I expect Liberty deal will happen within a weel to ten days. They will resolve Mel's contract. Clear up the control issue with both sides being happy. And start a share buybach program.
Ezalldee,
Any idea what lmca would do with it's 40% preferred shares if a merger were to occur? We would be given a formula to determine the # shares we had of lmca.
I hope this is the way it goes.
Years ago I had shares in a biotec company (tlrk) that merged with AMGN. What a nice thing!
Yes Liberty can merge SIRI into LMCA. Then if LMCA feels that it is not getting the proper value it can spin it out as a stand alone company. The float will be far smaller with the stock price far higher.
deal is done guys! Sirius filing that Liberty intends to purchase over 50% just holds them to the intent officially with the FCC---Monday interestin for sure
Any spin-out will not be a cheap stock. Thats not Liberty's history. Goin to be a wild couple of months!!!!
Was just about to say the same thing. Malone will insist on
a share buy back as soon as his belly is full. Anytime now.
Shorts are Da-Dumb! Da..I'm a Short...ok.
I thought with an RMT the company bring spun off would get 1 share of the new company for each share of the old comany?
Monday is goin to be fun!!!!
Ezalldee...
Is this huge news?
It looks like it's GREAT for us investors.
Just wondering what the "it will own more than 50% of the total outstanding shares of Sirius" means
Does that mean the outstanding shares are going to be reduced by more then half?
And then SIRI will really SKYROCKET! That's why I bought more this morning.
Looks like I got it right. Expect news of the deal soon.
Someone sold 420,000 X $118.8868 403pm AH yesterday of TIP. 50 million dollars. Screw the entertainment moguls who want our failure. Short squeeze.
8/17 TIP $118.87x410K=
49 million bucks AH
My gut is telling me the Direct TV/Liberty deal is what you will see here happen with Sirius--Shareholders did very well over the past years with this so heres hoping.....
I was expecting a little more profit taking this morning, but it seems as though a majority of the stock holders are expecting a lot more......and they may be right.
Todays action should scare the living daylights out of shorty.
Watch for the afternoon push, and the expectations of next week!!!
Is your "k" key broke???
Lol I think so. Either that or my brain
