 I support more transparency for short selling, and reporting every 15 minutes is very important to avoid any possible hiding tactics has we seen with Barclays and anther players.

Also reduces the costs of supervision since they report it, it doesn't require investigation on the processes so much has right now.

Many concerns about the cost of this process ( from the players) its a small price for the probability of short selling specially in a bear market. Also it cost the general public far more money when they over short a securities and end up destroying the American economy either by reducing the ability of a company to finance itself in the market, people who invest and play long in a company to help the company and profit in the process also get hurt on behalf of the short seller when abusive and ultimately if the short seller has a problem it causes many systemic problems that could be diminished with more strict regulations.
