I urge the SEC to strongly impose requirements for the reporting of short positions by the large corporations i.e. citadel, virtu, Blackrock etc. If the SEC actually does the job its been charged with in protecting the small investor the small investor will support the SEC. On behalf of retail investors I can say, with 100% confidence, that we have not been accurately represented by the media or the financial institutions that have targeted us in their illegal shorting schemes. Internal trading/dark pools are also another tool these financial institutions use to keep retail orders from hitting the lit exchange keeping buying pressure low and manipulating stock price. The current direction of the market concerns me very much. Please protect retail investors.
