I want to maintain your current freedom to invest in public securities of my choosing. I not regulators 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 capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on you.

I should have the right to determine which public investments are right for me. This should not be decided for me or only limited to the select few.

I should not have to go through any special process to invest in public securities. I am capable of understanding the risks for myself.

These funds are critical to my investment strategies. They are a way to hedge my other investments, help enhance returns, and quite frankly, are my own choice.

No one should manage my money but me. The risks of these products is spelled out clearly and carry similar risks of other unregulated or loosely regulated products. Where does babysitting consumers end? Adults need to understand consequences of their actions. If you don't understand the risks, hire a professional.

Have been in the markets for 50 years and thankfully with Direxion ETFS since inception--
find them easy to understand and use and have total confidence in the concept--has been very
good financially for our family -thank you

You have no business interfering with my investment decisions.

I see no reason for any additional regulations related to my ability to invest. We do not need #22-08!

To whom it may concern,

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest in any public investments of all types.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and your 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 capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Why would I allow regulators to tell me how to invest my own hard earned dollars? I wont! I totally understand how leveraged and inverse funds operate and i enjoy trading these funds. they are an important strategy I use in my portfolio. I am getting sick and tired of others that think they can and should control my trading strategies. There should be no outside regulations controlling me or my strategies and also anyone who wants to invest should be able to do so on their own terms with their own strategies.

I'm 68 years old and have been self-employed for most of my working life. Being self-employed means investing in various IRA, SEP, Self-Employed 401K plans, etc., which I manage myself and have for several decades. The very last thing I need is for government regulators tell me I can no longer have access to leveraged and inverse funds. These investments are a large part of my retirement portfolio. I understand and accept the risks. Knock it off! Find something else to do.

Keep leveraged ETFs available. It should be the public's choice not a regulatory authoritys.
