I wasn’t really thinking ban anything, just limit it. I mean one thing that could help is if you broke large funds up just like monopolies should be broken up but are increasingly not broken up. Not only should that be better for competition but it helps eliminate “too big to fail” single points of failure. I just don’t know how anyone can break up a monopoly anymore. Like alphabet/google should have been broken up a long time ago.

China "limits" shortselling. That should tell you everything you need to know. Restricting short selling is an anti-capitalist controlled-economy idea.

Enforcing existing antitrust laws and extending them to large funds capable of market manipulation is not a bad idea, but hard to implement. Easier would be to just not bail them out, and let the ones that are "too big to fail" fail like they deserve to. Too big to fail is bullshit, and it was fucking ridiculous when Obama bailed those companies out. But our government is corrupt and globalist af, so what are you going to do short of an armed revolt? Nothing you can do, and armed revolt is not encouraged.

It is unacceptable that any entity should get special treatment like that and it flies in the face of everything that every American should believe, even the democrats.
