As more and more retail investors are joining the market, many of them are learning that they don't have access to the same information or ability to perform actions within the market that some of the huge institutions and market makers do. Naked shorting, dark pool trading, payment for order flow, etc. are all things that when examined at
Raising the difficulty of market manipulation via naked shorting and rapid trading has become a national mandate since the Robin Hood event.

I don't believe FINRA even has the capabilities to create a fair and free market as what we have is the literal opposite. If you do, no one has seen it.
