Mike Larsen Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

This regulation doesn't help me as a consumer or investor. It hurts me. It takes away my options and my ability to decide what is right for me and my finances. The attitude that individual investors are too dumb to understand "complex" investments is offensive. I do my homework and choose my investments based on my own risk profile, investment vehicles and asset classes that I believe in, and having a balanced overall financial portfolio.

Dear FINRA, It is imperative consideration for Proposed Rule #S7-24-15 be discontinued. The funds in question provide individual investors the means to easily diversify and balance exposure over multiple asset classes. This diversification, alongside the already significant margin requirement for purchase of the funds, reduces overall investment risk. This proposed rule would hurt the individuals it is supposedly trying to protect. All individual investors must retain the right to choose the investments they want in their portfolio.
