I've read many of the comments and overall, I echo the same sentiment. The one thing I haven't read about is the dark pools. When I first heard of it I honestly thought it was fake. It sounded too nefarious to be real. Turns out dark pools are very real and need to be properly monitored if not banned all together. They seem to be a sort of free for all for fraudulent trading. Using AMC as an example, most days 60% of the daily volume is routed through dark pools. That's insane. I also would like to bring into question the self reporting of short shares.

We no there is a problem with the illegal naked Shorty in the markets please do something. Thank you Sincerely- Chris Siebeneicher

Utterly shocked that hedge funds are allowed to poof money into existence. Where do I sign up to learn how to perform this kind of wizardry? Serious note… we look forward to new regs being enforced… otherwise, all faith is lost in the US financial system, which is easy when we’ve lost faith in our governing bodies, and zero faith in the media.. might I add… big tech can burn with them too. Is there a spine left? Anywhere?

Retail Investors do not have the capability of making sound investment choices so long as large Hedgefunds have the ability to manipulate the market. The research YouTuber "Charlies Vids" has done is outstanding and shows there is a link between this. He has already put forth evidence.

A transparent and accountable market should be the lowest bar. This seems like a minimal step forward, particularly on a higher frequency and timely reporting, expanded information on account level positions, threshold securities, and ownership of synthetic shares. Please do more than consider these enhancements. I had no idea that there was financing available to cover shorts - this seems ethically ambiguous at best.

Every single share should only exist once, we have the technology to do that. But until that happens I want to see a record of all shares, bought and sold, and for what price, at the end of the day. Period. No matter if they happened traded in a dark pool or your your mom's basement using an app to transfer ownership. I WANT TO KNOW THIS INFO, BECAUSE THATS WHAT THE STOCK MARKET IS SUPPOSED TO BE.

Al actions happening in the market should be available for everyone investing. There should be no dark pool that doesn't show up on the public exchanges. All short positions should be available to the public on a daily basis.

The market should be a fair market. That means everyone having the same info at the same time. There should be NO delay on information.

I have been an investor in the stock market for over 20 years, but am considering pulling out for good. The regulators have shown everybody that they aren't in control, and allow hedge funds to run rampant with manipulation and most likely buy them off with kickbacks in the form of fines, while they break all the rules. The level of gross criminality is off the charts, and at the very least, the regulators should be publicly exposing all of the manipulation so the rest of the market can see it, and their failure to do this suggests collusion.

The blatant manipulation against AMC and GME makes me lose complete faith in the US stock market. I am working on moving my money out of the US stock system. It's clear that our government is bought and paid for. This system with tutes lying about short positions, dark pools, secondary books by brokers, unchecked FTD's and high-frequency trading makes an unfair playing field to where sports betting is more attractive. It's an absolute scam.
