October 26, 2022 Short positions need to be disclosed so investors can accurately and knowledgeably invest their money in companies. Transparency is the only way to get complete honesty when money is involved. The SEC was formed to protect investors from things like unscrupulous hedge fund managers that manipulate entire markets and companies for the benefit of themselves and their clients at the expense of the average middle class investor. If unreported shorting of stocks is allowed to continue, then the markets will lose all credibility. The way this is decided will be a clear indication of who the SEC works for.
