To whom it may concern, The proposed rule change SR-NSCC-2021-801 is an excellent idea that we should have utilized earlier. Maintaining a minimum amount of “skin-in-the-game” promotes more responsible decisions on the part of large institutional investors and maintains a more accessible market for all by guaranteeing that large financial moves are accompanied by some actual risk. This is imperative as it makes level a huge disadvantage retail and other smaller investors face when engaging in the stock market...consequences. Please approve this rule change in order to maintain and cultivate a market place where all Americans have the same opportunity to profit. Thank you for your time, Stephen Fitzgerald
