hog traded down to 44.70 for a breif moment, i would think the finance dept., and a large amount of inventory and just the overall stock market is why it hit a 52 week low (imo)

Story 5420 (HOG, I/AUT, I/XDJGI, I/XFFX, I/XISL, I/XNYA, I/XSP5, G/CNG...)
  WASHINGTON (Dow Jones)--Democratic senators from states home to
Harley-Davidson Inc. (HOG) production facilities are urging the Bush
administration to press China to drop trade barriers for U.S.-made motorcycles
during meetings next week.
  Four senators, in a letter dated Friday, said U.S. Trade Representative
Susan Schwab and U.S. Commerce Secretary Carlos Gutierrez should bring up
motorcycle trade during trade meetings in Beijing next week.
  "With the (Joint Commission on Commerce and Trade) JCCT, there is a real
opportunity for the Chinese government to demonstrate that trade with China
can be a two-way street," Charles Schumer, D-N.Y., Robert Casey, D-Pa., Herb
Kohl, D-Wis., and Claire McCaskill, D-Mo., said in the letter.
  Harley Davidson's exclusion from the Chinese market affects over 8,500
workers in the four states represented by the senators, they said.

What a waste of money, for the check, the envelope, the machine that had to prepare and stuff this envelope, the mail carrier who delivered it and death of another tree to make the paper.

I agree Candy, but this time it was a really, really tiny little tree.

A mere twig, hardly enough to notice.

How low can it go?  Limbo economics.

It's not just HOG; the market as a whole has taken a major dump.  If I'm looking at the data correctly, we have just lost all the market gains generated in the entire year of 2007 in the space of a month's time, and the bottom isn't in sight yet.  And I love the reaction of our government leaders (you know, the folks who helped create the mess through deficit spending, turning loose the greed merchants, encouraging consumers to spend money they didn't have in their own version of deficit spending, encouraging speculatory practices in financial and housing industries, etc.).  The first thing Bush and Bernanke want to do is increase the deficit even more by issuing immediate tax rebates to consumers and tax breaks to businesses to keep the wheels turning.  I hope the average American realizes that this is just a poorly veiled attempt to delay the inevitable until after the election, and that there is no such thing as a free lunch.  I for one resent the fact that I'm going to take it in the azz with my retirement accounts because other people cheated and worked the system while our regulators sat back and did nothing. The only thing we can hope for now is that the idiots don't turn what should be a relatively short recession into something worse. F--k'n politicians anyway.
