Please do not further restrict our access to the investment strategies previously only available to insiders/ISDA holders. Vanilla 60/40 allocations are getting killed, and there is essentially no place to hide from crushing inflation, outside of alternative strategies (e.g. managed futures/systematic trend following, inverse/leveraged ETFs, etc.), which are thankfully reasonably accessible and hopefully growing in availability.

Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I am proud of America's justice and equality,but the privileged are trying to destroy italthough they try to use the name of national security or economic security(so called). U.S. citizens have the legal right to protect their rights and interests and the right to file complaints. Shamelessly depriving citizens of their right to invest and allowing only a privileged few to own itWhat a shame!

Comments: Restricting an investor's access to investment products will only put them at a disadvantage. These tools fit into a number of viable investment strategies, and can be useful to hedge a portfolio to mitigate risk. Having higher net worth doesn't not necessarily make someone a more intelligent, qualified investor. Providing information and making investors aware of risk is acceptable, dictating what products are and are not available to them is not.

Regulators should not be deciding investment strategies for families. They should be making it easier for these families to invest smaller amounts of money in the market. It's high time all investors regardless of their income be allowed to purchase fractional shares.

They shouldn't be imposing special processes like testing investor knowledge of ETFs but rather guide a TDAmeritrade to include hedge related documentation to better teach investors how to use these like a see-saw.
