Dear SEC Commissioners, As a concerned investor, I am writing to express my views on the need further to enhance transparency and fairness in the securities market. While the SEC's recent proposal to reduce access fee caps is a step in the right direction, completely eliminating exchange rebates would further promote market integrity and level the playing field for all participants. In addition, I strongly recommend accelerating the implementation of the revised round lot definition and odd lot dissemination on the Securities Information Processor (SIP). This will not only enhance reporting efficiency but also reduce delays, thus enabling investors to make more informed and timely trading decisions. I believe that taking these steps is crucial to regain public confidence and trust in the market, particularly in light of recent events like the GameStop controversy. As an investor, I value transparency and fairness, and I urge the SEC to prioritize these principles in its rulemaking and oversight of the securities industry. Thank you for your attention to these important matters. Sincerely, Household Investor.
