76 FR 77670 The CFTC is issuing this interpretation of the term "actual delivery" as set forth in section 2(c)(2)(D)(ii)(III)(aa) of the CEA, which subjects "retail commodity transactions" (leveraged transactions involving commodities other than foreign currency where such transactions do not result in actual delivery within 28 days or create an enforceable obligation to deliver) to the CEA.
