I have watched the market manipulation since March on this stock. Putting on sell pressure by posting large sell orders and them disappear when they outcome is what they are wanting in the buys side. They are playing with our hard earned money and the playing field is skewed. Orders not being filled and platforms rejecting orders that match the same orders from short sellers. Enough is enough. The game is rigged and it’s time the hedge funds are no longer allowed to do business or let them fail.

We need more transparency within the market. We need to see daily reports on a specific institution's short position regarding the amount of shares they have on loan, the amount of time those shares have been borrowed, the amount gained/loss due to a short position, and the amount of IOUs/tangible shares that are being traded. This is also including trades done within the dark pool, not just the regular stock exchange which retail investors only have access to.

Systematic short attacks on the retail investor should be illegal. Synthetic shorts have flooded the marketplace. Minimalistic fines are outdated & corrupting the American economy vicariously by encouraging such activity giving short sellers a slap on the wrist for robbing Americans.

We need a free and fair market. Meaning “rules and regulations” that actually work. Rules and regulations that truly hold people accountable. Not turning a blind eye or slapping cheap fines on those that break said “rules or regulations.”

I would like all sides to play by the rules. I think players that go short have the right to do so but should have to disclose their postions just like going long through a 13f or what have you. Every share in existence should be able to be tracked to every person that owns said shares, it is already being done in cyrpto. Overall an emphasis on transparency in the market needs to be better.

Dear Committee, While efforts to improve transparency are appreciated, I believe there is no mention of dark pools. There needs to be more transparency on shorting going on behind the curtains. Moreover, shorting needs to be regulated. There is certainly no need to short a business if there is no evidence of foul play by the businesses. Running businesses into the ground doesn't allow fair competition in the market and thus shorting requires stricter regulation to avoid malpractices. Thanks.

Good day, There is brazen and blatant market manipulation being done by big investors to drive down prices of securities such as AMC and GME, including practices such as naked shorting, ladder attacks, the spreading of misinformation through media outlets, etc. As to the short interest, what is reported is not accurate, as much of what takes place is on "dark pools" and is made of of naked shorts. I'd suggest working with the appropriate enforcement agencies to put an end to these practices.

The public needs more transparency and FINRA should put out as much legitimate and accurate information as possible so the “good guys” can at least START to TRY to put an end to the massive corruption and manipulation of our “FAIR & FREE” markets.

In not in agreement how shorts are been managed and how SEC are filling rules and there’s no action to thw hedge funds that are shorting. The system is confrontating manipulation and needs to be addressed

Please just enforce whatever it is you’re going to change. The manipulation we see on a daily bases with certain stocks is ridiculous. just do away with shorting a stock all together… why [REDACTED] does a stock need to be shorted?
