Christopher Deimel Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Christopher Deimel
N/A

I oppose the proposed additional regulations for investing in leveraged and/or inverse funds. I am fully capable of understanding the risks involved and currently use some of these investments to hedge my long positions during the recent and ongoing market downturn.

In fact, without such investment vehicles being available, my financial position would be much more deteriorated than it is using such strategies.

Further, any "waiting period" would diminish the usefulness of such investment vehicles given the recent market volatility. Markets often move too fast to make any waiting period useful and would, in fact, be counter productive to use and purpose of inverse/leveraged investments.
