Hassan Beydoun Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

The federal government MUST consistently monitor the inherent market manipulation executed by certain hedge funds who have short positions in various stocks - mainly AMC and GME. The immense amount of naked short selling, buy orders being re-routed to the dark pool to prevent the stock from moving upward, as well as countless other violations need to be addressed as soon as possible. AMC and GME have seen inflow exceed outflow many days and we somehow close the trading day in the red. Daily reporting on all vital information is one of many steps in the right direction.

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?
