We need a free and fair market. Meaning “rules and regulations” that actually work. Rules and regulations that truly hold people accountable. Not turning a blind eye or slapping cheap fines on those that break said “rules or regulations.”
I would like all sides to play by the rules. I think players that go short have the right to do so but should have to disclose their postions just like going long through a 13f or what have you. Every share in existence should be able to be tracked to every person that owns said shares, it is already being done in cyrpto. Overall an emphasis on transparency in the market needs to be better.
Dear Committee, While efforts to improve transparency are appreciated, I believe there is no mention of dark pools. There needs to be more transparency on shorting going on behind the curtains. Moreover, shorting needs to be regulated. There is certainly no need to short a business if there is no evidence of foul play by the businesses. Running businesses into the ground doesn't allow fair
Good day, There is brazen and blatant market manipulation being done by big investors to drive down prices of securities such as AMC and GME, including practices such as naked shorting, ladder attacks, the spreading of misinformation through media outlets, etc. As to the short interest, what is reported is not accurate, as much of what takes place is on "dark pools" and is made of of

Why do you have rules if you aren't going to implement them. Protect the retail investor not the big companies.
I strongly believe financial institutions should be required to report their short positions daily. The problem of naked shorting (and related naked calls/puts) has turned Wall Street into one of the largest havens for fraud in the world, and it puts companies that otherwise would have a fighting chance at great risk of being ruined by bad actors.
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
