For the sanctity of the free market, the rules being proposed to the NSCC as well as the DTCC are necessary and over due. Closing the loophole institutions use to manipulate fair market value of publicly traded companies is necessary for multiple reasons. this rule will allow for the idea of a free market to exist. Without this idea, there is no reason for an intelligent retail investor to participate in the financial game of trading, knowing that institutions with more capital can control the price of any commodity to fit their agent. SR-NSCC-2021-801 is necessary for the health of the market as well as for protecting the idea of the \"Free Market\" that The United States is built upon.
