At this point 15-20 seems unrealistic. With no volume the last 2-3 weeks and the stock slowly going down, how can we be bullish here. The comments when we slipped from 10, are the same comments now as we slip into the 5's. I am glad everyone is confident and buying more, but it appears we should be concerned.

You know where I stand. Massive margin selling today at all 3 firms. that is the problem with small firms like the ones that currently cover HDIE. Their customers live on margin. They margined HDIE up to their nexk. When it went up they use margin cash to buy other small caps and if they go down they have to sell HDIE as well. Same with internet investors who are mostly unsophisticated and inexperienced investors who margin everything they can and then have to sell on a downturn. As the stock falls it just compounds the problem. I remain as bullish as ever about HIE's business

I never really like buying on the way down....however, this seems to be a good company with excellent prospects and is in the right industry. As for the volume on the down side....the dealers only buy what the think they can re-sell at a profit....at this point there is a real shortage of buyers.

I sense a new group of shareholders are acquiring what others are forced to sell to cover margin positions.

The only good sign has been alot of block trades. (5k or more)

Why did Lehman start making a market in this stock....certainly not just to sell or sell short....hmmmm

I am hopeful the company may pre-announce better than expected earnings....wouldn't that be good news for a change.

Bought more this morning at 5 1/8...that's it for me....until we start a definate uprend....

good luck,

bob
