More frequent public reporting of short positions is needed, more detail in public reports, and more transparency for the retail investor. The markets have become a corrupt and lopsided playing field that caters to big money and leaves the retail investor at a decided disadvantage. Hedge funds play by a different set of rules, and then get slapped on the wrist for the kinds of illegal activities
NAKED SHORTS!! SHORTS SELLING!! BORROWED SHARES!! SYNTHETIC SHARES!! I request daily MARGIN Calls on all shorts at open and close of each trading day !!
A breakdown per market maker of short positions as well. More transparency of, or doing away with, dark pool transactions. When stocks are going 50+% through dps on a daily basis, that is not in keeping with the purpose. Short positions vs percentage of capital for accounts. A daily, dedicated transcript of increase/decrease per shorts/float.
I recently became interest in investing. I am self employed with no retirement. I am afraid to put money in because I feel like large market maker hedge funds have an advantage by controlling the market. It is obvious that they trade in dark pools to drive the price down, short viable businesses into bankruptcy by making up millions of shares, while controlling the media. It’s pathetic, I have to
Please regulate the manipulation of our free market system. Companies should not be able to bypass rules set in place following 2008 or we risk another black swan event and lack of trust in our financial system.
As a hard working retail investor, I’m demanding transparency and accountability for the market makers. I want better tracking of short selling, restricted use of dark pools and t-1 clearing of transactions. I’m tired of seeing HFT’s scalp the profit off the market every morning.
If the bower of shares won’t cover their obligations they should have to pay the full amount immediately with interest, no if’s, and, or but.
Why are we not doing anything about the naked shorting happening AMC? seriously is obviously not a priority for any of the top regulating officials and it’s sad. What if it were to happen to you or any of your kids, meaning if somebody was cheating you or your kid out of their hard earned money. Just sucks because this question and comments may not get anywhere.
please just make it a free and open market for the people ! not just the rich!
There isn’t ANY transparency within the market. Dark pools need to be GONE. SSR needs to be enforced much more strictly. FTDs need to be enforced without delay. The hedge funds leash is way too long. Nobody will trust the market after this. Instead of fines should be jail time..it’s like me stealing something from store and I go to jail..should be same for them..
