There is no way that a changing of any governmental rule, on this high level is not without some sort of profitability in mind. I oppose this because I don't believe in making the Operations Clearing Corporations job easier in regards to margin requirements. If they change in any direction, it would be to keep margin reqs higher than they are now, as the number of failure to delivers is at an all time high. If they suffer with high volatility, raise their margin requirements, don't lower them. The idea that this is not being thought of by the sec is illogical. Private companies do not request rule changes unless they want more profit. In the specific case of volatility is because they *expect* more volatility, and want a way to profit through it. There wouldnt be as much volatility if the margin reqs were much higher than they are now, and lowering them would just be a hall pass to keep being sub par operator. I oppose this.
