I’m sure you will get many comments but it would be nice to see more details on how companies are shorted in a given day as well as something which details what is considered market manipulation and how to report it because many “investors” feel they are getting a raw deal with hedge funds. I believe rules should be in place that a hedge fund cannot pay brokers for trade information especially when those hedge funds stand to make profits against retail trades.

The idea that institutions can sell shorts on a stock without actually owning a stock is absolutely unbelievable. Then add to that the ability to not even have to imitably purchase shares is ludicrous. Oh then scare them with putting them on threshold list that never gets enforced. Also a 48 hour delay to report in today’s worlds is totally inappropriate. Why not at the close of everyday shorts are reported?

Protect the retail investor, and minimize playing field gap with Wall Street. Money is money. The market should be just as equal.

We need daily report on short positions, and a overall crackdown on naked shorting and dark pools. Fines should be served with jail time, if you fine someone a few million, when they make billions, there is no incentive to stop.

Hedge funds used obfuscation and blatant disregard for the rules to extract capital from retail. This became blatantly obvious with the manipulation throughout the last year. I am asking for more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports. Increased enforcement of the current rules against naked short selling is a given.

I have spent thousands of hours reading, researching, and investigating all of the ins and outs of the markets for many years. Never have I ever seen as much blatant manipulation as we do now by certain short sellers. The media articles. The dark pool trading. Short sellers MUST BE INVESTIGATED. They're hiding the manipulation in broad daylight. And it's cost me thousands of settled losses, and hundreds of thousands in unrealized gains to become worthless. THE AMERICAN PEOPLE WILL FIGHT BACK. You must make the market fair.....

I am new to retail investing/trading but what I’ve witness with GME and AMC really opened my eyes to how corrupt and fixed the markets are. The mainstream media I used previously to help make decisions, has been 100% controlled to influence retail investors in a pure evil way. This is about as easy as it gets to see the manipulation. This manipulation is throughout the entire process with naked short selling and failure to delivers to be the main levers to control price. It is so blatant and obvious that everyone is numb to it. Even when it’s known, there are many ways to hide it.

I think it's amazing that you guys at FINRA .really do know the actual short numbers on AMC ent ..naked shorts by the billions also fake reported intrest% darkpool trading FTDs almost 5months behind etc etc...how about you guys expose the BS And stop being complicit

T-Evening on positions. T-2 makes no sense for the average joe that trades. Times have changed yet Finra has not adapted. All hedge funds should legally have to make their positions public, especially if a short position.

It should be a requirement for institutions to disclose short positions just as it is for long positions.
