As with most regulations, they do more harm that good and have far reaching unintended consequences.

Please do not limit my rights as an investor and as a citizen.
