As a small retail investor investing for me and my families future I’m glad to hear that sunlight is finally leaking into the shorting faculties of our market. Accurate and honest short interest reporting helps reassure me as an individual investor that larger institutions aren’t abusing gaps in reporting to get an unfair advantage and add instability and volatility to our markets.

FINRA 21-19 is a much-needed update. The integrity of the US market has clearly been stressed to the point of disaster, owing in large part to systemic risk established under the regulatory authority of FINRA's antiquated short interest reporting regulation.

As a retail investor, I think it is so important to get accurate data. With the amount of fines and rules that have been broken by brokers, we cannot allow for a self-reporting system to continue. We need massive overhauls in our system and it starts with having accurate information, especially when it comes to short interest.

FINRA 21-19 is a long overdue change. It is clear that the integrity of the United States market has been strained to the edge of disaster, in large part due to systemic risk developed under the regulatory authority of FINRA's outdated short interest reporting policy. While many of the policies mentioned in Regulatory Notice 21-19 address the general breadth of exploitable and ineffective reporting, they also leave significant specific gaps that could compromise the entirety of 21-19's purpose.

Close dark pools and cancel shorting stocks it is unfair to retail investors and the companies that are going out of business. This system is rigged and unfair to the investors and worker. We demand change, how is this even possible? If it wasnt for the greed of SHF , the rest of the world would've never uncovered this.

FINRA 21-19 is something this country has needed for a long time -- financial institutions, hedge funds and the like need to be better regulated. I didn't know a lot about the market before this year, but what I have learned is that there are too many loopholes, and a lack of enforcement of existing regulations, that allows big players to make money at everyone else's expense. Synthetic shorts are essentially a way for institutions to print their own money, and forcing these same institutions to show their hand I think will greatly decrease that behavior.
