There really needs to be individual markers or identifiers for each stock. This has been ridiculous to watch as there are "sythetic" shares that are causing an impact on the market as a whole.
When companies are fined millions for breaking rules that netted them billions, there is no reason to not break those rules. Naked Shorting is predatory upon companies and investors alike. Make the penalty greater than the theft. Along with potential criminal referrals. This is only way to clean up the marketplace. It's gone on far too long. While 70 million to average people sounds extreme
Please enforce margin calls and share threshold listings. Enough is enough Hedgie funds need to pay debut just like the rest of us. Naked shares cancel that. Not allowed to trade in dark pools cancel that. System is no where close to fair for retail traders.
Enforce the margin calls on shorts that are way out of money. If someone has a short at $20 and the stock is at $70, they shouldn't be able to short more before they cover their previous loosing shorting positions. Also prohibit share borrowing from cash accounts, my shares are my own and I don't want to lend them out to shorts... That's like shooting myself in the foot.
I agree with the proposed changes. Data on Short positions should be reported every day including synthetic short positions/naked shorts.
Ridiculous they're allowed to keep manipulating everything. They should HAVE to cover at this point and never be allowed to short again.
Restrictions need to be placed on shorts to prevent overleverage ASAP especially to the degree that AMC is right now. If any normal person to out a loan and over leverage it banks would be at our throats to receive their money. Why is it treating any different with short sellers. The act of bankrupting a company without full transparency of all positions should be illegal.
I can’t believe how non transparent Wall Street is. Institutional Investors have it all in their favour. Retail Investors have nothing. It’s a corrupt system. Nothing was learned by 2008. Dark pools should either be visible or outlawed. Synthetic share are a no but so clearly used but nothing is done to regulate. FTD’s are placed on the threshold security list for 13 days but then nothing happens
I believe that firms should be required to report their data on synthetic shares. I also believe that companies on the threshold list should be identified as such. I appreciate your time, Mike
