Hello FINRA, I saw you are looking for comments on 21-19, regarding short positions. As I see it, the current US market is full of nothing but fraud, with the regulatory agencies being complicit. They are complicit through their complacency, with years of unchecked fraud and market manipulation through naked short selling by large hedge funds like Citadel and Susquehana being allowed to happen
Short selling restrictions. They should be forced to cover all short positions weekly if not daily. Market makers and hedge funds should not have the ability to short during pre or after market while most retail investors and the apps used are shackled to not being allowed to buy. Hedge funds should have to report daily their short positions and accurately, they should not be allowed to police
Dark Pools are becoming an overwhelmingly corrupt and manipulative way for large companies to affect market prices, especially of influential stocks. There should at least be some kind of volume threshold; when 70 percent of one stocks volume is going through dark pools, that's a huge problem.
No more private dark pools ( aka Citadel Connect ) that are insulated from FIRNA. No more naked shorting. Transparent share pricing within dark pools.
What are you people worried about what the retail investors think about short interest now for? This is all a big scam. All the major parts of the government "watchdogs" haven't done a [REDACTED] think. What makes you people think "We" think you all will do a [REDACTED] thing?? It's all wrong and you all know it!! Stop letting these hedge funds break the [REDACTED]
Why are companies still able to abuse dark pools? How can there be an overwhelming amount of purchases for a stock and yet the price is going down? The abuse is absolutely clear....
Investigate the corrupt hedge fund Citadel, involved in manipulating AMC stock.
The US stock market is one of the most corrupt organizations in the world. The SEC only protects Wall Street at the expense of the public. Laws that were created in 2008 are blatantly broken every day. Felonies are committed against retail investors and no regulatory institutions do anything about it. Why make more laws? Why pretend FINRA or any other agency protects the best interest of the
Anything and everything related to short positions, including synthetic or naked shorts should be made as transparent as possible, as soon as possible. No more shuffling around FTD's, no more short ladder attacks, no more waiting days/weeks for the data to be published. Level the playing field for all.
Outlaw all dark pools, synthetic shorts, and fail to delivers, or at the bare minimum require them all to be reported in realtime publicly. These are the bare minimum clear steps needed, or further info exposing the depth of corruption will be leaked, inevitably leading to global financial collapse.
