Re: Stockholder
iamz, No, I do not hold any shares or options on HDI. In fact, I have no vested interest whatsoever in what their stock price does.
However, as an NASD Series 7, 9, 10, 31, 63, and 65 licensed financial advisor, (now inactive, due to my choosing to leave the indiustry to pursue this career in motojournalism), I do feel qualified to dispense advice on the merits of reacting to market news. In my opinion you buy stock because you believe in that company. You hold that stock for a looooong time and try not to react to short-term news and public panics. If you want to day trade or try to otherwise "time" the market, you must be a much smarter investor than I am, because using old public info as a live trading tool just doesn't seem to work for anyone in the long term. -Sean
