Kevin Pinkerton Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

I believe, as a retail investor who wants to keep investing in the future, the more transparency we have in the markets the better. Wanting a level playing field is well within reason, and shorting companies into the ground to kill them off is wrong, I don't think that will change but some of the other predatory practices and illegal tactics that have been uncovered are worrisome to say the least. If they don't change I believe a large amount of retail investors will give up on the stock market completely and thats a lot of money to lose.

Anthony Rivas Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

Hi there, thank you for reading my comment. I support all of these new rules. However, re: rule #1, I would like to see that in conjunction with rule #2, not as an alternative to it. I also believe all short interest data should be reported on a daily basis not just to FINRA but also to the public as this data is crucial to some trading strategies and I believe it is available to institutions but not retail investors.
