Eun Park Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. I should be able to choose the public investments, that are right for me and my family. Public investments suould 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 I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds.because I am well aware of the risks of leverage and inverse. so, I use 5~10% inverse and 10~25 leverage of my portfolio. Especially during a bear market like this year, Inverse is protecting my investment.

Please do NOT restrict the use of leveraged ETFs in ANY way. Just this proposal is outrageous: You think only rich and privileged people understand risk? How condescending is that? Leveraged ETFs are the only way for middle class investors to have a decent shot of moving out of the middle class as we aim to become financially independent. Almost all retail investors understand the risk and volatility involved in these ETFs; we still want to invest in these leveraged products (especially leveraged bull market products) only because this is our only chance to become financially independent.

Hello, I am writing to oppose restrictions on leveraged index funds. I invest in leveraged index funds. I know that leverage entails greater risk. However, I feel that it is important for investors like me to be able to make our own decisions regarding these instruments. Personally, I look at the past performance of the fund and the index before making my decision. I also consider my own risk tolerance. Ive been investing since I was 9 and Im almost 20. So, I have the benefit of experience in the market, education about the market and financial instruments, and a greater risk tolerance.
