Don't sell. Siriusly. This is the tip of the iceberg.

 

And since you brought it up, I have a little rant. Yesterday an analyst (Fulcrum) cut Sirius from "buy" to "neutral." The last time an analyst cut them about a week and a half ago, the stock fell. However instead yesterday it went up $.54. So today Sirius announced that Toyota dealers will be able to install their radios in new cars (HUGE news, which is why it's up so much). So I'm thinking that yesterday there was some insider info on that piece of news, hence the advance in the price versus what should have been a decline. That just pisses me off, even though it helps me out a lot. I've known that there is a good deal of insider trading, but that was just WAY too obvious. Oh well, I guess that's life.

What's stop sell? Is that some Martha Stewart stuff??  :)  I'm assuming that it's the price you sell at if it drops??

yeah, but it is done automatically, in case it plummets one day. So, When I bought it at $3.71, After it went to above $5, I put it at $5... now, I will move that up to $8. If it starts to go down that quickly, i figure its time to get out.

 

A guy who is the head programmer here, and obviously has more free cash that I do, bougth 5,000 shares when it was at $2.25...

 

quick math. He paid $11,250.

His stock is now worth $45,000.

 

He made $33,750 in about 3 months.

 

Not too bad...

It's not going to "go down quickly." Remove the stop sell immediately. Then again, if it continues to go up, it's moot.

Your friend made a great investment. I wish I had bought 5,000 shares.

how do you know this?

The same way I knew to buy the stock way back when. Sirius has better content than XM, and content is what attracts customers, not being bigger or already having more customers, or what analysts with their short-term/sighted opinions say. And with the recent deal with Toyota, and more with GM, Ford, and others surely on the way, the stock will keep going up and up. Then when Stern joins them in 2006, he'll pull more customers and...you get the picture. And by "go down quickly," I'm talking in terms of steve's parameters, i.e. more than $1.

Must be some more good news about to break.

The news is that Toyota's putting Sirius radio in nine 2005 models. Broke this morning.

 

You mean you're bullish on the stock, and you don't even know why it's rising? I can't wait until it starts falling and you keep repeating "I'll hold on, it's bound to go back up."

 

Friggin' amateurs... :)

They already have a deal with Ford, they won't get one with GM. GM is primarily XM because they are one of the financial backers of XM.

Oh, i'm definitely an amatuer, which is why i asked my CFO what to do... he said to put a stop at two or 3 cents below where you want to actually stop and sell... So, I think I will move it to $7.97.
