Paulina Nguyen Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I would like to freely invest in any funds I would like. if the fund activities are legal then everyone should have the right to choose what to invest. When we talk about risk, anything has risk.. Any stock can go to $0, too. I bought TQQQ and I like it. They invest in it for me. I just buy it and see my fund growing each day. Someday it goes down, too but that is ok. It will go back up.

I should be able to freely choose the public investments that are right for me. Not regulators. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I have been managing my own investments for 30 years, and 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. I am already capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks, I do not need these measures imposed on me.

Dear Madam, Sir,

I strongly believe passing this law would hurt investors like me who are getting to the capital market with small investments and using inverse funds as a hedge strategy to beat the market volatility, even though it is a small portion of my overall portfolio.

I believe public investment should be available to all of the public without any requirement of passing a test. Anyone who is getting into investing in reverse funds, is already aware of the associated risks. Capital Markets are always involved with risks and successful investors know that very well.

Hi. I understand your concerns. But I believe that using criteria such as tests or high net worth to determine who is eligible to trade securities that are deemed "complex", such as leveraged ETFs, is unnecessary and can actually do more harm than good to my long-term financial security.

I can assure you that I am an active trader and that I know what I'm doing. I am well aware of the risks involved in trading leveraged ETFs. I understand that they are prone to time decay, volatility, and so forth.
