Thank you for allowing the opportunity to post feedback and make recommendations to make the system fair for all traders. I feel that short interest should be reported intraday. If a stock price can be updated within milliseconds then this should be possible too. I also feel that large institutions that have over 100,000 of any stock should have to report their short positions pre and post market
Naked short selling in US markets is grotesque and I have no confidence in stocks because of it. Seemingly concrete evidence of this illegal market behavior is apparent in cases such as Overstock Inc vs Goldman Sachs & Co, but no regulators appear to be serious about the problem. Market Makers insist that the mechanisms that allow this activity are necessary because they “provide
I would support and welcome strong requirements for technology leveraged real time updates to short positions. Because of the predatory nature many entities have assumed, and because of the predatory way that these entities use shorts against a given stock, I ask for any entity shorting a given stock to be publicly identified and that their full short position be updated in real time though
A market is based on supply and demand. A stock market is based on supply and demand. The price on the stock market is normally made by buying and selling shares. Shorting is something else... like someone wants to see a company go bankrupt. In my view this is not the case if investing and the US need to stop allowing shorting. The short interest should not be self reported. That doesn’t make any
Please just enforce whatever it is you’re going to change. The manipulation we see on a daily bases with certain stocks is ridiculous. just do away with shorting a stock all together… why [REDACTED] does a stock need to be shorted?
When reporting short interest can be skewed through a loophole, this needs to be addressed. When short sale restrictions are enacted as a safety for a volatile stock, but overridden through a mysterious, unregulated exchange: this needs to be addressed.

Hi, Market manipulation from abuse of dark pools and naked short selling (AKA creating counterfeit shares) is destroying the integrity of the stock market. Why are these things continuing to be allowed after decades? Transparency and accuracy need to be enforced instead of small slaps on the wrist for violations. We cannot trust the listed price of a stock if we don't know if there are
I use inverse etfs to hedge my portfolio. Similar to long only etfs, it allows short position across a broader spectrum than a single stock short position. In my circumstance, understanding and managing the risks of utilizing an inverse etf are a much better way to manage downside risk than the complexity of shorting individual stocks.
