 Hi,

My comments on the matter are succint. I am pro transaction by transaction reporting, I do not see any reason why people or companies would ever need to have aggregate reporting where we have seen and continue to see fudged results and an ability to hide or obfuscate true trading information. Hiding within aggregate is an easy trope and does not provide transparency which is what we should strive for. Anyone who doesn't push for transparency is pushing against what would lead to a fairer market. Intra day, 15 minute reporting on transactions I think is bare minimum level of information that could be supplied in this matter I would wish it to be instantaneous if possible.

Other benefits I am pro on this is the ability for companies who were aggressively shorted to be able to defend themselves against a number of companies who can swing undermine companies in the market at will which is incredibly predatory.

Any amount of transparency or increase in transparency is a net long term gain for the economy, it becomes less dangerous, more informative, less fragile all the while this rule would bring more security to the securities market and protect with information the participants of said market.

Anyone who is against this rule is against a more secure and transparent market and is in bad faith against what makes a market fair for all to participate in.

thanks
