Excuse me, could you please elaborate on the concept of a
Leveraged LDI? I'm not entirely clear on how it works and how it differs from traditional investment strategies. Specifically, how does leveraging come into play, and what are the potential risks and benefits associated with it? I'm particularly interested in understanding the financial instruments and mechanisms involved in this type of investment.

The use of leverage magnifies both gains and losses, making it a high-risk, high-reward strategy.
