Investments.

Investments.—(a) No Government servant shall speculate in investments. For purpose of this rule, the habitual purchase and sale of securities of notoriously fluctuating value shall be deemed to be speculation in investments. (b) No Government servant shall make or permit any member of his family to make any investments likely to embarrass or influence him in the discharge of his official duties. Note:—If any question arises, as to whether a security or an investment is of the nature referred to above, the decision of the Government thereon shall be final.
