If you look at my investments over the last 2 decades, through bear and bull markets, you will see that my leveraged ETFs have far outperformed my other investments. I would be much worse off if I was unable to buy these ETFs. Please, no changes necessary.
Regarding Notice #22-08. As an investor I responsibly use leveraged ETFs as an investment strategy balancing different asset classes for long term growth. I'm well aware of the large fluctuations and it's a non-issue because I'm educated on the way the ETF works. It would be highly restrictive for the SEC or Finra to remove an option that individuals can and do use
Please do not remove the ability for me to trade leveraged funds. I am aware of the risks involved and am willing to take those risks for the potential gains. I shouldn't have to pass a test or have a certain amount of money or go through any other process to be able to trade these funds. I do not need the government to tell me how to do my investing! Thank you.
I am fully aware of the risks I take with my investments. I do not need the Government to protect me from myself. DO NOT REMOVE 3X BULL/BEAR ETS's FROM THE INVESTMENT CHOICES!!!!

I use leveraged and inverse funds to diversify my portfolio in ways that order public
It will be totally unfair and extremely biased to regulate investors on how and where they choose to invest. My brokerage already issues warnings before investing in certain funds so your interference is unnecessary. I'm not a licensed investor but I am seasoned and investing assists me in building my retirement nest egg and also setting my daughter up for the future. It is my right to
To whom it may concern at FINRA,
Please do not limit small investors right and ability to invest in products that can help them during market fluctuations - like the last 18 months. Too many things in this country have already been closed off to all but the rich and privileged.
I have spent a lifetime learning about investing and am currently using several leveraged and inverse products to
I occasionally use various ETFS that short major indexes or multiply returns on major market ETFs such as the DOW, the NASDAQ 100 or the S&P 500.
I feel that it is a restriction of my ability to choose my personal risk levels if you place limitations on these financial instruments.
