Section C: "...short interest reports could be due by 6:00 p.m. ET one business day after the designated reporting settlement date..." In this statement, it's the data that is fixed but the frequency is dynamic. For example, if there's no short sale for 2 days then there will be a reporting gap. Consider that the reporting frequency be fixed but the content be dynamic. A daily report due at 6PM ET reflecting the day's short activity where short sale transactions are in a certain state: 1. EXECUTED - executed on that day and has begun settlement 2.

When does FINRA plan on improving their T+x system so that it’s not so abusable by hedge funds and other institutions? Blockchain for same day settlement? Are any kind of improvements coming on for retail investors in the form of information availability? As in, the info will be available sooner and will actually be relevant content and not 3 months delayed and barely relevant to the market upon release?

You should issue a serial number to every legally issued share of each company. Every dollar bill has one. Why can’t shares? Each sale of every share to any investor, retail or otherwise is cataloged and registered when traded. I buy 1 share and have serial number 12345 attached to it. If my share is short sold, you now know my share of x stock at serial number 12345 has now been bought once and shorted once. If I’m correct, the DTC-2021-005 allows this once. So boom, there’s your one sale and one short sale allowed.

This system is being absolutely abused by short sellers and transparency is not only needed but should have already been implemented. Everyone should have access to the same data, THAT is a fair and just market. Right now the market , AMC, GME , in particular are being manipulated through the use of ETFs and FTD to stall the process of covering shorts like they should. The consequence of these actions should not be a small fine , but 100% of the cost they would have lost had they covered.
