To FINRA: In a fair and open market there should be transparency and a level playing field for all investors; be they retail or institutional. The # of shares shorted should be available IN REAL TIME throughout the trading day. Dark pool trading must be eliminated. We can clearly see that large institutions are buying massive quantities of AMC stock (for example) on the dark pool and then flooding the public exchange with shares (via selling, short-selling and short laddering) in order to MANIPULATE THE PRICE DOWN.

Yes, short interest should be reported daily or at least weekly and in real time. Not you report today what interest was two weeks ago. Also why take a firms word for it what their short interest is. It should not be self reporting. Should be a system in place to confirm what they are reporting is true. Then finally, the most important thing. MAKE HEDGE FUNDS ACTUALLY REPAY THE SHARES THEY BORROW FROM TIME TO TIME. MARGIN CALL THEM. Someone shouldn’t just be able to keep borrowing forever.
