I honestly have been losing faith in our stock market in general and want to bring integrity back to our markets. If shares aren’t properly reported and have the ability to be manipulated on a mass scale then what’s the point of the every day investor even attempting to do anything?? My comment would be to enforce the law on ALL of us not just some. If naked shorting or selling of stocks they DONT have is happening then let’s correct that. We all know by creating fake shares it dilutes the market even if it’s temporarily.

Hello. I am a supporter of transparency within the stock market. I have found that there are certain holes in the current regulations that make it possible to conceal important and actionable information from the public. These include: The lack of requirements for disclosure of an entity's short positions The lack of daily (or instant if possible) updates as to the current short interest of a security. The ability to create synthetic shares (naked shorts) for a security. The use of dark pools beyond their normally intended function(s).

Here's what we need: FINRA is dedicated to protecting investors and safeguarding market integrity in a manner that facilitates vibrant capital markets. Every investor in America relies on one thing: fair financial markets. To protect investors and ensure the market’s integrity, FINRA is a government-authorized not-for-profit organization that oversees U.S. broker-dealers. We work every day to ensure that everyone can participate in the market with confidence.

Hello, I believe that this is a really important rule as we all know what can happen when shorts go unchecked. I understand the reason for shorting but when people get carried away, they can harm another company as a whole. I don't see how there could be any trouble making the info transparent to be able to keep a book on how many shorts are out on the market to avoid any issues of naked shorting. Thank you for bringing this to the table and strongly consider how to proceed forward.

Short interest should be disclosed daily in order to level the playing field with retail traders. Naked shorting and dark pool trading needs to be completely done away with

Would like more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports. Short sellers get away with too much and its not fair for retail. For example amc, gme, clov.

We need 100% transparency in short positions. We need these positions reported as often as possible.

I believe it is critical that FINRA mandate daily reporting of short positions by all members, to include synthetic shares. It is clear that FINRA does not receive accurate updates from its members on the above and that it is having a profound negative effect upon the overall market. Retail perceives FINRA in a negative manner, an organization that does not enforce any of its rules and which permits large institutions to ignore rules to manipulate the markets.

As an European investor I'm seriously concerned about the undeniable illegal practices surrounding the US stock market and the lack of transparency. Any and all data regarding short sales should be publicly available for everyone in real time to create a truly fair and free market for retail investors.
