 As an individual investor I support the 15 minute reporting requirement, th cost and the effort for this are justified to prevent fraud and prevent hiding in loopholes.

Also, short selling in the dark harms true competition and price discovery so victimized companies needs a greater ability to defend themselves against these short sellers.

And lastly, we as a retail investors will benefit from increased transparency.
