The reporting of "short interest" should be accurate! The everyday, retail investor should have access to ever piece of information the Hedge Funds and Market Makers have. If company is under attack by one of these Hedge Funds, we should be able to obtain real time info we can make educated decisions on where you are putting our money and not get caught holding the back when said
I have been trading stocks for the better part of 8years, I feel like we need the utmost transparency with regards to short interest data. I do not understand how a stock like AMC keeps getting hammered down or trades sideways on good news as well as millions of investors holding and buying more on the dips. There is definitely something sketchy going on, and unless there is more transparency I
Short interest, shares on loan, order flow data/routing, and all other information available to institutional investors should be available to other market participants to promote true market equality. The same sentiment holds true for the timeliness in the availability of reporting data. The current market structure fails to protect self-directed investors from market manipulation and fraudulent
Myself and countless other retail investors believe it is long overdue to implement the changes currently being considered. We believe a market can only be truly free if it is also free from manipulation. Increasing the transparency of short positions and ensuring access to accurate data is integral for a free market. Thank you for giving us a moment to speak our minds on an issue that we believe
Please, I am asking for a more transparent and up to date form of reporting short interest and dark pool information. All of these ideas listed above are what I want. The fact that large players in the market have info that retail investors do not, creates an unfair advantage. All we are asking for is transparent, accurate, and immediate information, along with the timely enforcement of rule
Creating synthetic shares is the same as counterfeiting. Put some teeth in your fines. Rigt now, the fines are so small, it's just a cost of doing business to these big companies. Do better at investigating nakedshorting and up the fines. All shorting, no matter what exchange, should be reported and made public. Get ridof dark pools. And for pete's sake, it's 2021. Why isn't
I would like to see a more transparent market with instant short position reporting to the general public. I would also like to see instant reporting of any failure-to-delivers. I would like to know the volume from each market even the dark pools to understand the price change. I think this information should be public to any retail investor instantly and easily with no delays. I believe this
Hi Finra. How are you today? Reason I'm writing this is to ask you to please look into hedge funds that are illegally shorting and manipulating the stock market. For far too long these Hf are hurting the market. As an investor I just want a fair market to invest and I am looking at the regulators like the Finra and the SEC to restore the integrity of the stock market. You are my only hope of
It’s sad to see laws being broken and nothing being done to bring justice to the people being taken for granted and used. Billionaires should not be allowed to get away with this kind of nonsense theft. Where is the rule of law? Allowing this type of theft is slowly unraveling our society and has very dangerous implications. Companies are going bankrupt due to companies like citadel shorting
As a layman, I find the practice of share lending to be disappointing. Many people trust their brokers and relevant institutions to act in ways that aren't detrimental to their portfolio. Lending shares (even from ETFs) to satisfy the borrowing needs of short sellers? This needs to end. Retail's confidence in US capital markets has all but evaporated at this point. So really, things
