Between cell phones, iPods, satnav systems, plug-in toasters, and the countless "conveniences" found in modern vehicles, driving has become a serious challenge. Thankfully, Sirius XM (SIRI) is looking to make things a little easier by combining its subscription radio service with a new iPod/iPhone station. The XM SkyDock goes on sale this month, and it'll let you surf the XM airwaves via your handheld device, all while charging the battery. Sounds like a nifty holiday gift -- though of course, you could just download the free Sirius XM app and call it a day.

    That would be incorrect. Institution money doesn't look at stocks with low ratings. But the bottom line is making money. I wish I could be the guy (I work for a regulated industry on investing) who could recommend buy on this stock. I'm sure the boss would have you over for dinner and fun with his wife LOL. Or maybe he would take credit fr the idea? LOL

    ALERT - Mel and the board announced intention to sell all shares upon vesting. This is NOT a good sign. Could be setting the time table for the rev-split. The rev-split is on the way.

    Sirius XM Executives Intend to Sell Shares

    The Wall Street Journal

    Granted millions of company shares in May, five top executives at Sirius XM Radio Inc. disclosed their intention to sell them all upon vesting. So far, they have sold seven million shares for nearly $3.2 million.

    The last time an insider at the company made a purchase larger than a few hundred dollars was in August 2008, when Sirius XM Chief Executive Mel Karmazin bought two million shares shortly after the merger of Sirius Satellite Radio Inc. and XM Satellite Radio ...

    Siri-Dumb where in the article does it say Mel is selling shares? Stick to the article not your editorial version. By saying no you may have bought yourself sometime. Not much but some.

    I need your guidance. "Siri Doom" quoted Mel & Company were selling shares prior to the reverse split. I was under the opinion there would not be a reverse split within 10 months if the stock regained $1.00 a share or higher for 10 days and the stock would not be de-listed. Is this true or just more crap "Siri doom" is Blabbing. I did see where three Board members sold shares on October 2, 2009 through insider trading information.. Im long on Siri but I try to learn from you intelligent Traders. Its good to hear anti-Siri news if it is legitimate. This helps me understand the risk I am taking.

    Answer the question. Do you get paid for blogging? Do you work for SIRI?

    You asked me and I gave the answer NO. I blog about SIRI because of my personal interest.

    I have never knowingly given false or misleading info on SIRI. I have and always indicated when I give an opinion. You can NOT be succesfuly suied for telling the truth or giving an opinion that comes true.

    Every blog I have issued on SIRI in the past 6 months has come true. Every single one. I get attacked and censored here for issuing bad news. I can not help that the news on SIRI is bad. I tell the story to save others from loses when possible. Yet, I get attacked here for the effort.

    So, answer the question... What is your excuse...

    Who are the top 5 executives in SIRI? Does the top mean the very top? Does the CEO start at the top? Is Mel the CEO? Is Mel one of the top executives?

    What does top mean? IT MEANS SOMETHING FOR PEOPLE HERE TO ARGUE ABOUT!!! Sugar coated fairytales a coming…. Don’t worry it is bad news and will be Censored from Seeking Alpha comments…

    Call the Wall Street Journal and tell them you don't like bad news on SIRI. Discredit and bash them for a change...

    The Skydock works great with the new Pandora app.

    Keeps the phone charged and shoots Pandora over FM to any stereo radio...

    Anyone who posts seven comments in a row, as SIRI-Doom has done, either has psychological problems or is a chronic "basher".
    Take your pick as to which of these two categories (or both) SIRI-Doom fits into. There is no tie in between executives selling vested shares and the certainty of a reverse-split sometime in the future. These subjects have been well worked over in recent weeks, but you can be sure SIRI-Doom will continue to misrepresent and alter the facts to fit his misguided agenda. Sirius XM definitely faces the negative considerations mentioned in actual news releases this morning, but there are also many offsetting positives now in place and coming on stream in future months to address these considerations. The stock is already trading at levels that have built in dire considerations, such as possible bankruptcy, etc., so current holders have already made the decision that value exists with SIRI trading well below 1.00. It is now up to the company to demonstrate credible performance going forward, starting with the upcoming 3rd and 4th Qtr. releases in November and February.

    Siri-Dumb, my answer is a resounding NO. I am a simple man that invests in companies I believe in and not what bloggers tell me not to. If you say you are not paid I believe you considering you would be facing prosecution if you lied. All I want is a fair shake when it comes to commentary about any company trying to make it. As you are fully aware Sirius was sabotaged by the Terr. Radio lobby and the FCC. If it the merger would have been passed, as it should have been, in a timely manner we would not be here today bickering about a sub par stock price. This stock would have been circling the earths atmosphere with the satellites it uses to transmit some of the best content on radio. All I and everyone else here wants people like you to do is be honest in your opinions and commentary. If you can't do that I feel sorry for you as a person.

    Doesn't matter how rediculous they are the amount of debt looming over will mitigate any good numbers. I would sell now and buy back at .40. Trust me, it will go at least down to .40 again probably in the near future.

    Gray days are on the horizon sad to say.

    Someone commented it didn't matter that insiders are selling because they are just taking profit. That's hogwash to think that way. They are selling because of the reverse split and also the rarity that this stock will go up higher.

    They know something negaitive is on the horizon like reverse split.

    Get out now while you have some of your money.

    I might change my buy point to .35 when it goes down to .40. We'll see with the looming debt and reverse split on the horizon. This stock is for unsophisticated investors only. Mel even made this comment. Here's another hint that evidentally I'm the only one that caught on. When all this BK study stuff started surfacing what has Mel done. Nothing! Hasn't come out and said nothing. He's a horrible CEO and if he cared the least bit about investors he would have come out and mitigated all this news.

    Now give me my bananna back.
