We should be able to choose the public investments that are right for us and our family. And public should be treated equal, public investment should be available to all of the public not just the privileged.
We should not go through any special process like passing a test before we can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am using leveraged fund to gain exposure to
To whom it may concern,
I request you do NOT add new requirements or restrictions to those funds deemed "complex." The term itself can be vague at best and requiring consumers to jump through arbitrary hoops still doesn't reduce the risk of harm in any way, but it could potentially exclude individuals from benefiting from their added diversification.

I oppose the restrictions trying to be imposed by FINRA related to FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08.
It should be my decision to choose the public investment that is right for me. Public investments should be just that, available to the public not just the privileged. Leave the publics rights alone and allow us to choose what is the best investment for ourselves. I shouldn't have to go
Eliminating the leveraged ETFs from the choices of investment vehicles is the wrong decision. If the leveraged ETFs are volatile, how about the individual securities, mutual funds and options.

Quote "important regulatory concerns arise when investors trade complex products without understanding their unique characteristics and risks. Like complex products, trading in options may pose risks if investors do not have the financial experience to understand options and options trading strategies" my comments: [1] risks of trading complex products won't change no matter traded
I have been investing for many years and it is just un-american to try to stop normal up standing American citizens from the right to make their own investment decisions.

All investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged super-rich who then take advantage of the
Most people completely understand all the risks inherent in leveraged and inverse funds. Brokerages provide notices for people who do not understand them as a warning (which should be enough!) and it should be an investors responsibility to know what they are investing into. I hold a PhD and know the risks inherent in these types of investments and I think the proposed rule is unnecessary and
Central bankers and government deficit spending have created once unimaginable asset bubbles, risk, and volatility.
To navigate these treacherous conditions, you need to have advanced tools and investments, and leveraged and inverse ETFs are part of that toolkit.
