In a continuing effort to assist member firms' compliance efforts, NASD is issuing this regular communication, "Improving Examination Results." This document has two sections: "Examination Priorities" and "Frequently Found Violations," both of which relate to the Department of Member Regulation's routine examinations of firms. While each
Please please please change short position regulations to account for arranged financing of synthetic shorts. The US's economic system has become beyond strained and failure to account for synthetic shares both creates an enormous assymetry to the detriment of retail investing and also contributes to contribute malfeasance by unscrupulous hedge funds, market makers, and their enablers.

I am truly disgusted at how the SEC has allowed hedge fund companies, billionaires and millionaires to perform naked shorts against companies like AMC entertainment (AMC) and GameStop (GME).

SEC Approves Amendments to TRACE Rules and Dissemination Protocols to Disseminate Specified Pool Transactions and SBA-Backed ABS Transactions and to Reduce the Time to Report Such Transactions

Regulations preventing individuals not considered high net worth is classist, and potentially racist considering the socio economic demographics of high net worth folks.

Since savings accounts are, for all intents and purposes, gone or making an amount of interest smaller than inflation in a good year, I should have every right to pursue investments that interest me even if my starting capital is a small amount. It's ludicrous to tell me I can't invest because I'm not rich enough. Public securities are just that . . . . public.
