Yes. Yes. Yes. PLEASE follow through with all of these considerations. A Free and Fair market is what the US citizens expect, and this would be a huge step toward transparency in the markets. I believe this will help TRUST in the markets build in the minds and hearts of the average American.

We need more transparency for every short position so we can see the manipulation.
Short interest reporting enhancement is needed
We (retail investors) simply need to know more information on short positions on all available platforms - free or premium services alike. The information should also be as accurate and as current as possible with little to no delays for the entire market to participate fairly. Thank you.
