October 29, 2022 I strongly endorse transaction-by-transaction reporting and agree with the proposal of 15-minute reporting requirement. This would provide information making it harder to abuse short-selling and abuse of security-lending. Abuse of this sort make it possible for big players to openly rob the stock market without any repercussions. The acts of abusing security-lending must be put to a stop to allow for a more democratized economy. If rules like these get finalized we could make a step in that direction. The victims of this abuse is not only hard working families in the USA but any individual that relies on a stable economy internationally, which the USA have a big part in. Victimized companies under abuse of security-lending will have a greater chance to defend themself with this rule in place. How can any small group of short selling funds be allowed to take on the responsibility of deciding which companies lives and which dies? I say we let the broad market take that responsibility, not a fund or big player or market-maker or any type of a group. A short seller is not an investor. When a rule like these might make them a target for \"short-squeezes\
