As horrible as yesterday's events were, sadly I know that there will be individuals seeking to profit from it.....I'm talking mostly about Hedge Fund managers. No matter what the tragedy there will be individuals who seek to exploit it for gain.

How? Stocks that could be seen to have exposure to fear over the attacks in Paris could be targetted in my opinion.

What would a hedgie do? Start selling a targeted stock short, not all in one big shot....but pushing small sell orders through a myriad of brokers to create the impression of a broad based sell off....playing to people's fears.

So what about RVX? Obviously Friday's events have basically zero impact on Resverlogix at this early stage, but that doesn't mean we won't be affected. At times of fear in the market, no matter the reason, you'll often hear of a "flight to safety". RVX, being highly speculative, could be affected if this sentiment takes hold...or if there are players like Hedgies who target it in an effort to spur that fear.

Its said that times of panic and fear...that they're great buying opportunities. For those who are fully invested, with no dry powder to deploy....they can be painful times. But for those of us with the means to buy the fear, there's the potential for big gains when things rebound.

I'm of a mixed feeling....while I wouldn't hesititate to add if I see RVX subject to the type of trading activity I described (a bunch of small sells pushed through various brokers)....at the same time I'd just as soon RVX at least held steady as the shares I own are already averaged in at a profit.

We'll see how it plays out....I'll be ready regardless.
