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to the edge of disaster, in large part due to systemic risk developed under the regulatory authority of FINRA's outdated short interest reporting policy.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.

FINRA 21-19 is a direly needed change. The US market is in dire straights due to FINRA's inability to adequately police short interest. There are still gaps, however. It is ESSENTIAL for the restoration of both the stability of the US markets and the confidence of the investors within it that ANY and ALL regulation changes regarding short interest reporting be effective in EVERY known circumstance where effective short positions, synthetic or not, can go unaccounted for for ANY length of time greater than any other short position reporting deadline.

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to the edge of disaster, in large part due to systemic risk developed under the regulatory authority of FINRA's outdated short interest reporting policy. I understand FINRA is attempting to create a fairer and transparent market but without strict reporting policies in place you will inevitably give rise to loopholes and further manipulation.

Short selling is an unnecessary practice and should be completely illegal. Blah blah blah “it prevents muh bubble”. [REDACTED]. We’re in a bubble already. The entire market is a sham to funnel money from poor people into the hands of [REDACTED] bankers and techno oligarchs who want to enslave us. Short selling is basically the equivalent of a [REDACTED] light switch. All short sellers should be publicly humiliated [REDACTED]. Pure evil.

I’m a 35 year old freelancer. I think on average I work 80+ hours a week to make a comfortable middle class income. I don’t resent anyone for it. Like many others, I took an interest in investments more than ever throughout covid and I truly believed I had an equal opportunity to succeed or fail in the market. Facts are facts- I don’t have an equal opportunity whatsoever. What is the point of FINRA or the SEC if we can watch a couple companies print millions of fake shares in order to make our investments worth less? We literally watched it live.

Its a start and a move in the correct direction. I support the implementation of this providing it is all publicly reported at the same time industry gets the data. However, it doesn't go far enough to deal with the years long joke that is FINRA "playing a critical role in ensuring the integrity of America’s financial system"... maybe the cronyism can stop for all of 2 minutes and some common [REDACTED] sense take place.
