The only way to have any hope of fixing any issue with shorts would be to change trading tech. There should be no reason it is not used on block chain, specifically ledger technology. The settlement of shares in seconds will no longer allow the manipulation and will likely eliminate naked shorting.
100% cfull and transparent reporting on all trades for all stocks. Full and transparent reporting on anything and everything that goes through dark pools, and full and transparent reporting on shorting and naked shorting. If the stock market is an investment vehicle for the people, it needs to be made fair.
Seeing new regulatory rules and requirements is a good step, however they are only as powerful as their own enforcement. FINRA is apparently aware of PFOF, naked shorts, dark pool trading (of up to 89% total daily volume), etc. The rules recently put in place, as well as this request for comment(s) make this obvious.

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.
