I have used leverage index mutual funds and ETF's as part of my investing methodology for the past 15 years. I understand the downside as well as the upside potential. Making these funds unavailable or difficult to purchase would severely limit my investing success.

I have been trading for many years and use the pro shares option To balance my long positions. As a retail investor it is fair For me to have the same options as the institutional big guys.

I'm starting to see a trend with our government officials trying to regulate what we can and cannot do with our hard working earned money and what little of it most of us have now because of what they've put us through in the past 3 years!!

I AM CURRENTLY AN OPTION BUYER AND SELLER AND SUPPORT THE REQUIREMENT OF EITHER TAKING A TEST TO ASSESS THE KNOWLEDGE THE INVESTOR HAS/HAS NOT ACQUIRED OR POSSESSES ON THE VARIOUS STRATEGIES IN OPTIONS TRADING TO ENSURE THE INVESTOR HAS THE KNOWLEDGE NEEDED TO HANDLE THE CONSEQUENCES AND RESPONSIBLITITIES ADEQUATELY.

Regarding Regulatory Notice #22-08:
I am very much AGAINST the proposal to remove or restrict my access to tools that I use to maintain and enhance my financial security such as leveraged and inverse ETFs.
The fund families and brokerage houses themselves do a very good job of explaining the risks of these products. I have relied on these tools for years in conjunction with volatility-based trailing stops to manage my securities portfolio with great success.

Dear FINRA:
I want to express in the strongest terms my objection to and disappointment over what's being proposed. I own TBT and it has been enormously helpful to me especially in this period of sharply rising interest rates. Investors are sophisticated today and to prevent them from buying what are essentially hedging/loss mitigating vehicles prevents us from hedging our fixed income portfolios, which is unacceptable! Same applies to a broad range of "complex" products! Please drop this bad idea.

You have no right to regulate any investment options. This is an assault on free democracy and markets instead regulate politicians and set up term limits

Please. I beg you. We, the public, are not your children. Please stop treating us as such.

If we have funds sufficient to invest, then we have shown that we have sufficient wherewithal to read and understand a contract. Let us.

Right or Wrong...I would like to make my own investment
decisions. .Success or failure is a learning experience.
My $$$$...my choice.

I oppose limitations on my investments. I believe it is an investors right to freely access the entirety of the public securities markets without arbitrary restrictions.
