Dear Secretary Countryman: 

I am writing in strong support of rule No. 34–94313; File No. S7–08–22 Short Position and Short Activity Reporting by Institutional Investment Managers 

I feel that legislature for mandated reporting of short positions taken by hedge funds, banks, and other financial institutions should be written and enforced. These rules should be enforced under penalty of fines that are a strong percentage of the monetary value of the unreported short position. These delinquencies in reporting of these positions should be investigated daily. This information should be made public and readily available for all retail investors to monitor. The vague and unreliable information given to the public must end. Thank you for your consideration. 

Sincerely, 

A Concerned Investor
