With the election right around the corner, I came across this interesting cartoon. I chuckled when I read it, and figured SiriusBuzz Readers may like it regardless of their politics, or favorite candidate. That being said, Who are you voting for?
I guess I just don’t sense the urgency. Knowing all we know as shareholders and WHAT happened with the merger delay. If we had a crystal ball and could have SEEN what was going to happen…we ALL would have sold last year.
SO…when I hear they are considering a 1 for 50 Reverse Split…THAT is LIKE having a DAMN CRYSTAL BALL in my opinion.
We ALL lived thru the shorts COMPLETE annihilation of this stock. We ALL KNOW that they are SALIVATING at the chance for another go…especially before Sirius reports forth quarter earnings or has a chance to refinance the debt.
If this vote goes thru on December 18th….it’ll be a Friggin FEEDING FRENZY. Longs will not only lose 50 times their ORIGINAL shares….their remaining shares will be RIPPED to FRIGGIN PIECES.
Don’t you see that Tyler? I know you aren’t a financial advisor….but don’t you have a responsibility to warn people about this VERY REAL possibility?
PM - would you consider that Bush was elected based on your statement that, “the President of the United States gets elected based on stength of character.”
Who judges another person and their “strength of character”?
Someone that calls his wife a c@nt? Someone that has flip flopped on almost everything he recently stood for? Someone who wrecked 3 US planes in the service and a fourth almost being lost due to his admitted “daredevil manuevers” and didn’t get demoted because his father was an admiral in the Navy?
We could go on and on about Obama as well but to say that McCain has better character than Obama is reaching.
No one “knows” who will be the best president. People can only give opinions. But we will eventually find out if the person that is elected is a good president.
One thing is for certain, whoever is in there will have one of the most difficult presidential terms relating to the economy in 75+ years. The piper is going to get paid one way or another no matter who is sitting in the oval office.
Shorts will control an equity that is surrounded by uncertainty. If Sirius XM is going to do a reverse split, it will be because they are in danger of being delisted…. which will mean July or August of 2009.
By that time we will have Q3, Q4, Q1 and Q2 under our belts, with plenty of data to see where this company is headed. If at that point in time shorts are still in control of this equity, then there is far more to worry about than the reverse split.
Shorts took advantage of SIRI and XM during the merger process because they could. The companies were virtually defenseless. Shorts remain strong because there is no real data out there for people to measure, and the economy is in the toilet. Someone can have just as strong an argument that SIRI will fail, as they can for why it can succeed. That creates uncertainty, and uncertainty breeds pessimism.
I would rather see a reverse split than the company being taken private. The big issue is that people need to prepare for the reverse split to happen. They need to develop their investment strategy now, by using as much information as they can get their hands on.

Other than that….keep up the great work.
Salomi,
There is prose for those that choose
And be hosed to those that bemuse
I usually try to avoid the topic of politics or religion in mixed company. Always a combustible topic.
I think the passions of our political views got all mixed up with out frustrations about Sirius….
and Wah-lah!
At least the cartoon wasn’t portraying Muhammed and that this isn’t a Muslim extremist board! Lol.
Then we’d be in some SERIOUS trouble.
Cheers,
8 more days my friends. 8 more days and we find out some more news.
