If the US market looks to be seen as a free market we need to have transparency. Dark pool trading has gone on unregulated to the point of becoming a place where institutional investors can go to hide their elicit trades; this needs to end. All authorized shares should be able to be accounted for at any given time during market hours. Fines and penalties for FTDs and naked shorting of stocks
FINRA, I am just a small retail investor that is quickly losing faith in a fair and transparent marketplace. I would like more frequent public reporting of short positions and more detail in public reports to begin with. Can you help restore faith in the "retail investor" community by requiring extreme transparency at all levels? We need a fair and unbiased referee, without that, I will

Shorting as a market practice is a crazy concept. No other capitalist market allows borrowing something that one person owns, sell it, buy it back at a lower price to profit off their initial lender. Self reporting clearly isn’t working and the ability to borrow stock is way mis-marked. Everything should be labeled and marked in real time so the corruption can be stopped and we play a fair game
Need better eyes on massive shorted stocks regulations blocking naked shares and a sec representative mandatory at every hedge fund Corporation. From what I'm seeing you guys are either paid off or don't know what the [REDACTED] you're looking for. Billions of dollars being stolen from retail investors for more years than you can count on your fingers and nobody has done squat to
