Remove market manipulation. If these acts continue corporations should be fined the exact amount of money for the manipulation they are causes in the market.

Shorting as a market practice is a crazy concept. No other capitalist market allows borrowing something that one person owns, sell it, buy it back at a lower price to profit off their initial lender. Self reporting clearly isn’t working and the ability to borrow stock is way mis-marked. Everything should be labeled and marked in real time so the corruption can be stopped and we play a fair game that can benefit all of us instead of just the rich. Thank you for your time and patience.

Hello and thank you for accepting my comment, it has been brought to my attention that reported short interest on specifically one stock I own (AMC) Entertainment Holdings INC has not been properly reported on and is not portraying the fundamental rule of supply and demand. As a relatively new investor I want to bring to your attention my concern and thank you for the forum to voice my opinion.

Please allow the market to be transparent for everyone. The American people are investing their hard earned money under the assumption the rules are fair. AMC stock is being manipulated behind the scenes weekly. Look into AMC naked shorting. Every transaction should be visible to the public. In my opinion if companies are found to be breaking the rules there needs to be more than fines. As in jail time, rights to be in the market suspended, etc.

Please crack down on those naked shorts, synthetic stocks, and hedge-fund manipulations. Thanks.

There market needs more transparency! Shares shorted should be available in real time during trading hours. Stop dark pool trading! All shares sold should be reported and able to be located at any time! Market manipulation is rampant and hurting retail investors. Please discontinue algorithm trading or at least regulate it more. Naked shorting and Fail to Delivers should carry harsher penalties and be forced to close out their positions much sooner or face total trading restrictions. V/R Alfredo Izquierdo

Naked shorting is illegal.- Conditions need to be met by regulatory agencies to ensure it doesn't happen including federal sentences for those caught selling naked shorts. If I can’t sell you a car I don’t own than it should be just as illegal to sell shares that don;t exist. Short positions need to be reported daily by funds and market makers, and public notice needs to be reported daily on a public website for that purpose, for all holdings and companies in the market. Audits need to happen by regulatory agencies to ensure shorts and FTDs are not being hidden in options.

Short interest should be reported daily, as market condition change rapidly by both institutions and dark pools. Borrowed shares should have a term limit, or should be reconfirmed as borrowed weekly until shares are returned. Shares borrowed off markets, should not be allowed into public markets without proper documentation of how and when they were borrowed and their terms of agreement made public.

All FTD's should be reported daily and all self regulation should stop. All FTD's should be defined in a T1 and settled in a T2. All short positions should be identified publicly. All naked shorts should be excluded and settled with FTD settlements. All fines for violations should be on a per share basis. No more speeding tickets where the fine is cheaper than the position. Let the violators actually go to court or settle for massive fines. Self regulation rules should now be enforced by the regulating bodies.

Greetings, I eagerly support FINRA's step toward a transparent system. I also ask that synthetic long positions generated through reverse conversion of options be tracked as well, it appears there's a direct correlation between that number increasing and FTDs decreasing.
