I would like to see more information and transparency in reporting of short sale positions. I am a retail investor and would like an even playing field with hedge funds. I understand that other markets have stopped the short share positions to stimulate the economy. Thank you for your time
All short sales - synthetic, actual, borrowed, naked shorts which we need to acknowledge exist, etc. ALL should all be more fully disclosed to level the playing field for the non-institutional buyer. Hedge funds manipulate the market terribly with the existing rules and it needs to change.
The ways in which hedgefunds, family offices, and institutions are able to hide their naked short positions, whereby effecting an inaccurate short interest %, means that this isn't a level playing field. Force them to disclose ALL positions so that I, a retail investor, may choose to invest my money in a responsible way.
They are openly driving the AMC stock price down. Whole world this AMC stock manipulation happening in open view. This is pure stock manipulation and cheating happening. All the buys are going through a dark pool and no price reflection happening. Please serve the Justice we are bleeding in losses.

To Whom It May Concern:

2. I can match a group of equity holdings needed to be hedged.
3. Less risky than Stock

FINRA is touching on synthetics when short positions are achieved through the sale of a call option and purchase of a put option. Agreed with this but what can you all do on the synthetics via naked shorts because we know that's happening in a huge way? I like the short interest position reporting but you all need to see who and how teeth can be put into this. The reality is organizations
There is so much public data showing short positions that exceed the outstanding shares of multiple companies. Short positions should be reported at least weekly. This includes borrowed shares that are sold short, and put options. Firms that fail to deliver should be fined much more than they currently are. If there are 1,000,000 outstanding shares, but call 20,000 open options for a ticker,
I've read many of the comments and overall, I echo the same sentiment. The one thing I haven't read about is the dark pools. When I first heard of it I honestly thought it was fake.
