Demian,
The author is an idiot. Those are DISH numbers. Just another ignorant "professional journalist".
The short trade on SIRI is over IMHO.......
True, but allowing it to trade on Tuesdays avoids the $9.95 instant trade fee and the surcharge of trades of over 1,000 shares. (Last time I did a 10,060 share trade and paid about $36 in surcharge fees) I do agree that I am running a good chance of obtaining shares at a higher price, but I’m focused on the bigger picture of $1+ SIRI trading so whether I pick them up at .15 or .18, I'm still netting a reasonable profit.
But the manipulation isn't.

watching stem, which 5-10yrs away from anything viable, compared to siri...wanna puke!!!
Hi, That 36 was .0034 per share. using the tuesday open price you pay .015 more per share. (159 extra compared to 36) At todays price you could buy an extra 1000 shares. If you make 4 trades a month your coming out 4k shares fewer per month.
It's your money if your not worried then it's all good. (.01 increase on 4k shares is only 40 but that pays the commision on 10k shares)
I know right, the misery continues...watching stem, which 5-10yrs away from anything viable, compared to siri...wanna puke!!!
Just bought 10,000 more at .1495 now have 40,000 at .35 avg. With Scottrade commish was 11.48 ...I will keep averaging down...still more dry powder left.

I'm sorry but Sharebuilder sucks.........there are much better alternatives.
You can lose tons of money trying to save money. You really need the ability to buy and sell in extended hours.....
