William Church Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

The most effective form of government is the government that governs the least. With every additional bit of regulation, the regulations that matter become more diluted. Tread lightly, choose wisely ladies and gentlemen, especially when it comes to telling the populus where and how it may utilize it's monetary assets. If you didn't put in the work to acquire the earnings, how can you justify telling me how I spend them??

These recent weeks are en excellent example of why inverse funds should NOT be limited. Retail Investors like me who do their homework but have less access to sophisticated hedging strategies and expensive market research are able to use many these funds to protect ourselves. For example, I put on small positions in several unlevered inverse funds, reduced long positions, and have ridden out this storm basically flat while many of my friends with fee-collecting pro advisors and money managers have had large drawdowns.

whereas I, not distant technocrats to whom I am a mere data point, ought to choose which investments are correct for me and my current investing situation / strategy,
whereas I should be able to access any investment or type of publicly traded security without capricious and arbitrary restrictions imposed, including but not limited to having to pass a knowledge or means based test before being deemed worthy to use a particular investment strategy,
