An individual shareholders right to sell or purchase a publicly traded security should not be hindered. That is one of the various kinds of market manipulation that the government, especially the SEC, should be fighting along side the public. Hindering the sale of a publicly traded security is not a free, open, and transparent market. The millions of retail investors trade security through the only means that is made available by the system. Do not punish them for investing in what is their legal right. The more these rules and changes are made and proposed that help the market makers, the more this brings to light the ongoing problems within the U.S. Stock Market.
