Naked shorting is illegal. HAH. If only these rules were enforced. If only infinite loopholes didn't exist.
I support the changes and request for more transparency in our financial ecosystem, especially around naked short selling.
With all due respect, your current rules are useless and are easily ignored and/or side-stepped. There is no transparency in the sector concerning shorts. Numbers are self-reported and easily manipulated, hidden, or misrepresented. Without mandated, accurate, and daily transparency of short data, the entire stock market is subject to malfeasance.

In a fair and open market there should be transparency and a level playing field for all investors; be they retail or institutional. The # of shares shorted should be available IN REAL TIME throughout the trading day. Dark pool trading must be eliminated.
