Kasey Mullen Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

Kasey Mullen
N/A

Strong enforcement of illegal naked shorting. Penalties should be more than a slap on the wrist, or nothing at all. It's illegal, don't allow it. Any company caught naked short selling should be prohibited from trading on exchanges. Start out with a 1-week ban on all trading for that company for a first offense, and increase the time for each offense thereafter with a final penalty of being kicked off all exchanges. Three times and your out! Naked shorting is illegal. Have a zero-tolerance policy.
