I wish to share some TA expertise here. I printed charts of some stocks I am paying particular attention to this coming week. I arranged them on the floor in my office(I work at home) Jennyanydots, my cat, was present, per usual. She sat there as still as observing prey, calmly surveying the pattern of paper on the floor...this is what we call our trading floor...She slowly became prone, there was a slight tail twitch...then that pounce I have come to love so dearly... Straight to the HDIE chart...one paw landed on the moving averages convergence point 30 days ago at 2.0, the other paw fixed at a point way above 3.583....at a point approximately where 7.5 would be, about an inch off the paper actually and on to the rug... These are short term picks she makes, usually about five to seven days... For what it's worth. Usual disclaimers apply. Happy to be with all of you on this one. Best, cd

I'm guessing that the BIG news is somehow related to this?? [From 1997 Annual Report) The Company is aware of the potential issues associated with the programming code in existing computer systems as the year 2000 approaches. The primary issue is whether or not computer systems will properly recognize date-sensitive information when the year changes to 2000. Systems that do not properly recognize such information could generate erroneous data or cause the system to fail. Management does not anticipate that the Company will incur either significant operating expenses or significant capital expenditures to be year 2000 compliant with respect to both its internal systems and the software tools that it markets. In fact, the Company's software tools and services could be utilized by HIE's customers and prospects to enable their systems to become year 2000 compliant. sec.yahoo.com Major alliance re Y2K?? Gerry p.s. I know nothing...just speculating.
