FINRA 21-19 represents a ground shaking step towards improving the transparency and ultimately the freedom of the United States' market. Up until now, FINRA's archaic short interest reporting standards have facilitated exploitative and irresponsible market practices that threaten both free competition and the stability of the market. Recognizing the abuse behind intransparent reporting
Hi, Please solve all the [REDACTED] regarding naked short sales, darkpools, FTD's, short ladder attacks, marketmakes and hedgefunds beeing owned by the same entities and so on.

I support the changes and request for more transparency in our financial ecosystem, especially around naked short selling.
Good Morning, and thank you for allowing me to comment on the proposed changes to SI reporting. First and foremost in order to make an educated decision in my investments, i believe that SI should be reported DAILY.
