All short positions should be reported on. #duh
Things FINRA should implement: 1. Automated daily reporting of short positions 2. Automated daily reporting of all trading in Dark Pools 3. Automated daily reporting of synthetic shares/naked shorting 4. FTD should be delivered T+2, no exceptions. 5. All data accessible to the public in real time. 6. Force all Market Makers to give retail investors routing options on trades. (option to have your
I personally believe that short interest data should be available live without any delays (i.e. T+2 settlement) and that ALL short interest data must be reported across the board. Additionally I believe that fines for illicit practices should be equal to no less than the profit of the particular trade PLUS an additional 10% in order to discourage the practice from happening again.
There isn’t ANY transparency within the market. Dark pools need to be GONE as they are being over used and abused.. SSR needs to be enforced much more strictly. FTDs need to be enforced without delay. And NAKED SHORTING is supposed to be illegal but is still being used only by hedge funds and market makers.. How is this a free market???!! The hedge funds leash is way too long. Nobody will trust
I cannot get a handle on short interest and am hoping to get reports out faster, in addition the penalty for not reporting short position is not working.

I honestly have been losing faith in our stock market in general and want to bring integrity back to our markets. If shares aren’t properly reported and have the ability to be manipulated on a mass scale then what’s the point of the every day investor even attempting to do anything?? My comment would be to enforce the law on ALL of us not just some. If naked shorting or selling of stocks they
Hello. I am a supporter of transparency within the stock market. I have found that there are certain holes in the current regulations that make it possible to conceal important and actionable information from the public. These include: The lack of requirements for disclosure of an entity's short positions The lack of daily (or instant if possible) updates as to the current short interest of
Here's what we need: FINRA is dedicated to protecting investors and safeguarding market integrity in a manner that facilitates vibrant capital markets. Every investor in America relies on one thing: fair financial markets.

Hello, I believe that this is a really important rule as we all know what can happen when shorts go unchecked. I understand the reason for shorting but when people get carried away, they can harm another company as a whole. I don't see how there could be any trouble making the info transparent to be able to keep a book on how many shorts are out on the market to avoid any issues of naked
