Shawn Williams Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

Complete transparency! If a market maker like Citadel can process order flow and know in real time what moves I'm making, then it should go without question that I be able to see what positions they are taking, also in real time. It's an extreme conflict of interest that they are allowed to do both. These current timelines for reporting are an extreme disadvantage to retail investors. Most of all, naked shorting, synthetic shares, FTD's and the use of darkpools has gotten extremely out of hand.

Where do I begin? Crack out the whip on SEC forcing them to actually enforce the current rules, & make improvements where needed to protect EVERY investor - NO FAVORITISM. Shorts should be transparent for ALL to see. 'Immediate' enforcement of FTD failure to deliver. FULL transparency is imperative, show what's happening on the inside with dark pools. A fair market needs to have transparency!

Its clear that you guys understand that big intuition shape market sentiment, that is why it has been required for big institution to report when they take a long position in any company, it is beyond absurd that the same requirements are not in place when a large intuition takes a massive short position. Going forward, it should be a requirement that short positions be reported on a daily basis, preferably twice a day, at market close and at market open, and large fines should be associated with incorrect reporting of these position.

FINRA, I am just a small retail investor that is quickly losing faith in a fair and transparent marketplace. I would like more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports to begin with. Can you help restore faith in the "retail investor" community by requiring extreme transparency at all levels? We need a fair and unbiased referee, without that, I will not play the game much longer. Thank you, Joseph Lachance Manchester, NH 03104 United States of America
