Enrique Varas Comment On Regulatory Notice 21-19

As an individual investor I would like a fair market with the same information and resources open to all for investment researchers, from big hedge fund firms to individual investors, me. It is completely unfair Short-sellers can sell naked shorts, or empty shares or whatever you want to call them while, I, not a big [REDACTED] firm, have to pay for each of my shares from my hard earned money.

The current US market is tainted with fraud, with the regulatory agencies being seemingly aware or not doing their function properly. Through complacency - years of unchecked fraud and market manipulation have been allowed to happen with impunity. The counterfeiting practice of naked shorting has happened for many years, with nothing being done to rectify the illegality of the market conditions. Naked shorting is not legal. - Conditions need to be met by regulatory agencies to ensure it doesn't happen.

I JUST WANT THE RULES TO BE ENFORCED FOR ONCE. YOU GUYS ARE SUPPOSED TO PROTECT THE RETAIL INVESTOR. What is happening behind closed doors is unbelievably evident. THEY ARE OVERLEVERAGED yet have not been called. AMC retail investors own the float and they continue to borrow shares they find somewhere. How can you claim to be for us when their penalties are a slap on the wrist. please protect us.

First, any organization or entity should have five times the amount of collateral to support a short position. Dark pools where synthetic shares are utilized to manipulate market share price to falsely depict covering of shorts should be deemed illegal and regulations should be placed to cease and detect. If an entity fails to deliver on a short position, their position should be liquidated and all resources should be utilized to recoup positional price AND the entity should be penalized a substantial percentage of their liquidation.
