Jason Pippen Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I completely disagree and oppose this SEC rule and it is a violation of my right to choose how I wish invest my money. You should have no right to threaten my ability to make my own choices. You would be taking away my ability to choose to hedge or make investment decisions about the market. Not all retail traders are infants! We don't need you making decisions for us. It's another attempt to tie the hands of the little guy and give additional advantage to the wealthy. It is an unfair rule and should not be put into effect in any form.

I am writing to ask that you do not put investment restrictions on individual investors with regards to leveraged funds and inverse funds. These funds are safer than taking out margin in my brokerage account to leverage up my positions. Inverse funds are great for portfolio management at times like this when the stock market is over valued and the federal reserve is raising interest rates. It is not fair to make us individual investors take a test to prove our knowledge and understanding of the risk of investing in leveraged and inverse funds.

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 capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. I do not need these measures imposed on me Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. Leverage and inverse funds, help me protect (hedge) my investments to seek enhanced returns.

This is a ridiculous restriction. Let me get this straight. You will allow me to buy unlimited amounts of lottery tickets - almost mathematically guaranteed to lose me all my money in over 99% probability - but you don't want to permit me to spend my own money on investments that allow me to make money when the markets are collapsing. This is a serious restriction of personal liberties.

Attn. FINRA: I oppose any limitations on my ability to buy these types of Funds as leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I should be able to choose the public investments that I consider to be correct for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged few. As a seasoned investor I understand the risks!!! I shouldn't have to be required to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, such as leveraged and inverse funds.
