I don't know about this short sale rule. I live in Sweden and I always thought that the US is a country that treat's everyone equal. Since I bought stock on the US market the only thing I feel is that every time someone mentioned a rule I just take it whit a grain of salt because nothing happens whit the market. You can make thousand more rules but it doesn't matter because no one is following them.

I believe, along with many others that requiring firms to report short interest data more frequently, along with more precise FTD, settlement, and threshold list information will level the playing field between large institutions and the ever growing retail trader crowd. With more technology allowing the average person to invest for themselves I believe these changes are now necessary to instill confidence in our markets. I appreciate that these changes are being considered and look forward to hearing the outcome!

Transparency in the market! Frequent monitoring of naked shorting especially from Citadel who is a Market Maker and Hedge fund which is a conflict of interest. START ENFORCING RULES! MAYBE SEC SHOULD DO THEIR JOBS AND STOP WITH THE PETTY FINES! HEDGEFUNDS AND MARKET MAKERS SHOULD FACE REAL CONSEQUENCES JUST LIKE THE REST OF US NO ONE IS ABOVE THE LAW OR SO I THOUGHT PROOF ME WRONG AND DO YOUR JOBS.

What on earth are you people paid for, get a grip and do your job. Unbelievable in this day and age.

Commenting to request for more frequent reporting on short positions. Market transparency is extremely important and the closer we can get to real-time data, the better. Thank you.

Amc is being manipulated please look into this story. 🇺🇸

More transparency and an equal fair trade market where illegal naked shorting is minimized.

Since you extended a request for comment, as a retail investor who has had doubts in the validity of the American markets since January, I felt I should participate. It would be nice if the retail investor had access to the same market data that institutional investors have. Transparency is a two fold benefit, it provides investor confidence that they’re putting their money in a fair market, but it also levels the playing field for the average investor.

Fail to deliver data should be reported more frequently preferably daily. Also short seller data should be far more transparent, require daily reporting of short positions, no longer allow covering shorts with options contracts, and the short sale reduction rule should be overhauled to not allow short selling at all once triggered.

In a fair and free market there should be absolute transparency. The number of shares shorted should be available in real time during trading hours. No more dark pool trading. Every single share sold should be reported and able to be located at any time. Market manipulation is rampant and hurting retail investors. Get rid of algo trading back and forth. Naked shorting and FTDs should carry heavier penalties and be forced to close out their positions much sooner or face total trading restrictions.
