An individual investor making their own decisions is not the same as reckless wall street fund managers shorting with money they dont have. How dare the SEC come after retail traders when the clear issue is the wall street crooks. I trade for proprietary firms and i know what I am doing. It is apalling the Federal reserve is not being investigated and politicians are not being investigated,
We really need robust oversight if we are going to allow these reckless gamblers making the very markets. Selling something that doesn't exist. Creating fraudulent property. selling the same property to multiple investors. Shorting stocks that don't exist. Selling stocks that don't exist. This damages the faith of the people that markets are fair and safe. This hurts people. We
If it’s one thing that Melvin capital, citadel, point 72, Susquehanna and Virtu have taught me, in conjunction with the ongoing short selling sagas of certain meme stocks, is that if something isn’t done quickly an entire generation of investors will abandon the US stock market. We are very clearly an oligarchy, which is not only an insult to our founding fathers, but a travesty enacted upon
Hi, These detailed changes are very important for a lot of people. They would leave the market as a much more transparent way to invest as there would be less reliance on rumour surrounding primarily short interest and synthetic shares. The companies involved in these large amounts of share borrowing would be much more open to legal action as illegal activity would be more obvious. These changes
AMC has magically come off of the threshold list. A real time example of no transparency is the fact that there are many different speculations as to how that happens after being on it for 10 days with no price movement. (The bigger short laddering happened on Thursday and AMC was on the list on Friday still). It wasn't until late Friday it became apparent that it had been taken off. Is
I would like to see changes in the reporting of shorts taken place in real time, full transparency from all investors from insiders to retail investors (with an emphasis on hedge funds), discontinued use of algorithmic trading tactics, synthetic shares, loop holes used to create selling pressure, and any other market manipulation tactics. I want to see real action taken to prevent and correct
I feel that the current system of allowing Hedge funds, and wealthy investors to run rampant on Wall Street shorting stocks into oblivion only to slight the retail investor. Overleveraging themselves into positions based on pride and ego and then expecting the American Taxpayer to foot the bill when they go bankrupt and lose people's retirement and 401k is absolutely appalling. Selling
I think fines should be raised. All short sales should be reported to you bu the end of each day and made public just like when you buy a share. Enforse FTD purchases upon noncompliance within 2 settlement days. I think it’s unfair that things are not more transparent. It’s our money our shares that are loaned out without permission. Please raise fines so they think twice before illegal things
I’m not educated nor do I speak/write English well. But the way the stock market works, it seem that the rich have a different rules while retail have very limited tools. Why are they allowed to short stocks without reporting? Why are they allowed to manipulate prices via dark pools? It’s like we are watching a game of football, betting which sides win, but retail only see 25% of the field while
Please help restore faith and integrity to a damaged, corrupt, and dishonest market where large firms cripple the domestic and foreign investor thru clandestine operations of misinformation. WE NEED TO HAVE VERY SPECIFIC AND HONEST REPORTING OF SHORT POSITIONS. WE NEED BLOCKCHAIN TECHNOLOGY TO BRING BACK CLARITY! THIS IS A MUDDLED POND OF FILTH AND DISHONESTY. My Grandfather did not fight in
