Amy Weaver Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Why on earth would a "regulatory agency" restrict the financial movements of the citizens they allegedly claim to protect? Better said, why do we have these regulatory agencies in the first place? You are restricting the movement of American people to prosper and invest as we see best. WE are responsible for our spending, our investing, and our losses. Keep your sticky fingers out of our business and remove this plague of yours from the public. In other words, take your regulations and go eat rocks! Please and thank you.

I highly value the ability to invest in levered and complex products. They are an important component of my self-directed portfolio. They allow me to access investment strategies that would be too difficult or impossible to replicate on my own. I use them primarily as a hedging/risk reduction tool. I believe strongly that preventing by regulation the ability of individual investors to invest in these products would be wrong and misguided. Education is key, not unfair regulation.
