SIRI Weekly Thread 8-10-09

[Sirius Roadkill]

My life must be really empty, not only do i not currently have Siri stock but i even started the weeks thread.


/Cry Why didnt you drop back into the mid 40s so i could rebuy?

we warned ya Pluc . . . we tried to warn ya . .

p.s. no harm in getting back in at current levels; yes, you lock-in a loss on the chase but it is not too hard to get to a $0.72 price target based on current metrics

keep the dime and put it toward your buyback; we like havin ya around here

.56 on the way as i type,oh forget that.it's heading to .58 now

Romo,

No, I screwed up! I had a buy in for .49, too late. On my lunch today I changed it to .52. Already went past that. Now we ended at .54.
Waaaaa! So at this point if I get 20 additional shares I'll
be lucky. All my dreams dashed. Visions of acquiring 1,000
extra shares, gone! I'm a failure. That fifth story window is looking
good about now.

Ok, drama over. Any clue as to what I should put a buy in for
tomorrow? I sold at about .57 I believe. Now I've been reduced to
hoping for a penny profit. Oh, how far I've fallen!

Sorry, I had to get that last one in.

Thats ok your just doing the samething Big Ben is doing now and wondering if he should what and keep his .37 bid in or buy it now. I have a feeling if it gets to .70 he will still be wondering if it will ever come back down or if he should raise his bid again from .57 (this was after he raised it from .37 to .47) to .67.


Big Ben, that was not ment to be mean to you, it is just a close example of what I have done a long time before.

I have a feeling that most of us have done this at one time or another.

[Sirius Roadkill]

Awwww, it's still great that you're here!

.54 is the new .40, why don't you jump back in!

Julie

wow! that's scary . . I basically just posted the same thing before reading this post

I like Pluc . . good guy; brings interesting perspective

I have never seen another poster who can make compelling arguments in so few words . . come'on pluc, get back in . .

[Sirius Roadkill]

I personally am a fan of keeping all different views on the threads. The ones that counter mine, are the ones I read with the most interest.

Charles, maybe it's time for a good Pandora article.

Tyler, maybe it's time to post Sirius', Apple download ranking.

Just saying.

socal . . I'm with you on this . . group-think is dangerous; I learn NOTHING in a group-think environment . .

legitimate contrarian views should be respectfully considered and accorded the appropriate weight based on supporting facts . .

imo

p.s. some of the old-timers here will remember "vic/dave" and "jswede"
their contrarian views were not without merit . . . at least at the time they posted that is . . .

[Sirius Roadkill]

SoCal,
I couldn't agree with you more! The varied ideas and thoughts are very helpful.
The name calling is a bit juvinile, but, it's entertaining to a certain degree.

agree with you also candle . . . but I love the name calling (relmor comes up with some of the best I have ever seen)

disclosure: have grown up on Howard Stern; what's better than a well-crafted insult . .

No one mentioned the best news of the day. They got 9.75% on those bonds. Thats 5.25% savings a year on 250 million. Rated caa2. Now we know why they are doing it. Moodys upgrade gives them a better rate. 37.5 million in interest a year. John you can go stick your math on assumptions. Should have waited to hear the rate before you opened your big mouth. LOL
Kidding of course. Just had to get an insult in there. Minus fees, they will save around 11 million a year on this deal. Thats right to there bottom line baby. 8 million in fees on this loan. received 249 million of 257 million. They will save money on this loan as well.

First, I said it twice already I was talking about the one just before this one. Second, where the hell did you learn your math skills? (most likely the same place I learned to type and spell). That 550 million loan cost them about 37 million if I recall (not including the penalty for early payoff), they got a rate of 12% on it, that is a savings of 3% on 500 million or 15 million a year.


Now as to this one I did not even know what was happening when I wrote about the other before.
