I definitely do not want FINRA to make any changes to Proposed Rule #22-08. Public traded funds need to remain public. This almost reminds me that I may not be ELITE enough to participate in what has always been available to the public. The thought of being tested to see if I know enough about these funds is ludicrous. I don't believe that FINRA should be awarded this kind of control over

Investing in leveraged and inverse funds is an integral part of my investment strategy and I do it recognizing that there
Individual investors should be free to make their own investment choices in well regulated markets. Taking away or making it more difficult to invest in leveraged and inverse financial products could drive investors away from regulated markets and subject them to increased fraud.
