Life Sciences (AVXL). Anavex investors are encouraged to contact Scott +

About the Lawsuit
The securities complaint alleges that Anavex issued misleading
statements and failed to disclose that the Company had used a paid stock
promoter to artificially inflate the Company’s share price. On December
29, 2015, Anavex disclosed that it had received a subpoena from the SEC
on December 22, 2015. Anavex stated, in part, that “[t]he Company
believes the subpoena and investigation relate to the recent unusual
activity in the market for the Company’s shares.” Then on December 30,
2015, Seeking Alpha published a report entitled “Anavex: A
Regulatory Target Damaged By Incriminating Evidence.” On this news,
Anavex stock fell $0.78, or 12.42%, to close at $5.50 per share.
