Regarding the proposed FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08, I strenuously object to ANY legislation restricting ANY investment I choose to make. I have my own best interests at heart -- regulators only want power and could care less whether I have access to the investments I need for my own personal financial security.

Hearing to Review Current Investigations and Regulatory Actions Regarding the Mutual Fund Industry: The Regulatory Landscape
I feel that I, not regulators, should have the right to choose the public investments that's best for my family. Publix investment s should be available to all the public, not just the privileged.

As a former financial advisor of 44 years (now retired), I would like to strongly protest additional regulatory restrictions on the use of leveraged or inversed funds, beyond the regulations that are currently in place. The new proposed regulations are an example of regulatory over-reach and are not needed.

They can be appropriate in certain circumstances, and we can decide on our own where we want to invest. Passing a test or any other special process will only favor the "big boys" over individual investors. I use leveraged funds as a small part of my overall
totally not needed. Public investments are public..Period! If I want to invest, it is My Responsibility to understand what I am doing. I am an active user of leveraged and inverse funds for hedging as well as another form of using risk. I also use currency, fixed income products and options.
