Short interest reporting needs to be completely overhauled if we want to stay the leading market in the financial world. The current self reporting approach is laughable, and the fines for "misreporting", or what I would call lying and stealing, are a cost of doing business instead of a punishment. We have the technology to track short positions like Japan is doing with Blockchain which
Please put these new rules in place. We need transparency in our markets, especially with regard to short selling and dark pool activity. Naked shorting, short ladder attacks, spoofing, as well as online intimidation is taking place on stocks like AMC and many others for that matter and it just isn’t fair to the American people. Prime brokers like Citadel should not be permitted to reroute retail
Leveraged funds are important for young small time investors like myself to be able to have access to similar financial vehicles that large investors and institutions are able to use. I use the LETF's to be able to construct a balanced 60/40 portfolio that provides a higher risk-adjusted return than a stand alone index fund would be able to. Imo, there are many stocks that bare much
The actual short interest of AMC is not correctly reflected on the websites provided to public. If FINRA wants to investigate in real, then it has to look up dark pool data and short interest in dark pool and only the orders related to sell are routed through exchange and rest buy orders are routed through dark pool. THIS IS NOT FAIR AS NAKED SHORTING WAS BANNED IN 2008 BUT IT IS SAD TO SEE THAT
The lack of regulation and accountability from governmental security agencies allowing hedge funds to manipulate markets through various tactics like synthetic shorting is nothing short of financial treason against the American people. To allow these large privately owned institutions the ability to cheat and pray upon average American citizens and investors is an absolute mockery of the
SSR doesn't work when market makers such as Citadel Securities can still mark a short exempt. Short exempt is supposed to be an exception but every time $amc is on SSR the counts of short exempts is extremely high. Citadel's hedge fund profits from their market maker's ability to short during SSR as do the options contracts held by Citadel Securities. This is an unfair competitive
When I see the daily clobbering, due to obvious market manipulation, myself and other retail investors can scarcely afford, I feel angry. We need protection so that we can actually benefit from investing in companies of value, Like AMC, GME and countless others. I request that you move immediately against the blatant securities fraud Citadel and other are committing, daily, and that you consider
I think even the dumbest of the public is fully capable of making a decision to make a trade in a risky stock/ETF/Leveraged Fund. I love the inverses. I have used them to my advantage and would be considered no more than an average American small business owner. And more than happy to take full responsibility for my trades. We don't need more baby sitting here. Let the AMC and GME
Dark pools should be illegal, not fair for the average investor. People are starting to lose faith in a rigged system that only helps the 1% . Synthetic shares should be illegal. Total shares of a company should be verified and synthetics should be removed , the system is rigged for the elites. Shorting should be reported on a daily basis. Crypto should be used as a replacement for a stock , so
The market is completely unbalanced when it comes to retail trading versus institutional trading. We need more transparency especially when it comes to institutions or hedge funds hiding their positions within the dark pools. They hide these positions and FTD's in the dark pool and through options trading. It is absolutely apparent there is naked shorting going on with certain stocks in the
