Michael Dammen Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I have several of the funds and investment vehicles you are talking about regulating in my portfolio. As an average citizen, I am completely capable of researching and understanding risks and rewards of different investment products. I do not appreciate being called unworthy of investing in these products. Wall Street is already rigged toward the privileged and wealthy. These types of funds are important to me to provide a small hedge in my portfolio.

Jennifer Uracius Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I believe should be be able to choose my own public investments that are right for me and shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities such as, leveraged and inverse funds. I do not want regulators to have these measures imposed on me since I am capable of understanding the risks of these funds. Leveraged and inverse funds help me protect my investments and increase my returns and I use them on a very small portion of my total portfolio. Thanks for listening to my thoughts on this matter.

The public should be able to invest in leveraged and inverse funds, since this will permit them to hedge during times of market uncertainty and with future stock market declines. The excesses of the FED and US Government with over $10 Trillion increase in liquidity in the money supply over the past two years will lead to a great recession and major correction in the markets. The SEC proposed rule will ensure that the middle class investor is futher harmed by the US Gobernment.
