Until this stock gets some real volume trading will continue to be erratic. I think there will be more opportunities to buy below 28. Today's action is probably due to a CNBC announcement that SDII may benefit from Ford's announcement to begin putting side-impact air bags in vehicles. When the dust settles we will probably drift back down below 30. But if this stock gets any analyst coverage or a few more institutional investors, it can take off big time.

The side impact airbag announcement by Ford will be followed in time by by other Auto OEM's. The future looks very bright for SDII, but they seem to have litle desire to secure analyst coverage. My discussion with IR at SDII indicated they are benefiting from the recent problems at competitor [OEA], and on the automotive side are running very close to full capacity. Side impact airbags at Ford will mean a significant [but future] increase in output, and more capacity addition. SDII also seems to think they have a 'leg-up' on competition in the variable rate initiator [for children]. P.S. I'm not currently holding an SDII position.
