Dead SEC, I believe that, in the interests of the free traders of America, that proposed rule SR-OCC-2024-001 should be REJECTED. Free and fair markets require that balance in different sides of trades not be skewed by moving the goalposts, putting thumbs on scales, or decreasing margin requirements in times of elevated volatility. Price discovery needs to be a fair and unabridged process that is not determined by one or two small groups of people with, likely, their own interests in mind before those of the American people. With this in mind, I encourage you to uphold the integrity of the free American securities markets by REJECTING proposed rule change SR-OCC-2024-001. Thank you for taking the time to read this message and thank you for making the right decision, William Brown Production Manager, Marshallberg Farms
