This rule seems intended to exponentially increase share lending without accountability for bad actors, who are making poor choices who are putting everyone at risk. This sort of policy making does not contribute to fair and free markets, and it is frustrating that this is the third time the rule has been introduced. There is no legitimate reason for it to be passed, and I hope that the SEC will do its job and protect out market from these sorts of blatant manipulations.
