 It is time for the SEC to do its job and defend Working families and individual investors.

The ability of large hedge funds to hide behind a vale of darkness without disclosing what they are doing is very problematic.   The long untrackable lending chains that result in the same shares being lent over and over again.   Resulting in further Failure to Deliver the shares required.

The SEC has said.

...mindful of concerns that certain short selling activity be be carried out pursuant to potentially abusive or manipulative schemes...

Thank you
