Martin Szudarski Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Martin Szudarski
N/A

I have used ETF's that allow me to invest in movements in the to corn, soybeans, and oil for years. These allow a traditional investor to invest in a commodity without having to be a commodity trader or a holder of the actual commodity.

I LOVE funds that allow me to invest in LONG or SHORT positions against the DOW or Nasdaq indexes. This allows me to make money in any market condition.

Why would you limit my ability to make money under any market condition and with any commodity? The risk is the same when investing on stocks or other funds.

If the government is going to take away my ability to make money in these ways, they will have to pay me to not invest in these funds when I would otherwise have made money.
