This is my take on things: I strongly feel that there has been a well coordinated effort by hedge funds to milk the average shareholder of low priced natural resource stocks.

Everytime there is positive news the public buy orders flow in as would be expected and each time they are met with naked short selling to some degree. This is just a conspiracy theory but I have witnessed on numerous occasions stocks responding to good news only to go flat at the end of the day. This is pretty much what happened with Roxmark on the day of the news.

These fund guys don't really care, its totally impersonal to them. They may have their hands in 100's of low priced natural resource stocks. They sell on news and keep selling until it shows them a profit. They have the resources because no one is really regulating them. They just keep selling shares until they have a profit. If the stock goes inactive following news, they just keep selling until it bothers shareholders so much that they sell back to them in disgust. This enables these guys to cover their criminal shorting without the stock, just paper sell tickets, thats it.

Somewhere down the line their game will end but until then, don't beat yourself up too much in trying to figure things out differently. These villains are not being challenged by the regulators in any meaningful way.

The other side of the coin is, they can't enter buy orders as easily without paying for the purchases, so they concentrate on the sell side with their naked short sales. They play with, "when will the stock be delivered?" Some years back the hedge funds did a number on a company's shares, Overstock.com. The company took all the prime brokers that allowed the naked shorting to continue to court and they were made to pay by a Superior Court judge in San Francisco. Where was the SEC when shareholders were getting mangled with all the naked short selling? Today's SEC is a farce when it comes to protecting the rights of the public. I have heard that it is easier to get away with naked shorting up in Canada.

"Things they are a changing." The U.S. Constitutions says that the U.S. Treasury shall be the only entitity to coin money. Not so today, the banker's bank, the Federal Reserve, is bailing out all the banks and international brokerage firms with their own newly created money which is adding on the debt for future generations. The existence of the Federal Reserve is unconstitutional but does anyone care? Does anyone care that government regulators are not doing their job that taxpayers are paying them to perform?

The public is getting so bilked with the inaction of their representatives to see that crimes are being allowed to flourish in markets by regulators that one has to wonder about them??? I personally wrote concerning this matter to my US Senator and got nothing back but lip service. She'll never get my vote again!

These hedge fund guys love it when shareholders are glued to their monitors watching every trade. Their bottom line is, they will drive you crazy until you can't take it anymore. Like I have mentioned before, put in your low GTC bids and get involved in something more productive. Volunteer some time in the community, get some physical exercise, educate yourself on monetary science, take a walk along a river or lake and later on in the day after the market closes, check your stocks.

Hold RMK Long and Strong!
