October 8, 2022 When short selling practices occur in the dark and 'current' short sale information is provided long after a position has been entered into, retail investors and the like cannot be aware of the risks that they take on when buying securities. If the SEC is in favor of creating a fair playing field, then an intraday 15 minute reporting requirement should be passed on principle. If the SEC is in favor of creating a fair playing field, why should retail investors have to trade based off of information that is DAYS old when big institutions make thousands of trades in the blink of an eye and have access to current data? This rule would also give more transparency to the markets and help identify earlier when abusive shorting attacks are occurring. More transparency in the markets is always better. I am a full supporter of transaction by transaction reporting. Thank you
