Alex Persaud Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Completely unfair - the public should be able to take whatever risk they see fit without being subject to excessive requirements. These rules would literally be limiting the public's access to high-risk/high-ROI investments for little reason. There should be tools available to anyone who is interested in going beyond traditional investing (i.e. daytrading, speculation, etc.). Adding literal pay-to-play rules does not make for a healthy market.

Lauren Schneider Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I oppose restrictions on public investments to so-called "complex products" including leveraged and inverse funds. Preventing the general public from accessing these types of investments will subvert the ability of non-high-net-worth individuals from offsetting losses during periods of economic retraction as well as capitalizing during times of volatility with calculated risk-taking.

Mrs. Storch Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I have come to conclude, after so many years of buying and selling securities in my retirement portfolio, that I have developed a set of guidelines borne of my research and experience that provide me with the confidence to continue trading, including in complex products. AND, each trader is different and has developed their own guidelines. Therefore, I don't have confidence that FINRA can provide effective guidelines that would be suitable for all traders of these types of products.
