June 2007 was not an ordinary month for Home Depot. Veteran stock market observers have differing versions of what happened. The bare facts are not unusual. A new management team reversed yet another key decision of their predecessors. That happens all the time. You must inform NYSE or wherever you are listed. The rest is your prerogative.
