Note to Sirius XM: Use Buzz Words on Tomorrow's Earnings Call [View article]
Shite stock, but then if you wer brave, lucky or smart enough to have bought it at 5 cents, then you feel pretty smart right now. This hobbling horse had some legs. At this point though, with the company valued at 2 billion, and annual revenue of a little less than 2 billion, it does not seem to be much of a bargain. However, I could be totally wrong, especially because many market participants will look at the 50 cent share price and think it's cheap. And they have it in their car! The iphone thing is a gimmick, though it doesn't hurt. I don't think it will make much of a difference to their bottom line.

Yes, and you losers that have been bullish on this still think you are right, hopefully this has taught you a bit of humility and not to follow f---king blogs for investment advice

this is no longer a speculative stock, and no one is going to pile on, it's done and you are, unfortunately, the victim of the bigger fool approach to investing, i.e. you are the one left holding the plastic bag of dogsh--t, which is my metaphor for sirius stock, all the best
p.s. this stock was a hype stock (momentum stock) 5-7 years ago, but it's a different time now, move the f--k on

"If a loss in shareholder value were the yardstick used by all companies, the world today would be without CEOs, unless of course, they ran hedge funds."
it IS the yardstick for a PUBLICLY traded company, and those companies SHOULD be with ceos that maximize PROFIT and therefore SHAREHOLDER VALUE, what the f--k else is there for a publicly traded company to do, that is their raison de etre. ceos that can't do it, should retire

Your comparisons to other stocks' declines are flawed, unless your point is that other stcoks went down too. The magnitude of sirius's decline is much larger than let's say Google's and the overall markets (60 and 40% respectively). Sirius went went from 3.50 to 19 cents, that's a 95% decline. Here is some basic math, to go back to 3.50, the stock has to increase...1600% percent, Google's just has to increase 173%, still a lot, but you get the idea. I agree that this stock is super speculative, I am glad I was probably more lucky than smart when I sold it at 3 something with a small loss.
I hold a small position (relatively) and at this price, it's an option. I.e. it could completely lose value or go up a few hundred percent.
They are in a tough place with the debt, but they do have the advantages of having agreements with car makers to install their technology and the fact that the rechnology is good for driving, unlike wifi, which may go in and out.

IMNJC, you may or may not have a point, while it is true that wifi is spreading, and some cities, such as Cerritos and I believe San Francisco, have complete WIFI coverage, WIFI is by no means everywhere.
Satellite radio's advantage is that it IS everywhere. As you are driving, especially on a longer road trip through perhaps remote areas, you don't want to lose your reception. This is the nice thing about satellites. They need to deliver more video and monetize the size of their audience though unobtrusive channel or time sponsorships.

as far as not being able to short stocks under 5$, not necessarily so, e-trade lets you short stocks over 3$ , so it depends on the brokerage. as far as the person who is upset with the "move to a communist country" comment, this company needs to come up with a VIABLE business model iinstead of f--king around like they have been, and commericals are such a viable option that works for everyone else. so I say, you tried, you failed, and now try something that your peers do that actually works. also go beyond radio, radio is almost dead, i.e. expand into tv, gps and internet access inside vehicles
disclosure: i hold a small position in sirius at a very low price, it's a speculative stock

Hey, look at cable or any other subscription service (even a magazine, a seemingly dying medium). What do you see? Commercials. sirius has tried to reinvent the wheel and failed, so sirius management should pull their heads out of their asses and emulate what similar companies are doing well. burning billions of dollars in cash is not good business
Sirius Investors Face Difficult Decisions: It All Boils Down to Faith [View article]
Hey, a wake up call. I've been reading this clown for a few months now. In that time sirius went from 3.50 to 15 cents. What should that tell you? Unless this person told you to sell this stock a year ago, their opinion is worthless in helping you determine the prospects for this company and this stock. That should be perfecly clear. So wake the f--k up. Thank you
An iPhone With Satellite Radio - Gasp! Really? [View article]
you are dreaming if you think companies like Nokia care about Sirius. You know how you can test that? Check how many subscribers subscribe exclusively to the internet feed and not for in-vehicle broadcast. I would like to know that. My guess is that number is not significant.
My advice to Sirius, introduce more commercials and sell it to your consumers as a positive by marginally lowering the subscription fee. You can have a daily sponsor per music channel, you got to monetize.
And add more TV channels in HD, plus GPS, radio is pretty much dead

stockgal, you sound cute. a short refers to selling a stock short: you borrow a share of stock and immediately sell it, then at some point you have to buy it back and return the share you borrowed
so, if you can buy it cheaper, you make money when the stock price goes down. so, shorts make money when the stock price declines.
