Advisors' Opinion:
  • [! By Rick Munarriz]

    Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI  ) is shaking up its board for the second time this year.

    Liberty Media (NASDAQ: LMCA  ) is making sure that everyone knows that it's the one calling the shots, as Liberty Media CEO Greg Maffei will replace Los Angeles Times CEO Eddy Hartenstein as chairman of the satellite radio provider. Hartenstein will remain on the board as its lead independent director.

    5. Satellite radio hitchhikes on the information superhighway
    Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI  ) officially rolled out its MySXM offering this week.

  • [By Rick Munarriz]

    I went out on a limb last week, and now it's time to see how that decision played out.

    I predicted that Sirius XM Radio (NASDAQ: SIRI  ) would close higher on the week. The satellite-radio provider was reporting quarterly results on Tuesday, and all of the trends appeared favorable heading into the earnings call. Sirius XM didn't post amazing results, but it did raise its free cash flow guidance. It also revealed that it's been aggressively buying back shares. The company went on to hit a five-year high shortly after the report. I was right. I predicted that the tech-heavy Nasdaq would outperform the Dow Jones Industrial Average. (DJINDICES: ^DJI  ) . This has been a tricky call lately, so how did it play out this time? Well, the market had a strong run this week, fueled by encouraging economic news. Secondary stocks led the way, with the Nasdaq soaring 3% on the week. The Dow managed to close just 1.8% higher. I was right. My final call was for Sturm, Ruger (NYSE: RGR  ) to beat Wall Street's quarterly profit target. The firearms maker has been posting blowout quarterly results as consumers snapped up weaponry ahead of any potential gun-control legislation. Analysts were looking for a profit of $1.01 a share during the quarter, and it came through with net income of $1.20 a s! hare. I w! as right.

    Three for three? Awesome! That's six for six over the past two weeks! I'm at an encouraging 10 of 12 over the past four weeks.

    Industry juggernaut Liberty Media (NASDAQ: LMCA  ) is a busy, busy organization -- acquiring and spinning off companies at an impressive clip. While it has recently taken the reins over satellite-radio company Sirius XM (NASDAQ: SIRI  ) , it has also spun out the largest premium cable company available, Starz (NASDAQ: STRZA  ) . Liberty gives investors plenty of options (no pun intended) to evaluate with its myriad of subsidiaries, not to mention the parent company itself. And still, the company has a sizable cash hoard and the ability to tap capital markets for another substantial acquisition. Though at this point it is mere speculation, where could Liberty be heading next?
