Conrad Kirakosian Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

To restrict small investors from trading is a crime in itself. As a disabled veteran, I would be greatly shamed to see these actions go through and see millions of people in my salary scale be unable to invest in Proshares products. Please do not do this, Let Americans trade at their own discretion. I (and my fellow investors) are more than capable of understanding how leveraged/inverse funds work and the risks associated with them. Leveraged and inverse investment strategies are a important part of my investment strategies and help protect my financial future when I choose to use them.

We should have the right to choose what investments best suit our family, not regulators. Leveraged and inverse funds are critical to our investment strategies, to which if eliminated would create huge losses to our family. Investment rights should be open and on even ground, not made difficult to have to go through special processes to qualify. In an ever changing and quickly evolving global economy, one must have a wide investment range to balance risk and objectives. Please do not restrict our rights to invest in public investments,

To whom it may concern, I have used leveraged and inverse funds within the past two years in time of high volatility to hedge against my portfolio. If the instruments are taken away from us, and allowed for use for only to special personnel then my right to choose my investments is essentially taken away. I understand that there are risks involved with the use of leveraged and inverse funds, however, in the times of volatility, risks are also involved with purchasing single stocks as well.
