    Seeing Three Scenarios for GeoEye [view article]
    You article is out of date. The launch was successful yesterday (6 September) and GeoEye-1 successfully deployed and responded to ground station commanding. The only other step is the calibration/ certification phase which is expected to be complete by mid to late October. Reply

    Dual Degrees, PHD in either?

    Track record?...

    It either works or it doesn't, what sort of straddle creates a win regardless of the position taken from the Scenarios you have envisioned. I'd really like to know so I can apply it to everything and never, ever lose another dime.

    What are your worst case scenarios?

    The time to worry is when nothing can go wrong.

    I have a Conspiracy theory. There will not be a "certification&qu... Everything will go as planned, function perfectly but by that time the Military will have personal uses for this and other Satelites. National interests will supercede commercial ones.

    So I would wait until they have received the go ahead. If it has the potential you envision, missing a few points won't matter in the long run.

    GEOY, will take a look, thank you.

    Agree with Chris. The launch was the big headlines. Final certification and first images sold, when these events happen, may not even make the news. Even though the launch was actually a low risk event, I think many people over-exaggerated the chance of failure due to the mental images we all have of rockets blowing up on the launch pad.

    With stocks in today's market it's important to look at possible downside.
    Between now and final certification, what might happen to GeoEye to cause the company to lose value?

    • The satellite isn't going to fall out of orbit.
    • Past accounting problems are now resolved.
    • Likely there will be little negative news during the certification process.
    • The demand for shares by those who have shorted to hedge their bet on the launch may cause price to rise rapidly over the next month.
    • Looking ahead, revenues are expected to grow quickly.
    • Any adverse geo-political events will only make GeoEye's services more valuable.

    So for the next month or two, I see virtually no chance for GeoEye to lose value.
    What's not to like? I think it makes no sense to sell shares now.

    Mr. G,

    Yea, it was pretty exciting, sort of surreal in a sense, especially thinking about how they are able to pinpoint exactly where they are going to enter a certain space, etc.

    I had a good time watching it, even if I was a little bit nervous!

    Let's hope the satellite checks out, and works as it should, and if it does, then it's full steam ahead for GeoEye.

    Chris

    I watched the launch also. It was more exciting than college football! I too have a vested interest. I may add to my position Monday if Mr. Market does not get too excited. Again, thanks for the recommendation! Reply

    It's a good thing the U.S. Governments getting another eye in the sky. They should could use one now that N. Korea is gettting to Torch up again. Reply

    He may be right about GeoEye. That is quite a big moat. Not just everyone can launch their own imaging satellite. Reply

    The only company he picks that I know is CVU and the fact that he picked it is enough for me to lend credibiity to his other picks. CVU has a huge backlog of orders for production of niche plane and copter parts for some rather significant players in the industry. Reply
