I believe increasing the frequency of reporting would be extremely beneficial, transparency is one of the things that needs to be improved in many aspects in regards to the stock market as a whole. As of right now it is very difficult to find any accurate information on a variety of topics such as mergers, algorithms, the relationships between brokerages and hedge funds etc. short interest and positions is one of the only things that new retail investors can look up on a somewhat regular basis and even that is limited due to the infrequency. A lot can happen between the current two week reporting cycle.
