It’s ok to short shares that you own. It’s never ok to naked short or create synthetic shares.
Along with getting updated publicly accessible free short interest daily to level the playing field, hedge funds should have to file their short positions in 13Fs #AMC Naked shorting also needs to be identified and stopped and FTD's need to be purchased. Can't have all these "IOU's"
We need more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in those public reports. Naked shorting is illegal!!!
There needs to be regulations like the ones listed on synthetics and naked shorts since naked were deemed illegal. these Hedge funds are making hand over fist controlling the markets and crashing us to make even more money. They need rules and regulations just like anyone else does. This currently is not a fair and free market its a dictated market by huge hedge funds that have no regulations.
As an international investor, I would like to see the following changes: 1. All short reporting (naked or otherwise) should be reported on a daily basis. 2. If a particular entity shorts a stock more than 5% it should be reported just like long positions. 2. Shorting a stock above 30-40% should not be allowed due to share dilution it causes.
It will never be a fair playing field if shorts are not disclosed and we will look like frauds to the entire world. Naked short sellers deserve prison.
I fully support all increases in what must be reported with regards to short positions, and the frequency in reporting. If regulators are truly worried about the gamification of the market then close the loopholes and increase transparency particularly around ‘naked’ shorts. Shorts are just tools but dangerous tools that are currently far too easy to abuse with malice intent.
Market makers and brokers who hold short positions should be completely transparent about those positions for the public good. Individial short interest in a given security should absolutely be reported up and made available for public consumption in aggregate. The lack of transparency and potential for naked short sellers to completely destroy an otherwise healthy company. If any company can be
I would like to see full transparency in regard to short selling, including naked short and dark pools. Full accountability for failure to deliver (FTD)
Please do something about the illegal marking shorts as longs, prime brokers conspiring with hedgefunds, dark pool abuse, naked shorting, and tranperancy. Stop allowing hedgefunds to abuse shorts and only get a small fine if caught. Serious penalty or jail time for illegality should b considered if u wish fo uphold rule of law
