"Lately, with the lack of any expected news,"
I think I know what you mean, especially by the tone of your entire post, which makes sense by the way, but there is no real lack of news when compared to the markets at large.
EDIG has had a solid year of very good news and promises more while the overall market remains depressed. Home prices are dropping and many are finding themselves upside down and we now find ourselves facing a massive debt burden while our government bets it all on the come line and nobody knows what this means to us a year or two or three from now.
There's plenty to be depressed about...but not EDIG's prospects at the moment.
