I wholly and completely oppose any and all regulation that will take away from my ability to manage my finances in a manner that is appropriate to my level of comfort concerning risk and returns. Retail investors do not need to be saved from themselves. The proposed rules being considered are a simple tactic aiming to keep the rich, rich and the the poor, poor.
This proposal will take the
I, not regulators, should be able to choose the investments that are right for me. Investments should be available to all of the public, not just the elite.
I shouldnt have to go through special processes, 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.

Hi,
I've always taken personal responsibility for my retirement account and investments. I don't want to have to rely on others for my financial future that I've worked hard to secure. I really appreciate the ability to access and use complex financial tools in the form of simple trading instruments. I use leveraged, inverse and crypto funds regularly for trying to
Please do not restrict my usage of specialized market products. I use leveraged products to reduce the risks of my family's investments in many other securities. In times of war, such as now, and high market volatility, such as now, and high inflation, such as now, and irregular FED activity, such as now, I need these leveraged products to secure the future of my family. I am just an
This country was built in taking risks, and learning from them. If people are stopped from investing in certain securities, sure they may be saved from one bad trade. But that knowledge is incredibly valuable, and the money they can make with that knowledge is worth the sting.
I invested in triple index securities when I was 18, working a factory job. It was Christmas when there was that pretty
Please please please FINRA, please do not restrict me and my family from investing in leveraged and inverse funds. I am now making very nice profits due to these particular stocks / funds. I understand the risk involved and feel I should not have to go through passing a test or any other special process in order to invest in these public securities. They provide me the security with hedging my
The idea of putting restrictions on Inverse/Leveraged securities is just a bad idea. 1) These instruments are not that complicated - people can understand them....Typically they are based on indexes (e.g., 2X SPX etc.), that's easier to understand than the inner-workings of any individual company! 2) FINRA, I believe, already requires brokers to display warnings - that's good enough. A
It is important that the pending increased regulation of "complex products" is not passed or put into place by FINRA.
Products deemed as such as used by investors such as myself after careful study, constitute a very small portion of my or my family office's net worth/liquidity, but present a vital tool in risk managment and/or achieving more beta in certain investing
I am writing to oppose any further regulation on leveraged and inverse investment products. Individual investors like myself have access to prospectus documents, we can read how the product operates, and we know that all investments in the stock and bond markets come with risks. Who is clamoring for this regulation, besides regulators? You might prevent 1% of investors from making a mistake, but
I am strongly opposed to the proposed FINRA Regulatory Notice #22-08, that will limit my ability to buy leveraged and inverse funds. I should be able to choose my public investments without interference from regulators. I am more than capable of understanding the risks involved with leveraged and inverse funds. I do not need regulators looking over my shoulder, or telling me what I can, or
