Timothy Hutchins Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Inverse and leveraged funds are an important part of the market as it allows retail investors like myself to take part in products that are normally not available to us. The ability to hedge against certain products, market segments, or scenarios should not be limited by a regulatory body. I agree the complexity of these funds and their risks should be well understood by anyone who invests in these funds, but that is the responsibility of the investor himself and not the regulatory body.

I oppose the regulations and restrictions that are being considered on my ability to invest my own money as I choose. I currently choose to invest in leveraged funds as a small percent of my portfolio and I should be able to continue to do so.

I do not want a regulator-imposed test to be required. I understand the transactions that I am making in my own accounts, but I worry that intentionally confusingly worded questions will keep certain people out.

I run a systematic quarterly rebalancing plan that is powered by leveraged ETFs. I know what I am doing. The proper use of these leveraged products is a key part of my financial plan.

These funds are important to me. They improve my performance over the long term. I am not engaged in reckless trading, I understand the effect of daily magnification of an indexs price movement, and I use this magnification to my advantage.

I do not want a third party evaluating my capability of managing these funds, and certainly do not want one preventing me from buying them.

It is very important to the freedom of our Country and the world to have every investment opportunities available to every individual matter what amount they can afford or choose to invest.
Even the greatest investments usually reserved for the world's richest and most powerful people should be opened for every individual to enter. Investments that require a great deal of money should be offered in instruments to purchase into a fund vehicle investment where large #'s of people grouping together should be able to access.
