Dear Mr. Gensler, Dear SEC,
despite the fact that I have held exchange traded shares of companies I believe in for more than 20 years, I have just as long been of the believe that the stock exchange is a Casino for the rich who play with the odds in their favor through insider trading, manipulation, fraud etc. .
The Gamestop Saga has resulted in me digging way deeper into the things going on at our international stock exchanges than I have ever done before.
And I did not like what is coming to light, one bit.
Just like the Jeffrey Epstein affair, my most cynical and disillusioned believes have been replaced with even more sinister and overall worse ... if not facts then close to it.
Please pass this proposal and along with it others in order to strengthen the laws guarding us individual investors against the blatant and unacceptable fraud that has been happening and continues to happen on our global exchanges.
If 90-95% of all trades are not happening on \"lit\" exchanges but in closed off darkpools and market makers can essentially print counterfeit (they like to call them \"synthetic\") shares and congress members describe naked short selling as \"an issue so small it's barely worth mentioning\", the international stock exchanges are essentially defunct.
I have been patiently waiting for over a year for the Gamestop Saga to be resolved.
If \"nothing happens\" yet again, or if the punishment does, once again, not even nearly fit the crime, I will pull my and my entire families capital from the international exchanges and will advise everyone who will listen to do the same.
And I will never invest in company shares again.
