The CME issued a clarification on their recent margin requirements release. They are LOWERING initial margin requirements down to maintenance levels to bring the ratio down to 1:1 and not the other way around of raising maintenance to initial margin requirements.

We can all relax now and go back to sleep while we wait for the CME group to get someone who knows how to write in clear, understandable English!
