Next time you enthusiastically support a stock, remind me to jump in with both feet. My take on this and not specific to HRC is that the health care business has really been under a lot of pressure and no one wants to be investing in an unpredictable quagmire. Unfortunately when something falls 40% there is no assurance that it won't fall another 40% a week later. I see that OXHP and has not really recovered from its debacle, and Beverly Enterprises seems to post new lows annually despite some insider buying and periodic bullish write-ups in Barrons. HRC may turn out to be a gem in this thing, but it reminds me of something Buffet once said and I may be paraphrasing- it was about being in a business where you do not have to be too bright too make money at it, right now it doesn't seem to pertain to health care. How could we tell when this industry starts to turn around? BTW there was a plug for GZSP in last week's Barrons.
