Richard Peterson Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing your arbitrary test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I have been investing and trading in the stock market since 1957 and understand leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not want, and do not need to have your unnecessary measures imposed on me or anybody else. Please just butt out.

I strongly urge that there should be no interference and excessive regulation for using personal funds towards any legal investment vehicle that is, and should be, available in the free market of the US. Especially for directly correlated and leveraged ETF/ETP, the complexity is not that great where the common investor cannot understand the leverage on the underlying portfolio or market strategy. If anything, FINRA and SEC should work on greater transparency from the issuers rather than restricting the American public and essentially calling them 'dumb'. Please stop.
