I firmly believe that the extra stock available for sale because of the recent preferred conversions is the cause ,IMHO, of the recent plunge in UIS stock, it only magnifyed the drop......the preferreds were mostly owned by institutions.....they had already made tons of mony on the dividends they collected over the years......their conversion price was $29.75.......but with the accumulated dividends some of this stock, bought when the prefferred were cheap junk bonds essentially......some of the fund managers may have a very low cost basis....$0.00-$10.00

Something to think about......the don't belong to those conservative preferred guys.....they are a value and growth play now......and they're whole different set of lunatics.

I'm in at 23.25....and feel very good with this LONGTERM investment.....1-2 years.
