Short positions should be reported daily. FTD data reported daily. No more hiding behind walls of lag time. Reporting needs to be mandatory and verifiable, not merely self-reported. Punishments for non-compliance or falsification need to be much more severe and timely. Short reporting needs to also include the level of options sales that are naked. Naked Options produce synthetic shares and should be highly scrutinized.
Eliminate dark pools Fines should be greater than the profit hedge made from the illegal activity Jail time is needed for market manipulation. Short positions should be forcibly closed out if illegal market manipulation is found and trading rights of those involved should be revoked. Shorting taking place in the dark pool needs to be disclosed to the public. If an institution buys shares in the dark pool and then dumps (sells) those same shares on the public exchanges to tank the price, this should have to be reported. Fail to Delivers should be reported to the public as well as Finra.
