I hear all of ya, it's tough watching your stock dip. If you are long I wouldn't worry about having an avg at $1.60 or so, my exact avg is $2.0511 and I'm not worried. Fundamentals here haven't changed, some market force for whatever reason is messing with the stock price. Big holders have been increasing their position so the fact that the stock continues to drop shows manipulation. Had there been some change in fundamentals or big holders selling off hard then I could understand but that isn't the case.
CLWR
Well they need to stay cash heavy because they are spending a great deal rolling out the rest of the network. Keep in mind they are competing directly with Verizon and AT&T which have more than $10B to allocate to expansion. Also, they have debt they need to ensure is paid when due. For a trader yes it's a problem when the float increases but for a value investor it doesn't matter because basically it's assets-liabilities so if you pay off debt you haven't changed your valuation but improved your outlook. What hurt them the most in the past and how they acquired so much debt was initially rolling out Wi-Max and then not being able to yield a profit because LTE became the favorable future.
CLWR
and the population is now over 7B people, hehe.

I was shorting a stock super hard like 3 months ago after it had gaped up super hard and it just kept pushing up and holding, never went back down. Right now people want the market to recover and the play is raping shorters. Every short position I took in the past 3-4 months I got raped on, wasn't able to hold long enough and was terrified of doing so and so I lost on those trades. Unfortunately, when I took a long position here the market melted. FED is about to yield to Wall Street on the Q3 and then these slime balls will push the indexes back up.
CLWR
Keep the lights running? They are sitting on over $1b cash lol. The drop is really annoying but I don't see this trading up, this will simply gap up super hard one day and keep pushing up from there. There is no justification for the way the PPS has melted down other than someone is manipulating it down for an important reason.
CLWR
They were looking to sell $300m worth not 300m shares, and they began selling a while back so I would assume they will sell about 200m shares to raise that much.
CLWR
Insane ask blast and not moving, so they are selling at an arranged price and showing it on L2 but it's not part of the regular orders sitting on the ask. Another 300k, 1,000k and a bunch of small 100k-200k orders.
CLWR
500k & 127.5k block just went through.
CLWR
L2 looking like the wild, wild west!
CLWR
So far down 42.47%, this is by far the lowest I have ever been down on a major exchange stock, lol.
CLWR
I hope this offering is coming to an end soon, we need this bad boy to turn around. Annoying watching a sea of red for a month.
CLWR
Must be nice to be a market making institution. Another 500k buy on the ask.
CLWR
I'm not selling under $3 per share but would prefer to sell around the $4 range. While the stock is down analyst will lower their estimates while their buddies or firms short. Once Iphone5 is out, additional LTE network is closer to being finished and another few quarters are under CLWR's belt than analyst will increase their $4-$5 target price higher and I'm predicting by year end the targets will be $6 to $7.
CLWR
Interesting how the bid/ask sizes are huge. Tired of them boxing it in and dropping it every day, shorts are making a killing. I'm ready to make my killing as a long.
CLWR
You know they are holding it down when you get a block x5 the size of the ask and the ask size doesn't even move. They are letting big players in at attractive prices while they hold down the PPS. Once these guys buy all their shares, this should run hard.
CLWR
1m buy block.
CLWR
Breaking News on Bloomberg, LightSqare fails talks and files for bankruptcy. That should be bullish for CLWR. Most likely not in the short-term but surely long-term.
Haha, well played :)
Go CLWR
This is a cat and mouse game, notice the upward earnings revisions. You think if big players thought this would under-perform they would be increases estimates? People confused MM's naked shorting down the PPS on a daily basis for big institutions selling. I repeat, Google was the only institution with a significant amount of shares to sell in a long time and that's because they had taken a position at a much higher PPS years ago. They wanted to sell in the open market at $1.61 avg but Credit Suisse which are a big institutional player wanted all the shares and paid a premium price of $2.26 for them. You think Credit Suisse bought shares at $2.26 to sell them at a loss? Come on now.
Also, I have had a colleague pull of the Bloomberg Report and it has the following valuation for the stock.
Ticker Rating Agency Rating Target Price
CLWR Credit Suisse Outperform $4.75
Guggenheim Buy $3.00
Jefferies Hold $2.00
RBC Capital Hold $2.00
Macguire Hold $2.50
Btig LLC Hold $10.00

This stock is going to catch everyone with their pants down when it gaps up 100%+ one of these days.

WiMAX provider Clearwire (NASDAQ:CLWR), which plans to deploy an LTE Advanced-ready network by June 2013, will be able to deliver theoretical peak speeds of up to 168 Mbps by 2014, according to CTO John Saw.
Saw
Saw told GigaOM that Clearwire plans to use carrier aggregation technology in its forthcoming TD-LTE network to meld together it spectrum holdings into 40 MHz-wide channels. Such a configuration would give Clearwire spectrum channels that would be twice as wide (2 X 10 MHz--i.e. 20 MHz) as the FDD LTE channels being deployed by Verizon Wireless (NYSE:VZ) and AT&T Mobility (NYSE:T). (However, Verizon and AT&T's 700 MHz spectrum has much better propagation characteristics than Clearwire' 2.5 GHz spectrum).

Saw that the carrier aggregation technology will not be in commercial products until 2014. "We're going to start with 20 MHz carriers," he said. "When carrier aggregation comes along we will go to 40 MHz, which will essentially leave the competition in the dust."
It should be noted that AT&T has openly talked about using carrier aggregation as well. AT&T has said it will deploy LTE Advanced technology in 2013 and plans to eventually use carrier aggregation technology to glue together the 700 MHz spectrum it spent $1.93 billion acquiring from Qualcomm (NASDAQ:QCOM) with its existing AWS, 1900 MHz or 850 MHz spectrum holdings. AT&T has said it will cost an additional $1 billion to $2 billion to integrate Qualcomm's spectrum with its own.
For carriers, carrier aggregation technology holds potentially large benefits. By bonding non-contiguous spectrum into a single, wider channel, carriers can address the asymmetry of data flows between downlink and uplink channels. The data traffic that is growing the fastest is video, and it is asymmetrical traffic. As such, carrier aggregation helps operators efficiently manage these downlink flows.

I said in the past 6 months, also keep in mind that most analyst have a hold on the stock, only the technicals are showing strong sell and those are what traders not investors follow.
CLWR
You do know that the entire market has been on a free fall for 1 month already no? If telecomm index drops so will CLWR, since it's part of different funds. How about we stick with the hard facts? There have been a ton of SEC filings showing institutions purchasing a large amount of shares from CLWR and none aside from Google has sold.
CLWR
Hehe, I'm down 41% but not worried since I'm long this.
CLWR
Testing the 52wk low...
CLWR
You seriously need to take a course in finance/market fundamentals bro. No insider or institutional holder has sold int he past 6 months aside from Google. If you review SEC filings you would know that in the past 6 months institutions have been loading the crap out of this stock. You are confusing share offering, MM's holding the stock down and retail selling to actual big players positions here. Please get a clue.
CLWR
Read more careful the short positions are for Sprint but the relationship of how both stocks are being shorted heavily is the main idea. Last bi-weekly report had 44m+ shorts, avg covering day of 1.85 or basically 2 trading sessions. They are using the madoff exemption to naked short the stock and hold it down while institutions buy at the negotiated price and once all $300M funding is raised the stock will move. The problem is that people freak out and sell out when they hold stocks down for so long. Perfect example, I shorted BAC with an avg short of $9.36 and held it for nearly a month until I freaked out and covered my position only to have the stock dip almost $2 full dollars. I shorted it after it had run for a while yet they kept it at the top squeezing out the shorts. The big 800lb gorilla are the ones controlling the market. You can make money if you understand how the market works but need some patience and really understand how to valuate a company if you will hold longer than a simple trade.
CLWR
They are only holding the price down while institutions load up cheap shares from the offering, SEC filings are already coming on out on it. As soon as they finish loading this will start to climb near the $4 mark. Basically, once this begins to climb it will do so for a very long time.
CLWR
According to the Bloomberg report, avg target price is $4.04. The report pulled is from May 11th, 2012, so latest as of today. If this stock is trading this low and way oversold is because someone is manipulating the price in the short-term for some reason. Once they remove their boot off the stock it should take off nicely.
CLWR
Yeah except the situation now isn't the same as in 2010, multiple major milestones have been achieved since then. Stocks can trade undervalued for a while before they start to reflect the changed fundamentals.
TSNP
Sure seems like it, I'm telling ya when this confirms an uptrend it's going to beast out!
CLWR
Super bullish.
CLWR
We will be fine just be patient, this is a multi-billion dollar company, making $300m+ revenue quarterly. They have a comparative advantage on the spectrum front, although not the comparative advantage AT&T or Verizon possess in assets and working capital but CLWR could grow to be as strong in market-cap and revenue stream as Sprint. Hard to see far ahead enough to pit CLWR vs ATT or VZ since they are between $100m-$200m market cap but they will surely play an important roll in the coming years. If the price drop is making you sick try not to stare at the screen so long, go out take a walk and get some fresh air. :)
CLWR
You can get the right information on the research under your trading platform but the best reliable way it to review the filings.
CLWR
Yahoo doesn't have the right information.
CLWR
Oops I meant to say OS. The OS is 1.33B or was.
CLWR
You are missing many factors in how a company is valuated, do not become disconcerted with short-term market fluctuations. Keep the faith.
CLWR
How is 300m shares 61% of a 1.33B float? lol.
CLWR
GREEN!!!
