Tuesday, May 14, 11:19 AM Two old Jonathan Lebed/momentum trader favorites - BroadVision (BVSN +14.9%) and Synacor (SYNC +16.1%) - are shooting higher.

Wednesday, May 1, 8:16 AM Synacor (SYNC) says it has "expanded its relationship" with Verizon to give FiOS TV subscribers the ability to access "TV shows and movies from one online destination [as] the My Verizon website now includes a simple search and discover experience … and the ability to log in just once." No stranger to volatility, SYNC is trading higher by 19% in the premarket. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Wednesday, April 10, 11:54 AM Volatile Synacor (SYNC +9.7%) is among the day's big winners. This morning, the company issued a PR boasting of strong uptake for its Cloud ID Social Login solution, which allows TV Everywhere users to log in via Facebook, Twitter, or Google. Shares remain down 47% YTD, and far below last summer's Jonathan Lebed-fueled highs. Comment! [Tech, On the Move]
Thursday, February 21, 11:04 AM Synacor (SYNC -26%) opened near breakeven following yesterday's Q4 report, but has since plunged to new post-IPO lows.

On its earnings call, Synacor blamed its guidance on a Microsoft co-marketing program for OEMs that requires MSN (rather than Synacor-created start pages) to be the default start page on Windows 8 machines. Shares fell 9.9% yesterday going into the report. (PR) Comment! [Tech, Earnings, On the Move]
Wednesday, February 20, 4:36 PM Synacor (SYNC): Q4 EPS (GAAP) of $0.03 in-line. Revenue of $32.2M beats by $0.11M. Shares -9% AH. (PR) Updated 6:22 p.m.: Shares now -5% AH. Comment! [Earnings, Breaking News, Tech, On the Move]

Tuesday, January 8, 12:19 PM Jonathan Lebed favorite Synacor (SYNC -6.8%) is having a pretty bad day. The launch of Cisco's Videoscape Unity platform, which delivers fresh competition for Synacor's TV Everywhere solutions by means of a more extensive software package, could be a factor. 1 Comment [Tech, On the Move]
Wednesday, December 12, 2012, 12:34 PM Synacor (SYNC +7.1%) is higher after announcing a deal to provide start pages for Lenovo consumer PCs. The company, which has been heavily touted by the infamous Jonathan Lebed, remains well off its July highs. 4 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
Tuesday, December 4, 2012, 9:40 AM Zynga (ZNGA +4%) and Synacor (SYNC +1.9%) open higher after the companies strike a deal that gives Synacor's pay-TV industry customers the option to offer Zynga's games on their portal homepages, and to include Zynga virtual currency in their subscription bundles. Synacor's customer base includes Verizon, Time Warner Cable, and CenturyLink. Recent Facebook-related developments (I, II) make it easier for Zynga to expand its horizons, and arguably give it some motivation to do so. 2 Comments [Tech, On the Move]
