Karmazin Video Provides Some Sirius Answers

I've still got my 40,000 shares of SIRI and I plan on holding on to them for either the ride down to the basement or the ride up to womens lingerie. In the meantime, I'm looking for opportunities in companies that manufacture those big pots they use in soup lines and sticks with big red bandanas the hobos used to carry around. Both will be big sellers if Obama gets elected. If you had told me 2 years ago that SIRI stock would be worth less than a gumball and that an avowed socialist would be elected president of the USA, I'd have had you committed to a nuthouse. But what do I know...as an owner of SIRI stock and a guy who actually thought Mel knew what he was doing, I don't have much credibility.

Understanding Sector Rotation

I subscribe to the Buffett mantra....don't buy any stock you aren't willing to hold for 10 years. I'm as upset as anyone about the price drops...but I'm not losing any sleep over it. In 10 years time I really believe I'll wish I'd had more money to buy SIRI at these prices. The market is reliable. It cycles up. It cycles down. Always. Unless you're a day trader, these prices right now are a golden opportunity for future wealth.

Am I wrong?

Sirius XM at Work - Largest Pool of Potential Subscribers

I bought 1,000 shares last week at around 72 cents and another 2,000 today at 68 cents.

Money talks, bullcrap walks. Opportunity usually knocks. This time it's hitting the door with a sledgehammer.

This company is either going to go bankrupt, or soar eventually. I've got 38,000 shares now. I believe in free enterprise. I believe in democracy. I believe in technology. I believe in SIRI.

You assholes that jump up and down with glee every time SIRI drops lower so you can ridicule and berate people you think you're smarter than are in for some bad times. If you delight in the pain of others, you are not just a dirty, rotten, pile of dog crap...no.... you're a dirty, rotten, pile of dog crap that is about to run face first into a very bad karmatic experience.

More Evidence of Sirius Stock Manipulation

If Obama gets elected, I'll dump every stock I have and buy as much gold as possible, because his tax plan will drive us into a economic situation as bad or worse than the crash of 1929.

More Evidence of Sirius Stock Manipulation

Cramer claims that all of the market problems look like a form of economic terrorism. And he's right....but what he didn't say is that he is one of the leaders and shall henceforth be known to me as Osama bin Cramer...chief henchman for the eco-terror group "AL-Goldman-Saqee...

Cramer Continues to Dig a Sirius Hole for Himself

If you think his "free" stock picks on the TV show are bad at 2008 YTD Return - 3.18%, be glad you didn't pay him the $399 to subscribe to Action Alerts PLUS! like I did. His performance with that portfolio is 2008 YTD Return -14.7%. I canceled after his stunt with SIRI and when they asked why I told them I was taking his advice and using the $399 to buy lottery tickets.

Cramer Continues to Dig a Sirius Hole for Himself

Whoever made death threats against Cramer is an idiot. I think Cramer gives a lot of bad advice and some good advice, but ultimately you make your own investment decisions. Blaming Cramer for buying a bad stock is like blaming a movie reviewer after going to see a bad movie. I understand being mad at him over the stunt he's pulling with SIRI, but death threats are ridiculous and totally irresponsible.

When Cramer says BUY BUY BUY, it's time to SELL SELL SELL. Jim Cramer is a fraud.

Lehman, JP Morgan Weigh in on Newly-Formed Sirius XM Radio

Lehman Brothers took up a NEW position on SIRI last week, to the tune of over 6 million shares. What's VOV have to say about that? Are Lehman Brothers and Goldman Sachs even bigger rubes than we are?

Citi: Sirius XM Is “Massively Undervalued”

I find it real interesting that Goldman Sachs Group bought 814,000 shares of SIRI last week, bringing their total owned to over 4.2 million shares. Think Weinke might have had a motive behind his lowering of SIRI to a buck? They were able to buy at bargain basement prices. It ought to be illegal what these powerhouse firms do to manipulate stock prices.

Sirius XM Radio Analyst Roundup

The best thing about Mel's interview today was the shot he took at GS. He all but came right out and said Weinke was manipulating the stock price in cahoots with his hedge fund pals in clear violation of SEC rules. It's about time he puts guys like that on the defense. I hope he's filed formal complaints.

Sirius XM Radio's Q2 Call Keeps Investors Guessing

Not many are going to take the full program. I've got 150 cable TV channels...I watch maybe 6 of them. Same with SIRI. The "best of" is all anyone needs.

Satellite Radio: Betting on Used Cars

Cramer is a coward. He'll kiss Mel's ass while he's on the 1:30 show and trash him on the evening show. I've lost what little respect I had for Jim Cramer. He's a showman...a clown...owned by GS. Nothing more.

Wall Street Breakfast - Sample Wall Street Breakfast: Must-Know News by SA Editor Rachael Granby Bank trio becomes duo. Wells Fargo (WFC) will become the largest U.S. bank by branches with its bid for Wachovia (WB), after Citigroup (C) withdrew from compromise negotiations late yesterday on concerns about the quality of some of Wachovia's assets. Wells Fargo, with a bid valued at $11.4B, expects the purchase to be completed by the end of the year, and denies it will have to absorb assets shakier than originally thought. Government considers next steps. As the financial crisis continues to worsen, the U.S. government is considering two dramatic steps to turn around, or at least slow, the damage: guaranteeing billions of dollars in bank debt and temporarily insuring all U.S. bank deposits. The moves, which would mark the government's most extensive intervention to date, are in discussion stages only. Credit stays frozen. As frozen credit markets refuse to thaw, the cost of default protection on corporate bonds reaches new global records amid investor concerns the credit crisis will trigger corporate failures as companies struggle to finance their businesses. Interbank lending remains limited, and borrowing from the Fed's expanded discount window continued its trend of setting new highs every week, as the total daily average rose to $420.2B vs. $367.8B last week.

Better Choices - Cramer's Lightning Round (10/15/08)

by SA Editor Rachael Granby

Stocks discussed in the lightning round session of Jim Cramers Mad Money TV program,
Wednesday, October 15.

Bullish Calls:

Continental Resources (CLR) -- "This is a remarkable decline. All of the high quality ones are down so much, I can't go against it. This is where you pull the trigger.
3M (MMM) -- The moment this stock starts yielding 5%, I'm a buyer. Until then, keep your powder dry.

Bearish Calls:

Computer Sciences (CSC) -- This is a company that was going to be bought, but they passed up the chance. Now I don't want to buy it."
Annaly Mortgage (NLY) -- I think this is a business model that needs to borrow money. Definitively do not buy."
Northrop Grumman (NOC) -- You can't own the defense stocks right now. If I had to own one, I'd look at Lockheed Martin (LMT) with its good dividend.
