This guy does NOT know as evidenced by the lack of DD.
"MCVED up 48% today"
With a P/E of 8.1?!
That would be my best guess. He was getting a little flak and being hard pressed from a few posters right before the break. Sometimes that does not sit well with the more well mannered. Ihub isn't too bad as a result of the mods, but some message boards are mediums for gutter fights.
My sincerest hope is that he was told to back off as a result of upcoming developments and announcements - may we hear something positive soon.
"Maybe the guy just took a break from us. This board can be excruciating at times".
And a civility uncommon on anonymous message boards.
"Indy brought logic and stability to the board. He is missed".
Very sorry to hear that.
You never know Mithrandir. The guys with the big money have made this run big in the past, you just never know when.
"yes, but it is...for quite a longe time now and it doesn't look like it will go back into the 3,80 range or even 3,50 range soon!"
$4.50 to $5 by 2015. Unless Putin keeps acting like a horses patooty.
Reminds me of cold fusion. The applications of a power source like that are mind boggling. Including keeping a strat aloft.
"BlackLight has developed a system engineering design of an electric generator that is less that a cubic foot in volume to generate ten million watts of electricity, enough to power ten thousand homes [10 MW Generator/patent app]."
Great range to be buying in!!! Those that do will be very happy in a few months.
Some feedback if you do would be appreciated.
Time Warner just told Charter, "not interested", per CNBC.
The timing of Barclay's is suspect. In Malones pocket?

I should add, late opening for trading is not unusual.
Lighter Than Air Systems Receives Order for Blimp in a Box Aerostat System
Blimp in a Box 100 Aerostat System Delivery and Onsite Training to Commence in First Quarter 2014
KENNEDY SPACE CENTER, FL -- (Marketwired) -- 01/09/14 -- Lighter Than Air Systems Corp. ("LTAS"), a wholly owned subsidiary of World Surveillance Group Inc. (OTCQB: WSGI), a developer of lighter-than-air aerostats and unmanned aerial systems, has received an order for a Blimp in a Box™ ("BiB") 100 aerostat system for use by a State Department of Transportation. The BiB 100 aerostat system is scheduled to be delivered to the customer during the first quarter of 2014, after which onsite training and test operations will commence.
Unlike a drone or other unmanned aerial vehicle, the highly mobile BiB 100 aerostat system utilizes a high strength, power tether line to remain connected to an integrated trailer where secure communications are transmitted. The system is designed to provide incident awareness and assessment ("IAA") and can be used to monitor illegal activity, identify and monitor traffic patterns, or provide disaster response in a secure manner without the risk of being intercepted or jammed.
The BiB aerostat system is designed to be used in various applications required by state and local government municipalities including first responders, police and fire departments. The BiB 100 is a smaller version of larger LTAS BiB aerostat systems including the BiB 250, which is currently being used by the Department of Defense ("DoD") for evaluation and training. Additionally, a variant of the BiB 250, or as it is also called while being utilized by the U.S. Army Space and Missile Defense Command /Army Forces Strategic Command, the Winch Aerostat Small Platform ("WASP"), also recently participated in the Network Integration Evaluation (NIE) 14.1 as a 'System Under Evaluation.'
For further information on the WASP's participation in the recent Army NIE exercise, please visit: http://www.army.mil/article/115882/SMDC_helps_WASP_fly/.
WSGI President and CEO, Glenn D. Estrella, stated, "This order demonstrates the need for our products in targeted new markets. We have been successfully working to expand the markets for our products beyond military applications and are focused on both the commercial and state and local government marketplaces. We are excited to continue to execute our strategy in 2014 by both opening new markets for our products and by continuing to work closely with our federal government defense customers, especially following the recent passage of the 2014 National Defense Authorization Act."

The TDA news alerts now have 8 law firms interested in pursuing the bogus offer.
Yes, they will call for a class action and shareholders to join.
Call them ambulance chasers and it makes more sense.
The 5th investigation or lawsuit by Law firms?
Time Warner Cable CFO: Business "not for sale"
CFO Arthur Minson Jr. says he "feels really good" about the business, adding that the business isn't for sale. Comments made at the Citi Internet Media & Telecommunications Conference.
Anybody else getting reports on this?!
Yes, waiting for the next shoe to drop.
We shall see Sarumans, er..... Malones actual influence on the board. It is the institutional holders and larger retail investors that really hold the cards here and will decide the outcome. The offer really should be around $5 or more, I just hope they realize the power they have and can band together like the good crew of Middle Earth.
Loved Tolkien's work, and thought they did a darn good job with the big screen too.
Being a pyro, I took the more subtle name myself on a pyro board. Many don't register the fact he was a master pyrotechnic artist.
Well Gandalf, concerning the decisions of CEO's, board members and corporate developments, quoting you from another matter: "You can learn all there is to know about their ways in a month, and yet after a hundred years they can still surprise you."
One thing for sure. The final offer will not be the original.
estimated ADDITIONS of 1.25 million subs in 2014.
2013 end 25.56.m subs
adjusted ebitda growth to exceed 20% 1.38 billion
FCF approaching 1.1 billion in 2014
sub additions of 1.25 in 2014
1.66 million sub additions in 2013
Really Malone?!! $3.58?!
It's not everyday with SIRI that you can see a couple of million shares on both the bid and ask.
Anybody care to guess what big institutional owners are thinking?
Liberty Media is down $3.38.
level II is freaking out right now.
NSDQ all over the place
and how much higher would $4.25 or $5 be?
Here is to hoping the special committee the SIRI board will appoint can get a better premium.
$3.68 is way too low!
series c is non voting.
not liking this at all.
Might want to check with the government. I may be wrong but I understood that the government would only issue two licenses for satellite radio - Sirius and XM. Their stated reason was that the business model would only support 2, a 3rd would go bankrupt. Now we have 1, a monopoly and the government approved it. Not sure if they would allow a 2nd again.
TDA news says F may be added to S&P tonight.
momentum may be coming back. Goldman Sachs reiterates $61 mentioning instagram.
Was planning to sell FB and get in on the Twitter IPO. Not happening after they raised the offering price, (same thing FB did). All things considered, FB is a comfortable holding for me going into 2014.
CNBC did the same thing with SIRI. Slammed it at every opportunity.

FB did not get the S&P to replace Dell. Transworld was selected instead. Could be the reason.
