More frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports.

I believe that the fines applied are like pennys for these people who commit the crimes. The fines need to start at a huge % of the profits they have made off the retail investor. Synthetic shares should NOT exist at all but in this case they should be added to short interest %. Short interest and other information should be more transparent and we should have the same information they have at the same time. This will create a more fair and free market.

As a common retail stockholder, I would very much like to see much more current and much more detailed reporting of short sale activity. I would also like to see investigation as to possible malicious or surreptitious activities by large companies with resources not available to retail investors.

Make them report their short interest and any changes in that short interest!

Please look into the manipulation that is hurting retail investors in the AMC and GameStop stocks. The short selling and dark look trading on these stocks is absolutely out of control and prevents a true free market for retail investors.

Short positions should be updated intra-daily, full transparency. The fact that short sellers, marketmakers, and dark pool traders are in fact the same entity is mind-blowing. Level the playing field already!

We need more frequent reporting on short positions.

We need more transparency in the short interest data, with technology today we should be able to see up to the minute not T+2 . Failure to Delivers should also have more up to minute reporting so the retail investor can make the best financial decisions based on current data not there best guess off data that drips in slowly while hedge funds have the current data to manipulate the market.

I believe in requiring firms to reflect synthetic short positions in short interest reports. For example, enhanced short interest reporting could include synthetic short positions achieved through the sale of a call option and purchase of a put option (where the options have the same strike price and expiration month) or through other strategies. FINRA believes this information would assist FINRA in understanding the scope of market participants’ short sale activity, specifically regarding the use of less-traditional means of establishing short interest.

The market is broken. Please enforce more rules/regulations regarding illegal sale of shares, market manipulation, and all around shady actions from market makers and HFs. I make minimum wage, and only invest what I'm comfortable with, but it's nearly impossible to gain any traction when the market is so corrupted. Tempted to remove my funds from the market as a whole and stash my cash in a mattress. It's probably safer there than a fire prone home. Help the little guy support a family, buy a house, and maybe retire a little early. Im not asking for 26+million a month...
