First of all- Proverbs 13:22 says that the sinners wealth is stored up for the godly. And good people leave an inheritance to their grandchildren! I fully believe that the Lord is bringing about a great transfer of wealth thru many means and avenues not just the stock market. I've seen Him (the Lord) use real estate and my husband and I were beneficiaries of that a few times. All that being
Market makers should not be allowed to have positions in the market, especially short! Anyone could see why this is a major conflict of interest. They have the tools and access to enough money to manipulate a stock price in their favor. The lack of transparency when it comes to shorting activity/positions by market makers and hedgefunds is hurting retail trader confidence as well! How is 50-60%
I have been invesing since 1960 in 8th grade when I bought 1 shares of US Seel and 2 shares of Poliroid. US Steel didnt turn out to well but on 2 shares of Poliroid which spit 4 for 1 and then 2 for 1 made about $600 on $120 investment. I have been investing eversince thru corrections , Bull runs and crashes. In the 2008 financial crisses lost 90% because HF's and banks stacked the deck on
increased reporting requirements around the currently broadly abused short selling practices in the stock market (including naked shorting, mis-reporting longs as shorts, re-hypothecated shares, married puts/calls, and fails to deliver) are a step in the right direction, the proposed changes do not go far enough to provide transparency and fairness to the public. Please consider providing all of
News reports stating that FINRA has approved a security for trading, quoting or listing are wrong in virtually every respect. FINRA does not ever qualitatively evaluate or approve a security such as a stock. Instead, FINRA verifies a broker-dealer can demonstrate it has completed its required diligence to begin quoting.
It is commonly understood that for every transaction the terms of the exchange is known by both parties and executed faithfully to produce what we consider the stock market. Technology now allows for near instant transactions for market participants, therefore the due diligence of reporting that transaction to regulatory authorities should occur simultaneously with the transaction itself. This
If you regulate short selling you limit price discovery. China is restricting all kinds of rights with stock trading. In China you can't even talk about any bad about the market or stocks. Let's not make the same mistakes. enough!
Agreeing with Tom Berwick, sending for visibility into this serious matter. I am sick & tired of large hedge funds such as Citadel performing coordinated ladder attacks against GME & AMC, as well as others. Those two charts frequently pattern in lock step with each other. Investors know, as I assume FINRA & SEC does as well, that naked shorting is taking place on a grand
I am just simply fed up with this incredible UNFAIR "FREE" market. As a retail investor for the better part of the year I began investing with the tolerance to idly stand by as positions where I have stake have been very clearly manipulated. No longer will I be a silent bystander because after the last few weeks I have seen it is very apparent to me that these problems run deeper. I
In a fair and open market there should be transparency and a level playing field for all investors; be they retail or institutional. The # of shares shorted should be available IN REAL TIME throughout the trading day. Dark pool trading must be eliminated. We can clearly see that large institutions are buying massive quantities of AMC stock (for example) on the dark pool and then flooding the
