Cecilia Cavazos Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I use these so-called "complex" products to hedge my longs in various accounts at certain times I judge market risk to be high. How am I supposed to hedge my IRA without leveraged/inverse products or options? Is there some reason FINRA doesn't want me to hedge against a possible decline in the value of my long holdings? I am a very experienced investor, I'm a big girl and I'm well aware of the risks of these products and investments in general. Not that that is anybody's business, nor should I have to justify myself to anyone. I'm opposed to any rule that would limit my ability to use any investment option, including options and leveraged/inverse funds. Frankly, I'm shocked that this is even being considered.
