Regulators do not know what is in my best interest better than I do, and should not seek to override my judgement in financial matters.
I am opposed to further regulations to restrict or disqualify me from trading L&I Funds. I am aware of the high risk and short term volatility to valuations of these funds and the need for daily if not hourly monitoring and evaluation.
My brokerage firm, Fidelity, already provides a popup warning statement for me on these funds and it has been effective in causing second thoughts and
I disagree emphatically with limiting retail investors access to leveraged products and the inverse leveraged products. If one educates oneself, these products can be a highly effective means of benefiting from volatility in certain sectors.

While I do believe that offering education on the risks, as well as risk mitigation strategies, would be beneficial for traders, I do not believe that extra layers of bureaucracy and testing will create better or safer traders, and will simply reduce the
