General’s speaking, the more reporting, the better. Especially when it comes to short interest as well as synthetic short positions. As a day/swing trader, given how quickly the markets move and their volatility, weekly reporting doesn’t help me because I need to operate on the most up to date information possible.

Short interest reporting by all of these entities should have complete transparency. Failures to report on possible FTD’s, never delivering those shares or marking short positions as long should result in repercussions equal to the actions.

There needs to be actual punishments for abusive naked short selling, not just fines. Actual jail time please.

Take a note out of Korea's book and take away every coin of profit from a naked short sale, if nothing else. As for short
We want a fair market with clear short interest reporting. Stop the manipulation. We want fair market please.
FINRA Announces SEC Approval and Effective Date for New Consolidated FINRA Rules; Effective Date: December 15, 2008
"FINRA is considering: (1) modifications to its short interest reporting requirements (Rule 4560); (2) a new rule to require that participants of a registered clearing agency report to FINRA information on allocations to correspondent firms of fail-to-deliver positions; and (3) other potential enhancements related to short sale activity. FINRA believes that these potential changes could
To me, it is absolutely absurd that short positions are not required to be reported. If you require long positions to be reported, why shouldn't short positions? It seems as though the regulators are far too concerned with keeping the status quo and are letting hedge funds run wild, in a largely unregulated portion of the market. We have seen numerous short squeezes this year arising from
