BEAM, Circuit Judge.

Jon A. Camp appeals the district court’s order of summary judgment in favor of appellees Alexander Mitchell and James Kidder. Camp alleged that appellees Mitchell and Kidder aided and abetted a violation of securities laws, codified at 15 U.S.C. § 78j (1981) and 17 C.F.R. § 240.-10b-5 (1991) (SEC 10b and Rule 10b-5). The district court held that, inter alia: 1) appellees owed no duty to disclose information, 2) appellees lacked knowledge of the securities laws violation, and 3) appellees did not substantially assist the securities laws violation. We affirm.
