The use of dark pools as a tool for price suppression is overwhelmingly clear. Market manipulation is actively taking place and the free reign of large organizations to process transactions off-exchange is essentially cheating the system. Additionally, there is basically no real, enforceable regulation on the shorting of stocks. Through aggressive shorting, powerful entities can drive many businesses to closure by not leaving them a way to generate immediate capital (such as by issuing new shares). Short selling is creating massive problems for the market as a whole.

Please hold everyone accountable, enforce the laws, and keep the playing field level. The corruption and manipulation needs to be stopped. Stand up for the people. Mike

All shorts should be reported to finra to stop all the market manipulation that's going on

To Whom It May Concern, I have seen first hand the impact of false information devastate retail stock investments. Without real integrity, the small individual like myself, will not only be disheartened, but disillusioned with market. How can we possibly compete in a fair and just market when the lack of transparency means you will never have a level playing field. Please, please make every effort to give everyone a truly fair market. Thank you.
