Naked shorts should not exist at all. Citadel and other hedgefunds are creating shares, trading them in dark pools back and forth with each other, and in some cases they dump them back into the market to artificially suppress stock prices. They make millions selling off shares while trying to ruin companies. Why is this even allowed. As a regular person, I can’t make up items and sell them on
Anyone who has looked at the derivates market for $AMC and $GME knows that short interest is being aritfically brought down by the use of these options strategies. If the short interest was really as low as being reported by FINRA and others, we would not have outrageous borrow rates and a continuing avalanche of FTD's. When will we have transparency in our financial markets? "Synthetic
This is absurd to say what someone can and cant invest in for the everyday person. We are all capable of understanding what risks are involved as everything in the market comes with risk. I do a lot of investing and trading using leveraged funds and have not had an issue and its where a vast majority of my trading comes from. All this without any kind of test. Its insulting to take away so much
As an AMC GME APE I demand market transparency! Same day reporting is doable with the technology. End PFOF and Ban Dark Pools! Citadel Securities Scandal CEO Ken Griffin should be arrested immediately ORTEX should be releasing information to the public for free Enforce the rules that you already have in order SEC Rule 304(a) (4): Suspension, Limitation, or Revocation to the Exchange Link to rule
Its time for transparency in the market! Pfof should be a crime its a conflict of interest and not only that other coutries have banned this practice so why is it taking so much effort to discredit the retail investors beliefs! The fake news being spread about amc and many others is quite disturbing! If we never had a ceo who cared about his company we all would be at risk! This is something
I understand that short selling is viewed as important to the health of the stock market; however, when it is used to maliciously attack retail investors, it should in no way be legal. The existence of naked short selling remains a recurrent problem for many stocks, AMC and GME being two of the most notorious. If there is even the possibility of naked shorting, shorting should immediately be
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/GME stock (for example) on the dark pool and then flooding the
There is no reason all data from the stock market including short data isn’t transmitted in real time. This isn’t the 1920’s and also “family office” is a sham. It was created in the early 20th century and the rules governing them have never been updated. They should report like everyone else or be used as shells for market makers to hide short positions. Options should never be allowed to
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 scale. To make matters worse, the bulk of the short sales, particularly on
My comments are as follows: 1. The T-2 settlement period needs to changed to a T-0 or T-evening (the day of). The fact that retail investors have to wait two days, whereas institutional investors don't, violates a free and fair market. 2. Eliminate the loopholes and gaps in the rules that allow institutional investors to wait until T-35 and beyond to settle FTDs. For an example AMC and GME
