The U.S. Securities and Exchange Commission is set on Friday to adopt new rules that will increase transparency of short-selling, the controversial practice of betting against stocks that drew new scrutiny amid the GameStop saga.The SEC’s five commissioners will vote on the rules, which were first proposed in late 2021 and early 2022, on Friday morning.
The practice has long been divisive, with critics accusing short sellers of trying to hurt companies and short sellers arguing that they help root out fraud and corporate misconduct. Since at least 2021, the Justice Department and the SEC have also been investigating potential manipulation by short sellers and hedge funds around the publication of negative research reports.Specifically, institutional investors would have to report gross short positions to the SEC monthly and certain “net” short activity for individual dates on which trades settle. The SEC would then publish aggregate stock-specific data on a delayed basis.
