I have not been very successful with my Proshares either on the long side or the short side but I still think that I should have the ability to trade these shares as I see fit for my portfolio as market conditions change.
Would elimination of short selling be a better solution? These big guys crush any stock they want and steal from everyone. My opinion this would stop a lot of the theft in stock wealth and destruction of businesses.
I use inverse etf's to hedge my long positions. Trying to short an individual stock is much too risky. A inverse etf is so much safer. Please do not put an end to inverse etfs.
Leveraged and inverse funds are critically important to me in hedging our portfolio risk. Any efforts to curtail their availability would be short sighted and an egregious abuse of regulatory authority. Please leave them alone!!!
I support this proposal. I believe enhancing the short interest reporting methods can help put an end to market manipulation, and can help prevent illegal activity as well.

Coming from a retail investor, I would like reporting of Short Interest to be updated daily. It need to be as transparent as possible. People deserve to know what’s going on and when.
Commenting to request for more frequent reporting on short positions. Market transparency is extremely important and the closer we can get to real-time data, the better. Thank you.
Thank you for this opportunity to send in a comments and for taking the time to consider the requests. It would be nice if the public reporting of short positions was increased and if there was more detail in the public reports.
