I am posting my theory here and not in the guru section, because I am not a stock guru, but anyway, see if you like my hypothesis for the sake of argument:

(1) The ACQUIRED company (“xmsr”) will be the company that gets the bounce

(2) “siri” has the better CEO and will be the ACQUIRER

(3) Once joined, there could be only one receiver type, much like early on in radio we got am radio—allowing for the springing forth of broadcasting

(4) The NEW “siri” could tier services after a trial period offering all the services—Tiering would allow users only to have to subscribe to the services s/he desires—as with cable

(5) Looking at the “siri” and “xmsr” charts:

(6) Xmsr has the stronger Slow Stochastic, thus indicating strong interest by big buyers of the stock -- Is something afoot?

(7) Its MACD has moved very big into the Buy range for "xmsr"

8 Its RSI is nicely above 50

(9) Its price is up

(10) All this speculating breaks one of Master Cramer's Rules: do NOT gamble on kinda/shoulda/woulda, so forget my speculating "siri" will start the acquitsition of Xm Radio within 30 days, because this is pretty lame, so forget what I have written...It's the weekend...

Very interesting, not sure what it all means though.

If I dared to be a guru, I would say expect something interesting taking place with XM radio soon

But, I am not a guru, but merely a spectator of lfe as exemplified in the stock market, for life is so focused there

I started with Master Cramer in the summer of 05, but dug in about a year ago with a Scottrade account

My Mad Money was $1,500, of which I have lost half--not because of Cramer, but just learning such things as the ins and outs of Scottrade, such as Limit Buys and Sells...Naturally, I learned about catching a falling knife

I have regrouped, learning how to do Homework, use Cramer, and patience, patience, and more patience, so I am beginning to dig myself out of the result of having Aggressive Ignorance

I am diversified with an excellent balance mutual fund where I pour in as much money as possible

I only have fun with Mad Money!

You can sure recover from a fumble. I have friends who started investing and quit after they lost only a hundred bucks.

I started investing small amounts about a year ago, and I just started watching Cramer about a three weeks ago. He's pretty entertaining and informative. I've yet to act on any of his tips, though.

Cramer is like a loaded .357

Enjoy, but HANDLE WITH EXTREME CARE

If you consistently watch him. he pretty much screams this

aka, DO YOUR HOMEWORK and have patience

Cramer has lost tons of money through the years since he was 9

The key is winning more times than you lose

NOTE: CNBC THIS WEEK IS PROVIDING ANOTHER LOADED WEAPON THAT CAN OUCH YOU FINANCIALLY: THE SHOW IS "FAST MONEY" AT 5 PM

Tread carefully, because you have 4 gurus spewing out stock tips--Remember, their stories on why their tips will work will sound like a No-Brainer cannot fail
