Greetings,


I am an individual retail investor, and I would like to express my sincere opinion regarding the proposed rule SR-NSCC-2021-801.

I believe this rule - if enacted- is a step in the right direction towards accountability for those who engage in the short selling/stock borrowing program. It is time for an update to the current RegSHO closeout requirements, and I believe that this SLD change in process from Monthly to Daily settlement is progress.

I would like to see this rule passed and implemented immediately.

In addition to this ruling, I would appreciate seeing the creation and implementation of stronger penalties enacted for non compliance and violation of this rule.

Thank you for your time, and I appreciate u your consideration in this matter.


Regards,

Lloyd Bickford
