Doc/Thean, This was supposedly compounded by CNBC's Tom Costello who indicated in his NAZ segment that HIFN was downgraded. In fact, that was NOT the case. The BBRS note to field brokers was not bad at all. I saw was what seemed to be a reasonable representation on Yahoo. Fundamentally, this result is a manifestation of a severe problem, analagous to the old game of telephone, where what gets started as the original messages is totally wrong by the time the last person get's it. In this electronic age, you can buy of sell with a push of a button. It's kind of scary that a stock can be butchered with this swiftness, rightly or wrongly. Makes one take pause.. Doc, I think your "large stones" moves will work out. This will move right back up if they're no fire in the story. Steve AMKR and TER both down today, along with the SOX (TER is in the SOX). CREE up nicely, but I think there's more downside, but am waiting to get it lower. Well done on the fiber brutes. Keep an eye for the exit points...
