First: Short selling to drive companies out of business should be illegal. All short sales should be made public before trading starts every day. Easily accessible NOT buried on a remote website. Short sales in excess of 1% of outstanding stock should be reported immediately and displayed with the stocks ticker symbol.
Something needs to be done with the Naked Shorting companies are doing. Citadel Securities has been manipulating the price action of stocks through dark pool trading, naked shorting, & synthetic shares. The SEC seems to be doing nothing in the retail favor more so doing more for the hedge funds. This past weekend was only good fundamental news for AMC yet they’ve shorted and drove the
Short Sale Rule should be changed to state that if a stock is shorted ten percent from the previous day's close,, NO shorting is allowed from that moment until the end of the next trading day. It is rediculous to allow shorting at all beyond that ten percent mark as it solely benefits the wealthy institutions who can afford to continue to drive a price down when retail investors are buying

As an international investor, I would like to see the following changes: 1. All short reporting (naked or otherwise) should be reported on a daily basis. 2. If a particular entity shorts a stock more than 5% it should be reported just like long positions. 2. Shorting a stock above 30-40% should not be allowed due to share dilution it causes.

For instance, when AMC was showing a reported shorting percentage of over 18% on July 6th and then today, the 13th, the stock drops drastically and shows it’s now 15% shorted from borrowed
To whom it may concern, I feel that things could go better if rules which are passed are enforced. Shorts and naked shorts should be closed and not covered because they(hedge funds with short positions) just use illegal ways for covering. Using the rules to over manipulate a stock (AMC, GME) isn't fair market and harsher punishment should be the consequences. Jail time, fines which start in
Short sales in general used to manipulate stock price is price manipulation of a stock and should be 100% illegal. With that being said if it is to continue it needs to be live time and 100% trackable. What I am watching happen with short selling, naked short selling and dark pool trading is beyond criminal and needs to be addressed asap. The world is watching.
On my journey to investing in the stock market and am finding out that groups of Hedge funds have been manipulating stocks for their own and client’s personal gain. Where shorting a stock can be useful to help companies provide liquidity and entice investors, shorting companies to bankruptcy is not. In fact to bankrupt a company in order to make naked shorts disappear (and hence any
