 Hello Regulators I am once again reaching out in a desperate attempt to bring additional clarity and transparency in our markets. It is actually a bit maddening we are in 2022 and this isnt already a thing but here we are. Anyone one or entity that has a long position of a substantial size must file a 13F however, when it comes to shorts its as dark as a black hole. At this point in time the current rules fail to distinguish economic short exposure or how they got to said position whether that is through derivatives, securities or swaps. In my opinion I think the short side should be JUST as disclosed as the long positions both intra day, quarterly, etc. We need more public disclosure and anyone pushing that we shouldnt, probably has some type of an agenda but i will digress when it comes to that. i just want a fair and transparent market with accurate reporting of both long and short positions.
