Hedge funds, corporations, and other institutions have information and resources far beyond what the retail investor can access. Not only are these entities over leveraged compared to retail, some use their advantages to break laws and/or tilt the market in their favor. Incorrect marking of a position as long when their short. Continuous fail to delivers because of naked shorting. Trading in dark
I believe more transparency is needed any the dark pools need to be more transparent as well. The fines and penalties need to be increased so that the crime wouldn't be worth the cost of the crime. You have people taking interest in the stock market just to get robbed due to manipulation and synthetic shares. You will find that more people can be made to use the market fairly and people
Hey there! I humbly and gratefully thank you guys for opening the doors to the public to have a say. I'd like to express my fears regarding short selling and naked shorting and how it affects my family. The stock price of my shares (AMC) often makes no sense, I'm asking FINRA to dig into just what's going on with big short positions, is the price being manipulated, the shorts have
Make it simple: add unique, serialized identifiers on every share. Tracking illegal activity would be easy, and lead to greater transparency and enforcement of laws. There’s too much shady and illegal practice in the market as it is, and enforcement is a joke. Nobody in the retail sectors trusts the market or the current laws’ ability to regulate all the nonsense. Make each share unique. Increase
Fair market! Stop the naked shorts and stock fraud!
Here are some examples on how the system could be improved: 1. Reduce the reporting period to weekly (or preferably daily) from biweekly. 2. Require that exchanges report failures to deliver and naked shorts alongside covered shorts. 3. Reduce the holding period for reported days from 4 days to 2 or fewer. 4. Document and release the identities of funds that have open short positions and
I want a more transparent market for retail investors. Live accurate data that isn't 2-30 days delayed and partially reported. It is a distinct disadvantage that retail has when it only gets part of the picture. I also would like to see more regulations and stiffer penalties on naked short selling. The fines that are handed out for FTDs and naked short selling are a drop in the bucket to
I hope there’s a fair trading and fair market for everyone! Not just for institutions but also for retail. I hope the market manipulation will be soon be over! Retails and individuals are much suffers with this kind of market. We all deserve a fair and transparent market for EVERYONE
Thank you for asking for comments. I am a fairly new investor (got more serious in January). I love numbers and reports so you can imagine my frustration with all the different results at the end of each day regarding short interest. Fintel would say one thing and Ortex another, etc. I also follow litigation news as well and had a suspicion confirmed when a firm was accused of marking shorts as
There isn’t any transparency within market. FTDs need to be enforced without delay. NO more dark pools. And SSR should be enforced more strictly. market has become very main stream this year a lot of new investors because of meme stocks - so a lot of these problems are trending to the majority and if nothing changes I can see a lot more people will not trust market after this year.
