James Maikowski Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

JAMES MAIKOWSKI
N/A

Please allow investors to make their own decisions on funds and securities they choose to invest in. I have personally been making my own investment decisions for several decades now. Leveraged investments are important to my strategies as I am able to stay ahead of market conditions (like inflation) vs. barely breaking even with non-leveraged investment options. Having to prove my means and abilities are contrary to a free capital markets mindset that each individual should have as a self-evident right. Investors of leveraged securities already need to read and sign disclosures acknowledging their understanding of the fund goals and risks - this is enough law and further blanket "protection" with more laws and regulations is overstepping and unnecessary.
