Sony's Stock Rises 45 Percent Despite Problems.

After shares closed on Friday Sony's Stock had risen
to $53.48 a share. An increase of 45% in two years. Performing better then Walt Disney, Time Warner, and Comcast. Sony it seems to responsible for two-thirds of the 70 billion in sales in the year ended March 07...

and come this year Christmas or even after E3, their shares will increase greatly.

From this point on, I think, Sony’s stock price are just gonna keep increasing. Thanks to all the cost cutting measures Sony is taking with the PS3 and the excellent sales of their LCD displays. Also, Sony pictures is most likely going to win most market share this year as well.

Wontand cannot fail nor die, thats just that.

[kewlkat007]

about Sony stocks? If I was an investor or hold shares or something. Stock go up and down, next week they might fall again or next month, I'm no stock-broker, I don't praise useless news that means nothing to me. Sony is a big company that deals with many electronics and I'm sure as hell not on their payroll.

I'm just a gamer bring on the games Sony....blaaaah

[LSDARBY]

Spiderman 3, we all now thats gonna make millions. And people who know the game industry know sonys position is gonna change.

[spacetoilet]

This is yet another reality check for the doom merchant negative (M$ shills) desperation press we have seen allot of.
Sony will be just fine. And is doing just fine.

[bootsielon]

And before you say "WHAT DO YOU CARE, FANBOIS!?!" I bought the stock when they were at the lowest the last year. lol

Did you MSFT fanboys bought MSFT stock lately? If so, I feel sorry for you, because my money has grown, and your hasn't.

[Covenant]

Even with the games division struggling, Sony's other major divisions are doing well, and Sony will definitely get a substantial boost from Spider-Man 3.

Less than a year ago, Sony stock was just a step or two above junk status...now, they're recovering. Good job, Howard.

[drtysouf21]

Stocks rising, next will be PS3 purchases rising! Can't wait for more great games on PS3 to come out and definitely can't wait for Home. I already own one but with a price drop coming up too things are only looking up from here!

[JIN KAZAMA]

I cant wait for the xbots comming in here and making a fool of themselvesand twisting this great news for sony into something bad.

[Bathyj]

They deserve this turn around after all the hard yards, slings and arrows they've had to endure. I only wish I'd bought stock a year ago.

The reason people are happy KewlKat is because of all the crap we've had to listen to about Sony losing money and about Sony is doomed over the last 2 years. Now that we can see all that talk for the FUD we always knew it was maybe people like The Mart will start to lay off it a bit. I've already noticed PoG and Bladestar have stopped knocking Sony so much in the last couple of weeks and I'm impressed and encouraged by those guys. Good work if you're reading.

Maybe one day in the not to distant future we can actually talk about games we like instead of just bashing/defending consoles all day. At least its something to strive for.

[kewlkat007]

were you really scared about Sony going down the tubes? you still listening to them anlayst..eh People act like sony is only in thhe console business..like I said stocks are never certain, and fluctuate from time to time.

A couple of years ago Samsung Toshiba, and LG were not major players in the electronics division, now they are giving sony a run. I rahter companies do OK , so we get cheaper products. thats why I rarely care for stocks unless I own some share, as long as the competition is pushing companies to innovate, I win.

People have no power over Sony stocks unless you purchase all and only sony products. You might have a PS3 and a Samsung LCD tv, and a Casio Digital Camera, so your never really supporting Sony like you should (if your a loyal faithful), thats if you care about thier stocks so much.

Anyhow thats my take. Good news if you you made out.

After there gaming divison's loss on the PS3 the money is made up for on the PS2 (maybe the psp). So some investors see the bottom line they do not care about specific products in a division.

Second they had the firings (or layoffs which ever you want to call it) which basically means that the company is cutting cost. Historically when ever major companies do lay-offs the stock 99% of the time increases.

Now with the reveal that Sony is release HD Camcorders people tend to invest with new and innovating technology. Those that do care about products see this as a great spot to jump on.

With Spider-man 3 coming out in a few days again the hype surrounding it splashes into the stock market. People believe that since this movie is predicting $1 billion world wide that money can get into there pockets as well.

However with this increase the question and comments is not that Sony is on top because as far as corporations are concerned Sony is nothing when you see Big oil. The question is how high will the stock climb.

But hey what do I know apparently im just a Xbot.

[Apocalypse Shadow]

a healthy sony with good stock means sony can go full throttle in the direction they want to go.just think back to sega's stock.do you think their stock was healthy?where is sega now?

think before you speak.it has nothing to do with having stock in the company or not.it means a healthy sony can bring gamers a great interactive experience.

[TriggerHappy]

Many people on here, that are not accepting the fact that Sony is doing well is an extreme fanboy, spidey is already making history and is not launched world wide yet. Pirates of the carribean is also pending. Come this year E3, Sony will be back in the game again.

[VORODOR 2]

SONY HAS GOOD NEWS AS THIS FINALY DAMAGES ONE OF THE XBOX COMMENTS THAT SONY WILL GO BUST.
