60 Minutes report with technicals pointing down. Chart looks very scary. Fraud, if true, could cost them hundreds of millions and possibly billions in the end.

Net income, first quarter, 2008: $133M

Net income, annual for 2007: $119M

11% annual growth rate predicted over 5-year term.

I don't like [HMA] debt burden, but in the world of CAPS, I'll take a chance and let it ride because hospitals generally stay in business over the long run. Will also be interesting to see how Obamacare impacts company margins.

HMA picked a bad time to add an enormous amount of debt to their balance sheet. I would not be surprised to see this stock bottom out.

They focus on the burbs, which is where a lot of the baby boomers are, and they're putting up crushing numbers this year:

Net income, first quarter, 2008: $133M

Net income, annual for 2007: $119M

They're finally figuring out how to make money again.
