Michael Barnes Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Michael Barnes
N/A

It is important to me that the ability to trade and invest in all public funds, and that ability not be infringed upon by regulators

I am competent and understand the complexity and associated risks trading in leveraged and inverse funds and should not require any specialized training or special access permissions. I do not want my ability to invest in these funds to be limited in any manner.

Leveraged and inverse funds are an important strategy in my investment portfolio, including providing hedging as well as enhanced returned. These funds are limited to a small portion of my overall portfolio and investment strategies.

While oversight is appreciated in certain capacity it should not limit or infringe my ability to use inverse and leveraged funds.
