FCC Commissioner Copps Votes "No" to Radio Merger: No Surprise

Two questions (sorry if they're stupid!):

1) So now that there are three votes does the 10 day clock start or not? No one seems to be able to agree.

2) Shouldn't the FCC have been fining SIRI and XM over the last decade for these violations?

Still Too Early to Buy Sirius - Merrill

I had to chime in with a LMAO after Merrill posted those great earnings today and slashed 3,000 jobs...people are supposed to listen to them because...they obviously don't know what they are doing? Do you think Glen Campbell issued a "sell" on Merrill's shares as well (that's sarcasm folks). Do you think he is one of those 3,000 (that's an actual sirious question).

Disclosure- We are helpless at the hands of hedge funds and the genius of people running places like Merrill Lynch.

WSJ Confirms Positive Stifel Assessment on Radio Merger

I agree with the above, Tyler has done great covering this. His writing has become better (and more even-handed I suppose) as this saga has unfolded. But what will he do with all of his free time when this finally ends? :)

XM/Sirius Merger Still a Long Shot

I would like to point out that the Super Bowl comes with interruptions built into the game. It's called "TV advertising." And you know what I can listen to through my Ipod that you can't on satellite radio? A little thing called podcasts. I hear that they might be popular someday. I personally could care less if the merger passes or not, but I have found it humorous that google can buy double click and gigantic oil industries combine and no one blink an eye!

Antitrust Institute Petition to Block Radio Merger Lacks Substance

I am so tired of seeing your articles on Seeking Alpha! Everytime you post a new one it means...the merger is still not done. Ha!
If this does go through I'll be going back to satellite radio. If not, I'll just stick to my cd's. Wait a minute, that sounds like an alternative to me!

Will eBay's Meg Whitman Take Leave of Absence in '08?

How about Meg Whitman should leave because she has run a cash cow into the ground? One of the worst CEO's of all time! (Note: I sold my Ebay stock long ago for heavy gains before the Skype fiasco, but for some odd reason I still find myself pulling for the stock :) )

LDK Solar Dives on Margin Worries Despite Earnings Beat

Hmmm...so who do we believe? It always amazes me how analysts can have such differing opinions based on the same facts. Will it go to $95 or $35?

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.
