To whom it may concern, I support the SEC proposal S7-32-10 and implore representatives to take this step in the right direction to better align our market transparency. This is an improvement in the right direction, but more is needed. Confidence in our markets starts with transparency to how they operate. Confidence will flourish in our markets if we can take the necessary steps to weed out these unethical practices by governing financial bodies for their own gain. Make a difference! Retail investors deserve to know that when they purchase a security, it will be theirs, and said security will not be subjected to unlimited naked shorting. Retail investors also deserve fair and adequate price discovery for their purchases. Changing the interval from once per week to once per day is the right way to start unraveling some of the damage being done. Any business or institution that wants to invest or operate in the financial system should be doing everything in their power to operate within the laws set by the commission, and the cost of business should be abiding by those rules in lieu of a ‘if/then’ calculation to determine if a fine is a lower cost than following the law.
