Vanessa A. Countryman Secretary U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission 100 F Street, N.E. Washington, D.C. 205499–1090 Re: Release No. 34–94313 [File No. S7–08–22] Short Position and Short Activity Reporting by Institutional Investment Managers Dear Secretary Countryman: I am an American citizen writing in favor of proposed rule 13f-2, designed to "provide greater transparency through the publication of short sale related data to investors and other market participants." In fact, the SEC's enforcement of the Dodd-Frank Act does not go far enough, in today's technologically advanced age where instantaneous transaction data could be cleared and published in an efficient manner regularly! Daily reporting is better than monthly, so please go after all these financial criminals harder, regardless of whom they sponsor. It is not enough for these criminals to "buy to cover" -- your job is to force them to CLOSE. Your job is to force them to show the Public what they're doing with the People's money, none of which is honest. Too many Americans are at the brink of bankruptcy due to these scandalous practices; defending, therefore, only ultra-monied interests is morally treasonous. It doesn't matter what it costs them; they made billions in bad bets, and they have to pay up. We noticed you delete the comments last time. This time, let the record show the whole world is watching. End this madness. Otherwise the markets will collapse under their own arrogant largesse, and the SEC will be complicit. Sincerely, An Activist Investor
