This Current Report on Form 8-K is filed by HouseRaising, Inc., a North Carolina corporation (the “Registrant”), in connection with the matters described herein.
Item 8.01 Other Events
On May 9, 2005, the Registrant filed a letter with the NASD, which requested an investigation into what management termed a “wave of coordinated naked short selling” in the Registrant’s common stock over a three month period of time. Management believes that the coordinated short selling activity may have contributed to a decline in the closing price of the Registrant’s common stock from $2.00 per share on February 1, 2005 to $0.53 per share on May 6, 2005, and this coordinated effort may have violated NASD rules, as well as applicable federal securities laws.
SIGNATURES
Pursuant to the requirements of the Securities Exchange Act of 1934, the registrant has duly caused this report to be signed on its behalf by the undersigned hereunto duly authorized.
