Fernie Muñoz Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

As a retail trader I would like to request more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public records. It is time to enforce the short naked violations/manipulation of hedge funds involved on $AMC, $GME and any other companies been shorted. I would like to remind you that your mission is to protect investors by making sure the US securities industry operates fairly and honestly. It is time to enforce your regulations!!! Sincerely, Fernie Muñoz Proud “APE”

B. Content of Short Interest Data - The addition of reporting short interest by categories to give a more accurate picture of which entities hold what positions is great for accountability and keeping an open fair market. - Yes. Any short/long position should be reported the same. Synthetic short positions have a history of being used to conceal a form of market manipulation due to its ability to bypass current reporting requirements. - Threshold securites should be given the decency of being shown who is shorting or failing to deliver the stock.

It's time that hedge funds and those controlling the market are punished just like the rest of us are. There is no accountability for these billionaires who continue to manipulate the markets and ruin companies that the people want to save. Stop with these tiny little fines and stop letting these people control what is supposed to be an open and free market! Just make things fair, that's all we're asking.

Short interest reporting needs to be completely overhauled if we want to stay the leading market in the financial world. The current self reporting approach is laughable, and the fines for "misreporting", or what I would call lying and stealing, are a cost of doing business instead of a punishment. We have the technology to track short positions like Japan is doing with Blockchain which prevents shares being loaned naked and rehypothecated multiple times and I believe that is where our market should go towards. We cannot have another situation like GME and AMC happen again.

1) Short interest data should be published daily. 2) Loopholes for hiding short interest with deep ITM options need to be closed for accurate reporting. 3) Self-reporting of positions needs to be cross-ckecked by independent audits periodically. It is really important you upgrade the reporting and also enforcement of rules, otherwise millions will lose faith in the legitimacy of the market and look to invest elsewhere.
