Randall Burkhart Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08
Randall Burkhart
N/A
Sir/Madam,
Please do not restrict my ability to make investments in the stock market however I choose to make them. By limiting my access to inverse and leveraged funds, you are effectively reducing my ability to improve the outlook for my retirement future. I am aware of the risks involved, but these risks are, in my mind, no greater than the risk already inherent in the market itself, but with a shorter timespan for profit or loss. As an investor, I am already well aware of that risk, and feel I do not need a government entity to take that opportunity away.
Please keep in mind, that by reducing my access to these investments, you are also limiting my ability to build my retirement. Not only would you be taking away a downside risk, you are also eliminating an upside opportunity, which would be very unfortunate for investors.
