William Marchand Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I use leveraged funds to give a little spark to my otherwise strictly dividend portfolio. Always less than 5% of portfolio value. I also use them for short periods to enhance returns on a sector that is in current demand. They are always used in small proportion and for short periods of time.
Been using them for years. I like them and believe I should have the choice to use them. Let the buyer beware!

Don Crumpacker Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

I use leveraged funds in a an investing plan in which I am fully aware of risks. The government should NOT place any restrictions on the choices of individual investors as incorporating leveraged investments into my plan is my choice and I am under no obligation to do so. If the government desires to meddle in personal affairs, how about educating people about financial programs, investing and responsible spending instead of restricting my ability to make my own choices.

Lei Xu Comment On Regulatory Notice 22-08

Hi,

I am very concerned about the FINRA Regulator notice #22-08 with the following reasons:

(1) I should be able to choose the public investments that are right for my family. Public investments should be available to all of the public, not just the privileged.
(2) I am capable of understanding leveraged and inverse funds and their risks. Unnecessary measures and extra requirements actually causes more risks.
(3) Leveraged and inverse funds are important for my investment strategies.
