I completely oppose this rule that would limit my ability to make decisions for myself. Stop trying to use finance to control us regular people. Do not pass this rule!

Please DO NOT limit my ability to invest.

In regards to the Regulatory Notice 22-08.

I am a retail investor and have been using both long and short leveraged ETFs sense 2009 without issues or concerns of their operation or behavior. I use them to enhance market performance on the up side and to reduce risk when I see the market pulling back.

I would hope to continue using the funds long into the future and would be disappointed if they were to be removed from my investment options.

investments that are right for the people. Public investments should be available to all of the people.

I am very distressed to learn that someone is considering to place restrictions and hurdles to overcome for my ability to trade inverse mutual funds. Following advice of my financial advisor and educating myself about the S + P 500 index/inverse index, I have been using the strategy for several years. I AM PLEASED WITH THE RESULTS. I know the risk and reward of using inverse funds. To my knowledge, every mutual fund company that offers inverse funds has VERY CLEAR, FORCEFUL warnings about using them. People do not need to be protected from themselves. This is a free country.

We should have freedom to invest just like the previous sharks had freedom to manipulate the markets.

No more regulations on anything

Leveraged funds are very important to my investment strategy. I completely understand the leveraged risk involved with investing in these funds. I should be able to keep investing in them. Please do not take away my ability to use these investment funds.

I write options. Leveraged funds give a higher premium. I am in the market for over 40 years. I know what I am doing. I should have freedom to do what i want and after all this experience should not have to take a test

Discriminating against individuals that like to invest in their future but not waste money on a four year degree is ignorant. Is FINRA afraid some lowly, not college educated thinker will surpass them?
