Re: Reporting of Securities Loans (File No. S7-18-21)


Dear Secretary Countryman:

I am writing in strong support of rule 10c-1, Reporting of Securities Loans.

     As a retail investor I am in favor of a transparent market. Hedge fund short selling and market manipulation by these hedge funds, such as Citadel , undermine the fairness and faith investors have in the markets. Please do all that can be done to protect retail investors and bring transparency to the stock exchange.


Sincerely,
Matthew Buchanan
A Concerned Investor
