Richard Lemke Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

This spring I have been buying Puts on the TLT which is a triple leveraged product on the 20 year treasuries. I have also been buying out right the TBT which is the triple leveraged inverse of the 20 year treasuries. After watching my balances rise I started tracking the increase in my stock portfolio. On 4/9/2022 my balance was $57,497.57 on 4/15/2022 it was $59,457.61 on 4/22/2022 it was $59,097.64 and last week it was $60,149.59. If our economy is a free enterprise system why should my ability to see the rise in interest rates and realize a profit be restricted?
