Steven Groover Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I oppose changing regulations for levered ETFs/ETNs. The products are a preferred alternative to options or margin trading. This also creates a slippery slope for more regulatory overreach. It is already difficult enough to get approval to trade certain types of options. Many brokerage firms require certain experience, but how can you get experience if you arent allowed to trade them? New training can be gamed and people will develop workarounds.
