James Moran Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Anyone capable of understanding what a stock or bond is, is more than capable of understanding 3x daily leverage on a product.

Leveraged ETFs are a valuable tool for responsible investors and are integral to mine and many others' financial planning.

More importantly, the fund websites already have lengthy disclosures regarding the risks of levered instruments. If someone is going to invest in a fund or company without understanding what they are buying, honestly they are still better off buying a leveraged index fund than some random penny stocks.

Whether or not I am investing at this time is inconsequential. What is important is my rights under the constitution. You have no right to violate my constitutional rights. To insult my intelligence, is unexceptable. To limit my rights to protect myself and/or my family's livelyhood with financial security is unforgivable and a violation of my rights. We do not live in a society where there is a class structure that forbides people to break through the financial ceiling of the rich and powerful. You do not have the right to limit anyone's access to a better life.

To whom it may concern:
As both a financial advisor and individual investor, I am concerned that rules proposed by FINRA will limit my access to financial tools that are important to my portfolio and investing strategies. This includes leveraged and inverse funds that I use to increase my exposure and potential for gains without risking additional capital. These products are important tools that allow me to manage risk on my terms.

I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for you and your family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.

I should not need to go through any special process
before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.

Leveraged and inverse funds are a limited part of my portfolio, they play an important role in of investment strategies. They allow me to protect my other investments.
