As it stands, I see no reason why any of the bad actors will accurately mark or report their positions. Even with a condensed reporting timeline, there is no vehicle for FINRA to keep track of mismarked/illegal/synthetic/etc. short positions. Recommend that stocks released by companies should have tracking numbers so that short positions shall be required to have a one for one trace via tracking number to an actual position. Either this, or use publicly accessible blockchain technology to trace long and short positions.

I support these regulations giving more data and transparency to keep manipulation of the stock market from occuring.

I support all of these initiatives and believe that their implementation is a step in the right direction for having a truly free, transparent market.

These changes will be greatly appreciated. It is more than unfortunate knowing there have been companies which went out of business due to coordinated over shorting of their stocks. The enrichment of a few companies, much less individuals, at the expense of thousands of jobs and millions of retirements is abhorrent. I hope we see more changes to stabilize and unobfuscate the markets moving forward.

We are tired of crappy stock markets..we need transparency of the stovk market... Citadel needs be broken into tiny pieces...how can someone be hedge fund and decide what do with retailers money... Are guys being held hostage by wallstreet.. 2008 economy go down..who gets bailed out.big money...2020 economy takes a shit..guess who the first to cry again. I think america is here cater for big wealthy pple..i hope we going see serious change... the people who took ppp loans and buy Lamborghinis are beibg rounded up by irs..

Nothing is done to stop criminals from wall st from manipulation of GME and other stocks. This is insane. The US market is a shame and after GME I will never touch the US market again. These people from citadel need to go to jail not a silly fine

The new reporting has some very good aspects. The problem is that they will be enforced by fines in the tens of thousands of dollars, when breaking them will result in millions of dollars in profits. The penalties need to be strong enough to stop the actions, and should include loss of privileges as market maker, or broker.

I think these proposals are essential if you want retail to have any confidence in the financial markets and keep investing. It has gotten to the stage where the playing field is so skewed in favour of institutional investors at the expense of retail that you risk seeing retail completely withdraw. I think these proposals will help.

Please implement the rules and enforce them. The public deserves a fair and level playing field. Currently that is not the case. Thank you in advance.

Please make this happen. There’s just no reason why we can’t have up to date information in this day and age. Transparency is important to a functional capitalist system
