FIX THE NAKED SHORTING [REDACTED]!!!
- Short interest positions to be public knowledge, not on a website behind pay walls. - Daily reports updated to a site FREE to the public. - Reports also to include Dark Pool Data, as these unlit exchanges are seemingly used more frequently than the lit ones now. Why report on numbers that wont even be the whole picture. - Watch for laundering in crypto/other markets that allow for institutions
I think retail is extremely desirous of seeing more frequent reporting and as much of that made publicly available as possible. At least of a weekly or bi-weekly basis. I believe the currently attempted short squeeze is bring to light that lack of transparency is being used to commit fraud and establish predatory roles against companies. The conduct of these financial professionals qualifies as
Respectfully, Much of what FINRA is “considering” regarding the reporting of Short Selling, Reporting, disclosures, and transparency is all needed to protect not only retail investors both domestic and abroad, but to ensure there is confidence in the US stock market.

Any changes that bring information to retail investors quicker and more accurately, such as short interest and FTD data, cannot come soon enough and is long overdue.
The manipulation is obvious. Protect the people.
Short positions should be reported daily, with proof they are not naked shorts. How long can you continue to let them dump more synthetic shares in the market.
The actual short interest of AMC is not correctly reflected on the websites provided to public. If FINRA wants to investigate in real, then it has to look up dark pool data and short interest in dark pool and only the orders related to sell are routed through exchange and rest buy orders are routed through dark pool. THIS IS NOT FAIR AS NAKED SHORTING WAS BANNED IN 2008 BUT IT IS SAD TO SEE THAT
I have watched the so called "meme" stocks have massive inflow over outflow and still drop like rocks. This is bizarre to me as a retail investor. I might be ignorant about this but I think it warrants investigation. Best, Richard
