Jason Maine Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

It is critical that all investors and not select few institutional traders or prescreened individuals have access to all instruments helping us protect our portfolio and retirement funds. Leveraged and inverse funds offer critical ability to reduce our portfolio beta in the times of volatility and control broad risk exposure without complex instruments like options or betting on individual securities.
I strongly object to FINRA proposing obstacles to investing in inverse leveraged funds. There is absolutely no intellectual qualification for high net worth investors in complex funds today. Removing investment options for less wealthy but already self-educated investors is just a means to rig markets so that only the wealthy (and often under-educated) can profit from downturns in the market. This is unconscionable. Stop this. Wealth should not be the filter for investment options.
Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. I oppose any restrictions on my options for investing. Rules are already strict enough.
I have the freedom to invest in whatever I want. The government will restrict this to only let the elites gain more money. I am doing whatever I want with the money I earned. Regulate any other investing if you regulate this as well. We need no more federal regulations, especially on decisions I make with my money. Stop sending money to Ukraine and third world countries and spend it on America. I need no advice from the swamp
Do not restrict my right to invest
I oppose restrictions on the way I invest
More regs from the bureaucracy that increases the cost of doing business. Pls stop it!
I, not the regulators, should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family, Leveraged and inverse funds are important to my investment strategies. It just seems reasonable that Public investments should be available to all of the public and not just the privileged, I use the inverse funds because they are cheaper than shorting the much higher priced opposite funds for me.
I am very capable of determining whether I should be investing in any public investment and if I weren't then it would be my own fault. I don't need the government restricting my right to invest in any public investment.
