To whom it may concern,
I am a retail investor with over 20 years of investment experience. I am a software engineer, and generally a nerd that tries to built expertise in anything I have interest in.
I understand the risks involved in the use of leveraged funds, and they are vital to some of the strategies I employ. One of my strongest portfolios is currently based on Ray Dalio's All
To FINRA administration: I OPPOSE the FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08, which would limit my right to invest in inverse and leveraged funds which would threaten my financial objectives as an investor. I have been trading securities and funds in my personal and retirement accounts for over 30 years and should be able to choose the vehicles which I feel are appropriate for my portfolio and am aware
I am very upset to learn of this proposal. Such ETF's give me a compact way to invest in a group of securities vs. individually, as PART of my portfolio, however I do BOTH, also buy individual securities. I'm very capable capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks and do not need or want to have too pass some test to prove it that is so insulting and invasive!
Dear FIRA regulators, the effort to limit the ability for average Americans to enjoy the fruits of investing in these instruments is yet another example of Government overreach.

I oppose requirements of regulator-imposed tests, sharing private financial information, obtaining special permission, and any and all other restrictions on leveraged/
From my understanding, public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. This is my right to choose and invest all types of public investments as I want to, not being forced to invest on the selected section of the market.
I shouldnt have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse
While agree with the spirit of this proposed rule, in that investors who are at risk of being taken advantage of must be protected. I am concerned that the implementation and interpretation of this rule may negatively impact retail investors who are investing for themselves away from retirement accounts. I personally know many individuals who opened a Robinhood account during the pandemic and
HI, I have been a private investor for over 30 years starting when I was in the 6th grade. I am a huge proponent of freedom and self-education. I believe that the general public should have a right to invest in the same funds as the privileged without having any required tests or special processes which only serve as roadblocks to wealth creation. I am capable of making my own decisions when it
