information needs to be accurately and timely reported-- period. That information is lagging is a joke-- that people charge to provide this lagging information is shameful. There should be no platform one has over another. That there is-- is evidence money buys influence -- this is a country of laws.. unless it is in the financial world. The markets are a free for all for those that control,
Let me begin by stating I believe the apparent inability to administer existent provisions regarding shorting and naked shorting demonstrates a gaping hole in the system. FINRA and all related regulatory bodies have ignored the scams played by the hedge funds in hiding their activities as well as permitting a hedge fund to be the major market maker in a security they intend to pummel and drive
The market rules need an overhaul. Penalties for failure to return shares should be steeper base on how much you're shorting.

But let it be the 15th or end of month and there will be volume. Anyway, there
With all due respect "reporting" is a small part of the shorting problem. While I support more immediate reporting requirements, the issue is naked shorting, mislabeling of shorts (as longs), and other shorting malfeasance being used by market makers (i.e. Citadel and Virtu) to manipulate market prices and destroy market integrity. Fines are also the biggest joke. Citadel has been fined
