The short selling as a business action to "bet" against what is considered a failing business is understandable. It's when a company uses various tricks in the market to create more shorts than should actually exist, IE naked short selling. Various people that are not apart of the regulatory system have proven such naked shorts exist and yet the system set in place does nothing to
Report short interest and all relevant information DAILY. End loopholes allowing short interest to be artificially hidden with “married calls/puts.” Do something about the relentless and abusive practice of naked shorting. Everyone sees it but the general public cannot do anything about it. Are shares of everything we own are getting significantly and artificially devalued through this rampant
With how poorly the entire market is run, anything that enhances the ability for retail investors to have more transparency is a must. With how easily everything can be manipulated, data being skewed and hidden, naked shorts, FTD's, etc - the entire system needs an overhaul.

As a retail investor it would be nice to see increased transparency from financial institutions. No more naked shorts, or at least increased naked short share exposure, decreased use of Dark Pool trading, required reporting from every institution on their positions (short and long) to organizations such as FINRA or Ortex etc, and forced coverage of FTDs when they are due.
