Just a few articles I’ve seen that say Illegal Naked Short Selling is ILLEGAL. MM or not.


Naked shorting is the illegal practice of short-selling shares that have not been affirmatively determined to exist. Ordinarily, traders must borrow a stock, or determine that it can be borrowed before they sell it short.

And from lawyers and former SEC chair.
