SEF: Week 13

Quiet week, and as for myself, I am enjoying a holiday at the beach for a few days.  That doesn’t stop the machine from cranking out numbers.  See for yourself.

CARTOON

So I had some time with the kids over the break.  My son Henry likes to make cartoons, so I spent some time online making my own.  I wanted to summarize how the CFTC defines a “US Person” for its various rules and mandates:
