Short interest should not be self reported. Needs to be transparent and reported daily. FTD's should cause HEAVY fines. I mean, HEAVY. Maybe 50% of annual profit of a company. Naked shorts need to be investigated, openly disclosed to the public and result in heavy monetary penalties, as well as temporary ban from trading a particular security (maybe 30 or 90 days ban).

We want the all the illegal naked shorting to stop, we want the SEC to force the hedgies to cover all their shares in AMC! We want equality in the stock market!

In my 20 years of investment business I have never seen a more blatant illegal manipulation like I have witnessed in AMC Stock. This must have over 3 BILLION synthetic shares that have been sold short. The failure to delivers are beyond counting. The hedge fund backed media lies on a constant basis even creating fake companies to cause fear to try and manipulate the price of the stock down. (See
I think it's apparent that you know what's going on here with AMC & Gamestop and many other stocks. I just want my voice to be heard and many others do as well.

As a new investor, I am skeptical about the fairness of the stock market to the average person. Their should not be a dark pool or after hours trading , illegal and synthetic shorts are killing the American economy. The true stock investment is tainted and the “SEC” is not not policing there policies. The American people are catching on to illegal orchestrated attacks on company’s by hedgefunds.
New Datamodules for Short Selling cool but it will definitly not fix the problem, that the retail is charged invisible fee's and Market Makers abusing those retail investors by pulling them to buy more shares take those fee's and letting other institutions do their dirty work by shorting the stock to keep it low and paying them liquidity with those made fee's to keep going,
