Retail investors are already at a distinct dis advantage as far as technology and ability to manipulate like the large investors, short sales should be reported daily and the fines for manipulation should be more than a slap on the wrist where the large investors weigh fines versus profit and laugh as they take the fine Retail investors need a closer fair field of play or you will see the stock market as unfair and just buy crypto or bury gold in the back yard...please make this fair or eventually the "dumb money" will just walk away and devest from even IRAs and 401ks

As an individual investor I do believe that the changes proposed for Rule 4560 regarding Short Interest Position Reporting Enhancements would be beneficial and support transparency for the individual investor. I am delighted to see these new proposals and would like to see them put into effect as soon as possible. Thank you.

I have been invesing since 1960 in 8th grade when I bought 1 shares of US Seel and 2 shares of Poliroid. US Steel didnt turn out to well but on 2 shares of Poliroid which spit 4 for 1 and then 2 for 1 made about $600 on $120 investment. I have been investing eversince thru corrections , Bull runs and crashes. In the 2008 financial crisses lost 90% because HF's and banks stacked the deck on sub prime mortages . Some 14 years later I'm only at about fifty percent of my high in 2008.

Any and all enhancements to reporting that increase transparency will be welcomed by retail investors. Like it or not, as our community becomes more aware of the unfair practices being demonstrated by institutional investors, we will continue to support all improvements to ensure EVERYONE is following the rules.

I fully support 21-19. More transparency is needed in the market to help reduce fraud and corruption. We need better and more frequent reporting immediately.

There is so much of blatant manipulation going on in market and synthetic shares created out of no where. Request very strict jail or otherwise punishment and strict law to avoid such practice which impacts retail investors. Short selling should be allowed only on limited percentage basis and naked short selling amd derivatives contract around same should be out right banned to avoid castor tropical impact like 2008 crisis.

I encourage FINRA to implement new rules, including this proposed rule on short interest reporting, to provide more transparency for retail investors.
