Would have made it all back and then some but now I'm skittish and I sold the $125's I picked up today for 82 cents for 96 cents instead of holding for about $1.20 so I missed out on about $7k with that move and only picked up about $4k.

    Figures I pick the 1 stock that "beats" yet craters after earnings and doesn't recover. Everything else flying high!


    Re: Siri still think charge is taken Q3. It's doing what it should if it is going to set up a C+H break. Needs news to break $4... and good if we go into the call near $4.
    7/31 op-ex date on those 125's? I'm tempted to ride your coat tails on a trade like that....I don't think i have the balls for 300 contracts though....maybe 10. - and perhaps the 128's....if the tech stocks rally on AMZN's beat those 128's may be at, or close to, the money in the morning....so we'll see.

    Traders.......... Invest in Free Cash Flow per share, EBITDA and EPS growth and hold your stocks for at least 5 years people. Casinos are for gamblers. When you buy stocks you are buying a company's future earnings. This is not the lottery. Investing is not gambling. It's the exact opposite of gambling. Read Peter Lynch's books. I read em 25 years ago. Making a million bucks takes time effort research and patience. It's math not rocket science, and it certainly is not gambling.

    The market has miscalculated Sirius simply because of perceived internet competition. All of us here know better. Music streaming today is the downloads of the 2000's, the CDs of the 90s, the tape decks of the 80s, and the 8 tracks of the 70s. DID ANY OF THESE HURT RADIO IN THE CAR???? ANY OF THEM???? Not at all. They complemented radio. The market has miscalculated. Miscalculation presents opportunity. Sirius is going to have a great couple of years ahead.

    Streaming Streaming Streaming. Internet Internet Internet. Sirius RADIO converts higher in connected cars than non internet connected cars. Imagine that.............OPPORTUNITY........

    Yep 25 years ago. And I went from nothing to over a million in media stocks in those years. Peter Lynch's books are fantastic reads. Investing is the opposite of gambling. I told you about EBITDA years ago Brandon. Please learn FCF per share too whatever name you're using on these boards. Doesn't matter. FCF is what matters for Sirius investing. Good luck dude.

    so you made a million bucks in 25 years....congrats....i would say todays traders with the right bank roll could make that in a third of that time. Like i said one size does not fit all. Looking back at your posts...you were not sold on siri it seems just a few short years ago....now its one of your dream stocks. Nice you have finally seen what we all here have seen for the last six or seven years. Better late than never

    Not concerned with traders. They are gamblers. Plenty of people make and lose millions in casinos. That's not investing. After Mel left I was very down on Sirius. It had reached 20 times EV/EBITDA and lost a superlative CEO that brought it back from 5 cents to 3 bucks. Meyer was unproven. Apple was threatening. Who the hell on Wall Street wasn't scared? And so Sirius underperformed the S&P 500 for 2 years.

    Meyer picked up Mel's FCF per share mantra. The buybacks picked up. Apple bought Beats and released a music service twice. Meyer has proven to keep subs growing at an enormous clip. Internet Streaming music is turning into a commodity. And on FCF per share Sirius should be $5 right now.

    Storm has passed. The market is WRONG on Sirius. Opportunity ahead. Remember EBITDA Brandon. You laughed. You wrote EBITDA songs. I was right. And I will be right again on FCF per share. The next couple of years will prove it. Learn FCF per share.

    Not concerned with traders then why even mention them at all like you did in your post? Not sure your brandon comment was to me insinuating i am brandon or if you somehow threw that out as a dig to brandon hoping he actually see's it. I assure you i am not Brandon. Like i said...we all saw what you did not in siri long before you changed your tune. Welcome aboard!

    Weren't you suggesting that comcast was gonna kill earnings a few weeks back? yet they dropped.

    Comcast's numbers were fantastic Brandon Hedy or whatever your name is today. It was classic buy on the rumor sell on the news. It's happened to Sirius a million times over the years too. The analysts are raising numbers and targets on Comcast today on earnings reports. That is what you guys just can't get through your head. Day to Day movements on stocks mean nothing to investors. This is not gambling. It is investing. Hold your stocks for 5 years minimum! Take care whatever your name is and learn FCF per share! Remember EBITDA.............Remember your song. Learn
