Hi there,
I am writing in severe opposition to Regulatory Notice #22-08 which explores the possibility of a number of limitations and regulations on the common investor. This regulation is absurd and I am completely against it!
First, it is my right as a citizen of this country to invest my money as I wish. Only I can determine what is and isn't best for myself and my family financially

I oppose any restriction on individual investors use of inverse or leveraged ETFs. I personally have used inverse and leveraged ETFs to protect myself during periods of market volatility as a means to limit my downside risk while keeping invested in the market.

This is partially caused by the risks surrounding short interest reporting under the regulation of FINRA. Even though FINRA 21-19 focusses on a broader spectrum of ineffective reporting, the certain gaps in the 21-19 could
