Help us get to T+1 and then to T+0. Help us get rid of payment for order flow. These two things alone will help the naked short crisis that we're witnessing across the market and put more trust in us. Fines should be astronomical on those caught red handed instead of the slaps on the wrists that we know that finra has done in the past. I'm tired of people keep thinking that retail
Dark Pools need to be gone, if the market is fear and fair. Where is the transparency? Short Sale Restrictions must be enforced, currently it’s a joke. Failure To Deliver must be fully enforced. If I sell something I don’t deliver the items but I keep the money, that’s stealing! Currently your rules are joke. No retail investor benefits from your rules if they are no fully enforced. If I drink
Much more transparency is needed in regards to the number of current short sale positions including percentage that have been closed on a daily basis. For far too long retail investors have been dealt a bad hand going against hedge funds who have access to all the detail we do not. Please make the markets what they are supposed to be which is free and fair. Please enforce and intensify the rules
Hello, I will keep my comment brief. I am a $XXX,XXX.XX retail investor that humbly supports any and proposed measures to improve transparency and data accuracy for retail investors. While the term “free market” is a farce, I do believe we should have a fair market which currently we do not. Institutional shorting data is horribly unreported given the 2 week delay in reporting in addition to its

This is a statment that says I live in the US. Were we should have the right to purchase freely any stock, ETF, or any investments we choose with out regulation, passing a test or any other type of legislation that restricts our rights to choose an investment. This proposed legislation infringes our constitutional right to freedom and the pursuit of happiness. Do not take away our rights that we
Please do not take away my ability to purchase leverage and inverse funds. I have many of these and have invested in them for many years. They have helped me protect my retirement investments. If you can allow all of these young kids to invest in Meme stocks via Robinhood, then why in the world would you restrict us old folks from investing in whatever we want?
Im a retail investor. About 10 years ago I bought an inverse ETF fund after hearing it recommended on a PBS stock market program. It never was in the black - it only lost value. Its now down more then 90%. I can understand how these investment vehicles can be effective for sophisticated investors and industry professionals but sales to the general public should be restricted. They are too
I use leveraged ETFs everyday and am well aware of the risks involved. Pulling retail access from them cripples the idea of a free market. Removing them does not make the market any less risky for retail investors, there are plenty of retail investors who have lost it all on worthless meme stocks such as $GME. This proposal makes no sense once its thought out and reduces 0 risk.
Please do not bring regulations that stifle adoption and investment. This is all part of freedom being able to invest in an asset (precious metals, precious stones, stocks, bonds, currency or digital currency etc), claiming America being a free nation, and not allowing financial freedom such as investment as long it's within guidelines of law that protects the investor from scammers and
