Sirius Weekly Thread Week 9-08.09

[TSavery]

I have maintained for quite some time that I observe a 3 day "quiet period" between when I write an article and when I would trade an equity. I have received some emails asking whether I am trading the equity again, and thought it prudent to address the issue here for everyone.

I will not be making any trades in Sirius XM Radio or Liberty Media until at least Friday, September 11th. This notification is not an announcement of an intent to trade, but simply a clarification of what could be my first trading day.

Cheers all

SIRIUS XM Announces SIRIUS FM-5 Satellite has Been Placed Into Service
12:01a ET September 9, 2009 (PR NewsWire)

SIRIUS XM Radio (Nasdaq: SIRI) announced today that SIRIUS FM-5, the newest addition to the SIRIUS XM satellite fleet, was recently placed into service on the SIRIUS network. The new satellite, which was manufactured by Space Systems/Loral, provides improved signal penetration and reception to millions of SIRIUS subscribers nationwide.

FM-5 is now fully operational and broadcasting SIRIUS XM programming and data services to SIRIUS radios in North America. The satellite launched June 30, was guided to its final orbit position, and has successfully completed all post-launch testing.

SIRIUS FM-5 is one of the world's most powerful communications satellites and is the first geostationary SIRIUS satellite, complementing the SIRIUS fleet of three non-geostationary satellites. SIRIUS FM-5's addition to the current SIRIUS fleet significantly increases the broadcast power of the total SIRIUS network. SIRIUS FM-5 is designed to provide more focused power in areas of peak population, such as metropolitan areas on the east and west coast, as well as significantly improving reception when driving under heavy foliage. Its location in a geostationary orbit position over North America (approximately above Texas, at 96 degrees west longitude) assures that home receivers can aim at a fixed point in the southern sky to receive a signal on a constant basis.

"For our SIRIUS subscribers, FM-5 brings significantly improved performance to their cars as well as their homes and offices, or wherever they use their SIRIUS radios," said Terry Smith, Chief Engineering Officer of SIRIUS XM Radio. "We expect FM-5 to provide exceptional service for many years to come, while improving the overall performance, reliability and longevity of our satellite fleet. We congratulate our engineering team on a successful launch and implementation."

The satellite was launched from the Baikonur Cosmodrome in Kazakhstan aboard an International Launch Services (ILS) Proton.

My reply Yesterday to what bassmaster said:


"Hey, maybe he would like to trade the stock again. He may even have a life to get back to."




Comon Tyler you have to admit it, when you seen what I wrote the you were thinking, how did he ever get that idea.

[Hopeful]

Wow, what happened to the forum it is like a ghost town and the stock is at .69 !

[mrmertz]

Okay, I'll post! Anybody wanna look into their crystal ball and guess where the week will end? Low .70's?

[mrmertz]

...your'e right. It is a ghost town in here...zzz...

[aosborn]

if we can get a close above .70 the next resistance is .85 and hopefully it will hold the .70 support level. I told my wife last night I thought we would see .70 by the end of the week. If we don't get it today maybe it tomorrow. I'm happy holding at this level for another 6 weeks when we start seeing the bigger gains.

Where is everybody? Labor day was last weekend. Just leave your work, nobody will notice.

You all should be sitting at your desks posting on SB.

Hello everyone. I think the no mention today on the Apple newswas disappointing, but certain apple experts warned me not to expect anything. FM radio in the IPOD is interesting. Seems liek the total radio now. Power little gadget.
