There are five major suggestions I have: 1. All short interest data be updated daily; 2. No longer allowing the synthetic long loophole to short; 3. No longer allowing shorting in dark pools so the activity can be fully traceable; 4. If a firm FTD, for any reason, they are prohibited from shorting until they cover; and 5. Using blockchain to track every short order executed to ensure a complete and accurate ledger of short interest and who has shorted.
