I am opposed to regulation #22-08.
I should be about to make my own decisions about my investments, not regulators. I can read & understand the notices that are provided when I choose an investment and should not be required to take a test to prove it.
I use inverse funds as well as other instruments and it will be detrimental to my portfolio if I am unable to use them.
I ask that
Leverage ETF is like a high growth stock. It makes no sense to require investment to pass a test to trade or even hold the leverage ETF.
Netflix (NFLX) is a good example of a high growth stock. It was one of the best performing stocks for over 2 decades, but in just 5 short months, it drops from $700.99 on 11/7/2021 to $199.87 today's closing (5/3/2022) or down over 70%.
I should be able to choose the public
investments that are right for you and your family.
Public investments should be available to all of the public,

like passing a test before you can invest in public securities,
like leveraged and inverse funds.

This rule should not be allowed to pass. It further infringes upon retail investors rights and access to free and fair markets. By limiting access to markets by tests that traders must pass or limiting to high wealth individuals is discrimination against all investors in a free market.

I understand the risks of investing in leveraged and inverse funds so I only invest a limited part of my overall portfolio in those funds. I do not like to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities, like leveraged and inverse funds. I do not like any restrictions on my right to invest in those funds.
I not regulators ,should be able to choose the public investments that are right for me and my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged. I shouldn't have to go through any special process like passing a test before I can invest in public securities. I am capable of understanding my investments and their risks. I do not need these measures
Each investor should be able to choose the public investments that are right for them. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged ones. No one needs to pass the tests or demonstrate special knowledge to buy/sell these leveraged securities. these are useful tools in protecting the portfolio from market volatility and we should be free to use them however
The federal government has a fiduciary responsibility to its citizens.

ProShares sent me a share holder notice claiming that FINRA was going to take away the rights of investors, when in fact FINRA is doing their duty to protect U.S. citizens.
