I am contacting you to express my opposition to notice 22-08. I have been investing in leveraged funds for well over a decade, and find it inappropriate for you to limit my freedom to do so without undue interference from you. These are my assets, and I believe it is well within the scope of my prerogatives to decide how to invest them.
In particular, I find it offensive that I should have to
We not regulators should be able to choose the public investments that are right for us and our family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
We shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before we can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. We are capable of understanding leveraged and
As a stay-at-home mom, I use certain leveraged funds (like UPRO and TQQQ) to enhance my portfolio and contribute to the financial needs of my family, all while being able to spend time with and raise my children. These are only a portion of our overall portfolio. I have done the research and feel that I am capable of making all the investment decisions for my family and should not be subjected to

I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks.
As an individual investor, I will OBJECT too much regulatory requirements on investors. It will NOT protect small investors, instead of creates confusion and overhead (which will be added to investors in some way). Most stocks aren't less risky than leveraged and inverse funds are.
Any proposal that testing specialized investment knowledge, demonstrate a high net worth and go though a
I should be able to choose the investments that are right for me. Public investments should be available to all of the public. I do NOT need you to deny me investments that you think may harm me, (they may not) simply because I didn't pass your test. The leveraged and inverse funds that I can invest in are tools that I use to further my investment. You should not deny me that ability.

PLEASE...Do not punish educated investors by enacting the severe regulations which you are proposing in regards to inverse and leveraged ETFs. I have used these very successfully for many years. They compose an integral part of my investment strategy primarily as a volatility nuetralizer and as a hedge against downside risk. To date, I've successfully avoided punishing 2022 loses-

I oppose restrictions to my right to invest. I do not believe any regulatory agent should be allowed to restrict any portion of the public from purchasing public investments. I do not believe one should have to pass a proficiency test to be allowed access to investing. Risk is an important component of any investment. Risk is not something that can be regulated away.
