"Proprietary" long positions should be reported should they contain previous short interest despite a strategy change. As long as it's "guaranteed hedged" it's ok? Peak clown market.
Quit allowing shorts, do your jobs. Put an end to dark pool abuse….you and other “regulating” or overseeing groups are just as much of a problem and just as guilty for allowing these abuses
My comment on the rules is to actually enforce them. Honestly, take a look at obvious naked short selling and market manipulation. We the people have lost trust in a "free" market.
We need the transparency and FAIRNESS in our markets. What do they have to hide? Why NOT report short positions? Does it give an advantage too not disclose them? This is WAY overdue!!
Common investors should be allowed to short and go long on the market. By not allowing the common investor to buy these instruments you are only allowing only the professional investors to make money off the common investor. Allow a level playing field!
We need to see more accurate short interest data I believe it’s not accurate and the fact that citadel can make the markets and invest in them and double dip and manipulate is unbeliveble.
The dark pools need to be removed to restore retail investor confidence. Full disclosure of short positions on a monthly basis. Rein in the hedge fund manipulation or the whole market will eat itself.
Want more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports. Also want rule for brokers to mandatorily have no share lending by default with an option to opt in.
Best execution for retail investor. Best available price at the time for all investors. Stop dark pool trading, transparency on payment for order flow. Stop shorting and synthetic shares.
All shares should have a serial number. Block chain technology should be employed to track the movement of these shares. This would prevent any naked shorts both intentional, and unintentional.
