ENFORCEMENT!!! You can make all the rules in the world but until they are enforced they do no good. And when you do enforce the punishment needs to fit, those guys laugh at the piddly fines they're given! Close the loopholes, SSR is useless and darkpools need to go!
1) The current fines for illegal behavior is an absolute joke. If a HF gains $500 mil illegally and is only fined $250,000 that’s a joke of a fine. The fine should be equal to the amount that was illegally gained and possibly include jail time.

Current total short interest updated no less than once per day. Short position averages as well as amounts sorted by length held. Ie: 400k shorted shares still uncovered/ current position lifespan 24 days. Total disclosure of what exactly is being pushed through dark pools. It's on par with financial terrorism, fraud, theft, and the like. Absolutely disgusting how our regulators sit back and
Retail investors deserve proper and timely disclosure of information, the amount of Information that is misreported is incredibly misleading. Please do something about this broken system, institute changes that bring positive outlook to the future of the stock market, for all participants.
Good evening, I write to explain my frustration with the current market, some market makers as well as bad players. The United States stock market is currently very manipulated and it is becoming so obvious that I feel it is endangering the US stock market. Short selling has become a big problem for a few players out there. I believe they have made a lot of money and when caught the fines have
Appropriate reporting requirements on short sales, institutional short selling and dark pool sales reporting. Outdated reporting requirements allows for the current institutional deceitfulness in its short selling practices
