Regarding: Reporting of Securities Loans (File No. S7-18-21)
Dear Secretary Countryman:
I am writing in support of rule 10c-1, Reporting of Securities Loans.
As a individual investor who is interested in clear, fair, and transparency I believe this rule is a neccesary step in the right direction to a better market that operates fairly and efficiently. I support 15 minute reporting requirements to prevent illegal trading activity and give better visibility on market opperations day to day. The SEC is commited to protecting the retail investor and this level of transparency will help prevent victimization and disenfranchisement of investors across the board. Alowing insitutions to short companies with little to no oversight allow predatory tactics that are very effective effectively stealing money from investors of companies in the USA's capital markets. Over time little oversight and long lending chains lead to economic abnormalities that manifest themselves when unexpected events take place that change the investing thesis for investors across the board. Thank you for your service, dedicating time to dealing with this delicate issue and
troubled market structure we find ourselves in today.
Sincerely,
A Concerned Investor
