I would like to comment on two particular components of 21-19. -"It is possible that the public dissemination of more granular data could discourage short-selling activity, which is an important mechanism for both efficient pricing and for liquidity provision. We also request comment on potential negative outcomes of making this information publicly available on an aggregated basis." -"Would information on the portion of total short interest that is fully or partially hedged be useful to market participants?

No matter how the details are arranged, the SI must be reported as a true and accurate level of shares sold but not possessed, and on as close to real time as technologically possible. Maintaining an accurate and transparent market, while disadvantageous to those who would manipulate it for their gain, is an absolute necessity for the future of our economy and nation. Everything must be above board for our markets not to lose our remaining credibility and trust.

It doesn't make sense in the information age to only make public short interest data on such a low cadence per month. There needs to be stricter requirements on mandating report of short interest. Thank you.

Thank you FINRA for opening the opportunity to comment on Regulatory Notice 21-19 to all investors. Theoughout Throughout last two years, I, along with many others, have enjoyed expanding my knowledge base of the stock market. The more I've learned about the stock matket, the less faith I have in the system. I can open an app on my smart phone anywhere in the world, send money through my bank, and the other party will recieve the money within 30 minutes. Yet if I make a stock purchase through my broker they have T+2 days to locate the stock.

Markets need to be more fair. How are Citadel and Robinhood allowed to make backdoor deals with no serious penalty?

Brokers should not be able to lent out our shares and use it for illegal short selling. Many brokers have this program, and some of them opt-in to lent out our shares even if the customers agreed not to.

I guess you need me to tell you to do your jobs. Wall Street requires regulation. Look around you and open your eyes.

Gamestop and many other stocks have been and continue to be a target to illegal naked short selling that needs to stop, protect the retail investors and companies from crooks and cheats that use illegal practices to stay rich and keep the poor broke as well as drive companies that do good in the world into the ground. Get rid of PFOF, insider trading, politicians having any part of trading, dark pools. Implement the rules you have in place already. Increase fines on the hedge funds that steal millions and only get fined thousands.

It’s sad to see laws being broken and nothing being done to bring justice to the people being taken for granted and used. Billionaires should not be allowed to get away with this kind of nonsense theft. Where is the rule of law? Allowing this type of theft is slowly unraveling our society and has very dangerous implications. Companies are going bankrupt due to companies like citadel shorting stocks. Make everything transparent. PROTECT THE WORKING CLASS #kengriffinlied

By implementing rules that are so easily maneuvered you’re at best turning a blind eye to naked shorting (fraud) and at worst facilitating fraud and the demise of the trust in American Institutions.
