Christopher Himmelheber Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Christopher Himmelheber
N/A

Limiting my ability to invest in leveraged instruments would be yet another exercise of a "Nanny State." It would also be a restriction of my Free Speech - just as much as restricting my ability to donate (or not) to your patron's re-election campaigns. Leveraged instruments are the key to my investment strategies and financial future. I use them to hedge my other investments. While they are a limited portion of my overall portfolio, they are critical to my strategies. Also, requiring that I take a financial literacy test is beyond patronizing, and would almost certainly be struck down in the inevitable lawsuits. If you try to implement these restrictions, there will be [REDACTED] to pay.
