Is this a valuation call and/or should we expect bad news and/or do the technicals indicate a short? In buying put options what expiration month should we use.

Default hdi...a short story...

back in 1990 a longtime friend of my wife bot us each one share of hdi as a 10th wedding anniversary gift, you know to frame and hang on the wall. well they never got framed or hung on the wall but they did get held onto...today each share is worth 16 shares due to many splits...what our benefactor paid 20 dollars a share for is now worth over 1000 dollars a share (adjusted)

buy and hold isn't always the answer but it can work extremely well in some cases

scalf i hope your trade works for you...i am long eres currently what is your current take on rmbs?

Default Re: hdi...a short story...

in 1993 i bought my current harley for 12,000. ive rode it over the pass at glacier national park, got hit by bugs in the face, got wet in the rain. it is still worth 12,000 bucks. it seems we both got a good investment from that company.
