Former US Commodity Futures Trading Commission (CFTC) chairperson Chris Giancarlo clarified in a post on the X platform that he is not running for the next Securities Exchange Commission (SEC) chairperson. He said that when he became the chairperson of the US Commodity Futures Trading Commission, he had cleaned up a lot of the "mess" of the current Securities Exchange Commission chairperson Gary Gensler, and now he does not want to do it again.
