Hello, I am commenting in favor of the following regulation adjustments: - Short positions need to be reported daily by funds and market makers, and public notice needs to be reported daily on a public website for that purpose, for all holdings and companies in the market. - Audits need to happen by regulatory agencies to ensure shorts and FTDs are not being hidden in options. - Punishments need
Please do not prevent me from using financial instruments that give me 2x and 3x exposure to index products. They provide a safer way to hedge my portfolio than going short specific things that are much more highly priced and my potential losses are completely known to me unlike a flat out short position.

How about proactively tracking and eliminating naked shorting practices? Naked shorting is illegal but it's certainly not stopping hedge funds from doing it. The benefits of bankrupting a company are obvious and known. Give us a level playing field and be the Robinhood we need. We had enough with the oppression!
For those who have an FPL account, is there a way in which we can view where the broker is getting the variable interest rate used?

Investigate and hold these people accountable!
The proposed amendment to FINRA 4560 is a laughable attempt at improving naked short selling internal control measures, actual regulatory action, or really any kind of further obligation on the part of the involved broker-dealers. There have been hundreds if not thousands of regulatory "actions" taken by FINRA related to short sale, and misreporting/misclassification of shorts. This
A breakdown per market maker of short positions as well. More transparency of, or doing away with, dark pool transactions. When stocks are going 50+% through dps on a daily basis, that is not in keeping with the purpose. Short positions vs percentage of capital for accounts. A daily, dedicated transcript of increase/decrease per shorts/float.
Its clear that you guys understand that big intuition shape market sentiment, that is why it has been required for big institution to report when they take a long position in any company, it is beyond absurd that the same requirements are not in place when a large intuition takes a massive short position. Going forward, it should be a requirement that short positions be reported on a daily basis
