Sidney Noe Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I am very concerned about recent intentions to limit the publics ability to invest in leveraged and/or inverse funds. No one knows better what investments are right for me than me. I should not be required to prove myself to anyone before being allowed to invest my hard earned money where I see fit. The whole idea of the nanny state where the government needs to take care of me is extremely offensive. These products serve a valuable role during different market conditions. If anything, more financial products should be made available to all, not the other way around.

Leveraged products provide investors the ability to invest without taking on risky margin positions that could lead to potential liquidation scenarios and interest charges. These products also allow investors to assume inverse positions without taking a traditional short position. These products allow investors to participate in more investment strategies and they also assist with diversification.
