A look at the Operational Cash Flow charts of the 1st & 2nd quarters of 2011 signaled there was trouble.

anyway back to HUSA, how can a $15 stock drop down to $1.50 over the course of a year, and not be tempting as a bargain play? only if the light at the end of the tunnel is not a train.
a battered stock becomes a bargain if they can turn their cash flow around (grow)
after doing some more research in $HUSA, I found out their CEO John F. Terwilliger was previously the chairman of the board and president of both Moose Oil & Gas Company and Moose Operating Co, who declared backruptcy on April 9, 2002. http://onforb.es/M3qJGo
So I don't know if you can say "this person has a bad track record", or if there was other circumstances surrounding the backruptcy of Moose, i.e. the 2001 terrorist attacks and resulting recession.
HUSA has mentioned the oil fields they are involved in have capability / possibility of high production, but can you believe it? plus the uncertainty of drilling for oil / starting a new well...
They did manage to raise addition capital approx 9 million, so there must be people who believe them...
just read the financial statements every quarter.
