1n the first place, naked short selling should not.be allowed and we know that it is because there is no way to police it. This would help.
Dear Finra, I request you make short selling data more transparent, updated and available to the public. Thank you. Malik.
Hedge funds selling synthetic shares should be scrutinized and rules should be such that the naked shorting or synthetic shares should be made unavailable.
Dark Pools exist for large institutional orders. Use for any other purpose should be illegal. Naked shorting must be prosecuted.
I support these proposals in general, and the proposals to require short interest reporting daily, and to require clearinghouses to report fail to deliver data, specifically.
To keep it simple, shorting rules and regulations need to be updated and brought up to speed. Reporting should be done faster and more efficiently.
Daily short reporting Bigger - significant fines for false reporting. 1:1 with share price so they cannot consider it as “cost of business”
I am against the proposal to limit individual investors access to leveraged investments. Their use is an important part of my investment plan to take advantage of short term opportunities in the market.
I want to be able to choose what investments are right for me and my family. Sometimes, the right investment is a short ETF. Regulators should not be able to limit our investment opportunities.
It would be hurtful to my investment strategies, if my access to leveraged ETF's is limited. Short ETFs are great way for the common investor to provide downside protect in volatile markets.
