How about banning short selling altogether!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! Whatever happened to buying a stock when you liked it and selling it when you didn't. Short selling is a BIG gimmick to make day traders and hedge funds rich by passing around negative rumors about a company. They could care less if the whole economy tanked as long as they made money.
Unless you ban it altogether, it'll only be window dressing and the collusion will continue to drive down financial institutions' stocks.............
