Dear whomever it may concern, I am in complete, an utter favor of this proposal. I still support this proposal simply because it allows for greater market transparency; as a household investor, who wants free and fair markets for all, this proposal is especially 'in bounds' when other reporting requirements are considered. I continue to support this proposal, in spite of concerns raised by other commenters within the SEC, such as Hester Pierce for example. I have less concern in regards to how it might have the potential to cause liquidity, and other operational issues for large companies or institutions; I am more concerned with capitalism and free markets, thus liquidity or operational concerns should always take a back seat to 'supply and demand'. As such, I can only support this proposal and hope those against it will eventually change their minds and embrace transparency and capitalism; anyone who opposes transparency is a cheater, or a liar, anyone who acts against transparency and fairness is both. I am highly eager to support this proposal, as it protects household investors, and the integrity of our markets; especially in terms of true price discovery and fairness. It allows accurate assessments as to the health of a particular security, in addition to providing additional insights as to why they are being valued on the open markets at the price points they're available. Moreover, it allows all people who participate in the US market, an accurate and up to the date basis of more data and information, similar to the data market makers and other institutions see.
