Anavex Life Sciences Corp (AVXL)

[sokol]

Receipt of a subpoena means nothing other than that the SEC is conducting an investigation. Witnesses (innocent parties), naturally or obviously, receive subpoenas in instances like this to enble the SEC to obtain information about unusual stock activity. We all know that the activity of Anavex stock has been very unusual -- that is what everyone on this board has been constantly posting about (manipulation of AVXL stock). Many of us believe that this manipulation involves naked shorting, for example. Anavex's records are certainly needed to do a complete and thorough investigation.

SEC investigations are generally confidential.

If the SEC makes a preliminary determination to recommend emforcement action, it may provide a notice informing the target of the investigation of the proposed charges and the target can then voluntary set forth their position. Otherwise, the investigation by the SEC is confidential.

I believe that third parties (not the Anavec corporate entity) are being investigated, but the SEC investigation of those parties is confidential. Therefore, Anavex (nor anyone else) knows what the SEC is investigation. I do not believe that Anavex is the target. If it were the target, it would know. Keep in mind too that this is simply an investigation, and it may result in no SEC action whatsoever. My best guess is that this may be an investigation of naked shorts. Now, ask yourself: What is most likely being investigated? If you conclude it is most likely naked shorting, who is it that may be doing this naked shorting? Someone like GS or someone like Missling?
