Data transparency is a must of having reliability, responsibility, and accountability within in financial industry. Without the full faith and trust in a fair system, myself and other investors would see no reason to put our hard earned money at risk to the "Wall Street Boys Club". As such, all information about short sale positions, short interest, etc. must be publicly and freely
Hello Finra! , Thank you for listening to the people about these issues! we really need our voices heard since we might be a lot of individuals but we are not as organized as some big money entities are and we cant express ourselves in a very cohesive way but anyways. Please take a look into short selling taking place in $AMC & $GME and some others that i belive are being manipulated
Naked shorts should not exist at all. Citadel and other hedgefunds are creating shares, trading them in dark pools back and forth with each other, and in some cases they dump them back into the market to artificially suppress stock prices. They make millions selling off shares while trying to ruin companies. Why is this even allowed. As a regular person, I can’t make up items and sell them on
Anyone who has looked at the derivates market for $AMC and $GME knows that short interest is being aritfically brought down by the use of these options strategies. If the short interest was really as low as being reported by FINRA and others, we would not have outrageous borrow rates and a continuing avalanche of FTD's. When will we have transparency in our financial markets? "Synthetic
Its time for transparency in the market! Pfof should be a crime its a conflict of interest and not only that other coutries have banned this practice so why is it taking so much effort to discredit the retail investors beliefs! The fake news being spread about amc and many others is quite disturbing! If we never had a ceo who cared about his company we all would be at risk! This is something
I understand that short selling is viewed as important to the health of the stock market; however, when it is used to maliciously attack retail investors, it should in no way be legal. The existence of naked short selling remains a recurrent problem for many stocks, AMC and GME being two of the most notorious. If there is even the possibility of naked shorting, shorting should immediately be
In a fair and open market there should be transparency and a level playing field for all investors; be they retail or institutional. The # of shares shorted should be available IN REAL TIME throughout the trading day. Dark pool trading must be eliminated. We can clearly see that large institutions are buying massive quantities of AMC/GME stock (for example) on the dark pool and then flooding the
I am sick & tired of large hedge funds such as Citadel performing coordinated ladder attacks against GME & AMC, as well as others. Those two charts frequently pattern in lock step with each other. Investors know, as I assume FINRA & SEC does as well, that naked shorting is taking place on a grand scale. To make matters worse, the bulk of the short sales, particularly on
There is no reason all data from the stock market including short data isn’t transmitted in real time. This isn’t the 1920’s and also “family office” is a sham. It was created in the early 20th century and the rules governing them have never been updated. They should report like everyone else or be used as shells for market makers to hide short positions. Options should never be allowed to
I fully support this effort to improve short interest enhancements. When bad actors are allowed to create a synthetic share out of thin air through dishonesty and illegal activity, they pose the potential to put the entire financial system at risk. If "market makers" are allowed to break rules, including the creation of millions of fake shares, they are given the power to destroy
