I would like to see more information and transparency in reporting of short sale positions. I am a retail investor and would like an even playing field with hedge funds. I understand that other markets have stopped the short share positions to stimulate the economy. Thank you for your time

As much short related info as possible. The playing field is not level. Some people use shorting maliciously and without more info it’s not only unfair but illegal. Fines are just pennies to them.
