I have been holding HMV shares since floation and yet to make any money. In the meantime, I shorted @ 197.25 hoping to buy at 193 for a quick small gain. Strange no body else seems to be following this stock. All comments welcome.

HMV is sold to Hilco in rescue deal

Restructuring specialist Hilco has clinched a deal to rescue music and DVD retailer HMV.

Hilco, which already owns HMV Canada, said it had acquired 132 HMV shops and all nine branches of the Fopp chain in a deal that could save 2,500 jobs.
