  3. The #SEC, which oversees the >$100 trillion US #capital #markets, is under pressure from #Trump to fire staff & slash costs. Agency leaders have been told to submit recommendations for steep cuts to the admin. Some of the government's cost-cutting efforts have involved the new Department of Govt Efficiency, or #DOGE, & #Musk.

    The SEC is embroiled in litigation against Musk for allegedly violating #securities #regulations.

  4. The plan is the latest in a series of changes at the top US #markets regulator since #Republicans took the helm at the commission & is part of a broader effort by Republican President Donald #Trump, alongside *special* adviser & #billionaire #ElonMusk, to #purge the federal workforce.

    The people spoke on condition of anonymity as the discussions are not public. A spox for the #SEC declined to comment.
