Apr 23, 2021 at 10:40 comment added Bob Baerker A bank that accepts securities as collateral for a loan would probably expect that the value of the marginable securities would be constant so that collateral would remain. They would not likely care whether one owned $25k of IBM or $25k of Proctor and Gamble. A brokerage firm wouldn't care in the slightest because Reg T margin is mathematical not content driven (one marginable security is just as good as another marginable security for meeting the maintenance requirement).
