I am very strongly in support of strict regulations that require the reporting of synthetic short positions. Daily reports of such positions and all other short positions should be required. Fail to delivers in particular need much more regulation. In my opinion FINRA should place regulating FTDs as priority one. More frequent reporting, and shorter time to release FTDs to the public, as currently the SEC releases with a two week delay. The FTD reports should be released daily, and immediately, to the public.
