    THE FCC CHIEF APPROVED THE SIRI/XM MERGER OMG OMG I AM FUCKING RICH ( 50k is rich to me lol!)!!! AHHAHAHAHAHAH DRINKS ON ME GUYS SORRY I AM SO FUCKING EXCITED RIGHT NOW!!! ONE TIME!!!

    http://uk.reuters.com/article/rbssTe...43636820080616

    for those that have siri or xm here is a new thing you will be able to get.

    http://biz.yahoo.com/paidcontent/080...2_id.html?.v=1

    so sick for you guys

    edit: also for you xm and siri users, you get to have both with baseball basketball etc at a cheaper price so wooot

    Also people want detail so here it is.

    for almost 2 years siri and xm have been talking about merging. First it had to get the doj ( departement of justice) to approve it and the FCC. The DOJ finally approved it In febuary I believe it was and it jumped a little. People started to speculate this was not gonna happen when kerry and many others were against it. It dropped to 2.44 the 52 week low and that is when I loaded up. The reasons were that the DOJ and FCC have never gone against each other in our history. Also siri was doing quite well at the time and later Id find out they had a great quarter. Also big names like cramer and others thought this was a 65/35 which is good enough to me for a huge money gamble. The reasons this was stupid were that both xm and siri have big debts. With this merger they will cut the debt and lead to a better service. It will depend on how the merger is like wheter there are restirctions or other things that I will make the most money. That is the simple explanation. So basically those who have either will now be able to select channels from both and get what you want. meaning howard oprah, nascar,baseball,hoops,football etc etc etc. Watch how much volmue and movement there will be in 5 hrs. those in the market watch and buy

    btw just so if it happens this is about 99% guranteed with cheif backing. if that 1 % comes about and it does not happen I want ron, underdog,norcal,mathclub and waco to rip my limbs off and kill me

    I am sorry guys, when I say wealthy//rich I mean for my age..... Obv most you make more, but I should make 50-55k if it goes as planned with this merger. This is the most money Ive ever made in anything or will have so I am just telling all my firends who got in on it with me and wow Im like about to cry.

    Uh how does this compute? This will maybe send the stock up by 1/3, which would mean unless you just margined your ass in recently on a gamble with your life savings that you already have a sizable net worth.

    Thanks man!!! This is huge to me and I plan out taking alot of it out, but keeping the rest kind of like buildng my stock market roll. I kind of have the Trump out look on life. go big and rich or be a broke bum lol.

    Ive been up all night and am waiting for it to open to see how it goes. I can't sleep or I will sleep past 6:30 and may miss some key moments.

    I bet you go with Trump's outlook on appearance too... which ironically, minus the <strike>tacky</strike> expensive suits, resembles that of the broke bum he could've alternatively been.

    so you put a lot of your SNG earnings in a small cap company.

    thats not good investing, but way to get lucky

    I think it's a pretty okay move considering how fucking big Sirius and XM were at the jump, and the idea of them merging breeds a lot more creativity upstairs. One can hope.

    Also you can't thank me for a compliment and a diss in one post.

    so you did this move based on pure speculation. again, not good investing and you wont make money in the long run like this.

    nah, you can have $1 in Etrade accounts. you need 25k+ if you want to day trade. you can buy/sell stocks the same day up to 3 times a day with <25k. if you want to do more than 3x day then you need >25k.
