I oppose restrictions on my right to invest. Its my money after taxes and it is our right and decision to in invest in public funds. Whatever type of funds they might be.

In my opinion, investing in individual stocks is very risky.
Banning these trades would make no sense. What is the difference between this and micro stocks? Or putting all of your portfolio into a weekly option. Any stock can go to zero.

In a fair and free market there should be absolute transparency. The number of shares shorted should be available in real time during trading hours. No more dark pool trading. Every single share sold should be reported and able to be located at any time. Market manipulation is rampant and hurting retail investors. Get rid of algo trading back and forth. Naked shorting and FTDs should carry
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.
