I hypotheses is

March 17 , 2023

ETFs, Banks and enterprises with rollover or option contracts / tokens / asset back securities where given 30-90 days by the CFTC and SEC potentially up to one year to refinance their contracts margin loans with Fed and Treasury loans

fed and treasury short term loans where given per the following program

And or

Reverse Repo Program

Now the question is

Who is going to provide margin loans to the enterprises after the period when the loan program ends also where the economy is having increased interest rates, deflated bond values and inflation for which the fed is trying to control

And thus Swap Contracts insurance will need to be paid if the underlying contracts default

Or the lack of margin loans will Soon have enterprises who hold tightly wound asset backed short contracts will be liquidated and these assets will need to be purchased and delivered to the opposite party
