| DON'T BUY | 2.400 | Alan Kral | Looking to merge with XM Satellite (XMSR-Q) but there are problems on what they have said to the FCC. Also concerns if a lot of Americans will continue to drive cars. New subscribers to satellite radio have been weaker than expected. | 2008-06-12 | |
| DON'T BUY | 2.870 | Alex Ruus | Have serious reservations on the satellite radio business. If the merger with XM Satellite (XMSR-Q) goes through, it could become interesting. | 2007-05-07 | |
| VAGUE | 3.970 | Bill Carrigan | Volitility as shrunk. It might rally. Most of the weak holders have gone, need to see some buyers. Could trade sideways for a long time. | 2006-10-02 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.030 | David Burrows | Most auto manufacturers are including satellite radios in cars. This is a futures business and he does not like investing in companies that are in last place in the early stages. A lot of risk because they are losing a lot of money. | 2006-09-13 | |
| DON'T BUY | 4.880 | Bill Carrigan | Feels this is risky and would stay away. There was an uptrend from 2003 to 2005. That has been violated in 2006. | 2006-05-02 | |
| BUY | 5.980 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | Very interesting stock. The risk point would be below the low hat was just made. In terms of upside, you have to look at retracement from the previous rally. Somewhere in the bad of mind of mid-$60's to low $70's resistance should develop. | 2006-02-08 | |
| TOP PICK | 6.980 | Richard Croft | This is one of these trading range kind of stocks. Sure there will be some decent promotional news (no idea what) coming out. It's a growing industry. A momentum play. When it takes off, it'll probably go back to the $10 area and he would sell it again. Very speculaftive. | 2005-07-12 | |
| WATCH | 6.580 | Peter Hofstra | A business model that will do very well, but it's pretty early stages. Have looked at it in terms of financial model and feel they will get to free cash flow. Have raised a tremendous amount of money, but not generating returns on that money. Wait to see when free cash flow against the market cap is over 5%. | 2005-06-29 | |
| BUY | 4.670 | Bill Carrigan | Technically it looks pretty strong. Had a long base from '02 to '04. Moved up in November and pulled back until now. Stars seem to be lined up for this stock. | 2005-04-27 | |
| DON'T BUY | 5.380 | David Baskin | An interesting stock and opinions are all over the map. In competition with XM Satellite (XMSR-Q). Both have satelittes operating and are each other to attract individual users/ car makers (installations on new cars). Subscriber base is not being built as fast as many had hoped. Sirius will be cash flow negative for at least 1/2 years and has a lot of shares outstanding. Speculative. | 2005-03-29 | |
| PAST TOP PICK | 6.040 | Richard Croft | (A Top Pick Dec 14/04. Down 23%.) This is a longer term hold. A growth story that, like anything in China/India can be volatile. Still likes. | 2005-02-16 | |
| DON'T BUY | 6.270 | David Burrows | Has no doubt that satellite radio will be a big business, but at this point there are no earnings or revenues. If we are in a market correction as he thinks, companies that are weak in fundamentals will suffer. | 2005-01-12 | |
| TOP PICK | 7.480 | Richard Croft | Ahead of itself, so don't rush to buy right now, but even so, expects a 30% return from this point. Next year could be a pretty decent year for this. Believes their subscriber base is going to ramp up next year. | 2004-12-30 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.650 | Larry Berman CFA, CMT, CTA | Technicals have turned quite dramatically. In the short term, the stock got extremely overbought. Whenever you get a parabolic move, typically on the other side is a parabolic correction which is something to worry about. If it gets back to around the $6.50 area, that would be a negative sign. | 2004-12-15 | |
| TOP PICK | 7.950 | Richard Croft | This company looks like AOL looked 12 years ago. Getting a real uptick in subscriber base. They will also derive revenue from advertising. The spike in December was when they signed Howard Stern. | 2004-12-14 | |
| DON'T BUY | 7.590 | David Burrows | This and XM Radio are very exciting growth plays in the US market, but there are no earnings. It's all blue sky. There's no doubt that these radios will be installed into cars. Have gone up, but would prefer them to have some earnings. Fairly speculative. | 2004-12-10 | |
| TOP PICK | 3.700 | Harvey Eisen | One of the really incredible break throughs in consumer products. | 2004-10-15 | |
| BUY | 3.010 | John Zechner | Hard to justify the stock on a valuation basis. No earnings and no cash generation, however it is a fantastic business to be in. Should have a huge future. Will the volatile. | 2004-06-23 | |
| WAIT | 1.840 | Howard Sutton | Wants to see continued take-up and subscriptions and how the market takes to it. | 2003-07-04 | |
