Short selling of stocks, payment for order flow (PFOF) and Dark Pool trading should be banned completely. Shorting was banned by the SEC during the 2008 financial crisis and it has been banned in several markets worldwide. Shorting has caused promising companies to disappear due to naked shorting, manipulation and corruption that is rampant and obvious with no rule or law enforcement. Full
Dark pools need to be eliminated and naked shorts are ILLEGAL but are still an ongoing practice among hedge funds. SSR needs to also be enforced much better. The hedge funds are able to do whatever they want and don't get punished for their actions. SEC, please step up and stop illegal practices and be more transparent in regards to stock market information.
I work very hard every single day to get extra money to invest into stock market. Why in the world should the market lean towards the rich [REDACTED] that rob us everyday. They should be in jail darkpools gone I'll pay for my orders again. Naked shorts need to be forced close RIGHT NOW. DO YOUR JOB SEC
Selling things you don't own is illegal. Naked shorts and the failures to deliver are a major problem, and I am tired of every institution in this country being stacked against the little guy, while these hedge fund players make billions from manipulating the market and destroying what ever business they want. People should be going to prison for a very long time.
prison time for failure to delivers, ACTUAL penalties for naked short selling. Average American citizen fails to pay two credit card bills and goes to collection... repossession large market makers can just take the fine and continue not fulfilling their contracts to their customers. STOP MAKING FINES A COST OF BUSINESS AND ACT NOW TO STOP FINANCIAL TERRORISM
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.
It is ludicrous to expect any self-reporting method of counting short positions to be anywhere near reliable. Organisations engaged in industrial scale naked shorting will obviously not tell the truth about their positions, especially when the fines for mis-reporting are a tiny fraction of the profits they can make. The only trustworthy method of counting shorts would be to count the shares in
Request more transparency in the market. Elimination of the T+2. Why can someone short/possibly naked short a position more than the entire float? There should be some regulation. Why is Citadel allowed to be a market maker, hedge fund, and a technology company? There are companies that have been disbanded for less. Trust needs to be instilled in the market and that can be done by you. Very
I think when it comes to FTD's and naked shorting that the fines and punishments should be much more than what the companies failing are making in profit. These companies should be held accountable and have assets liquidated if they do not cover FTD's. Settlement periods should be removed. It shouldn't be a T+2 system. How is it fair to the retail investor when it dates days for us
I would like to see these changes implemented as soon as possible. Given the current state of the market and the illegal nature of naked shorting securities, this would be a breath of fresh air. Transparency is key to a fair market and as it currently stands, the market is all bit opaque to individual investors. In order to maintain the faith of individual investors I strongly believe it is
