Brad Foulger Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

To whom it may concern. I am writing in regards to the proposed restrictions on certain investment vehicles. My position is let the free markets decide which type of investment are marketable and of interest to the investment community. Politicians are not in a good position to make these decisions. There are already many safeguards in place to ensure educated investors are appropriately screened and warned about the risks of certain types of investment products. Stop the overreach and prolific over regulation.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I shouldn't have to go through any special process
like passing a test before you can invest in public securities,
like leveraged and inverse funds. I am fully capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Larry Morton Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

markets go up and markets go down. i have invested a good amount of money feeling that because of bull and bear market history that we are due for for a bear market. it probably would have happened by now if not for covid and all the money printing the fed has done. i am in the red because of that
and you should not limit my means of getting my money back!
the fed and the government have messed things up enough already. let markets do what they do without interfering. i am retired now and just when it looks like a possible bear market

I read the prospectus, and understand the vehicle. I do not need undue requirements put upon me in order to trade these particular securities. Instead, you, (FINRA, the SEC et al) should simply do your part by making sure these particular investment vehicles meet your applicable requirements (just as you would any other reporting entity), and let the investing public, myself included make our own decisions as to whether we wish to include them in our portfolios.
