Please enforce margin calls and share threshold listings. Enough is enough Hedgie funds need to pay debut just like the rest of us. Naked shares cancel that. Not allowed to trade in dark pools cancel that. System is no where close to fair for retail traders.

FTD need to be enforced and not delayed with swaps and/or complicated moves not afford to the public. Naked Shares should be banned to prevent fraudulent resale of equities.
Transparency is essential to our “free” markets and recently implemented rules & regulations mean NOTHING without enforcement. I am sickened by the lack of accountability of our government officials and how naked short-selling and other egregious behaviors have continued for far too long by Hedge Fund institutions with ZERO considerations “paid” to retail investors.
