The debt topic is a joke as well. Of course they have debt. They borrowed 1 Billion dollars to launch their new satellites. Guess who they borrowed it from? Jay Monroe, the owner who also owns the company that loaned the money to them. Look them up....Thermo Companies. They don't just throw money away.

This is just a money grab that should be illegal. Small investors will sell. After they make money by shorting the stock they will turn around and go long and make money on the way back up also. Smart on their part I guess. The SEC won'b bother looking into this so nothing we can do. I'm still long, but albeit nervous. I'm down A LOT.


Everyone who is in this stock is in it for one reason. The FCC approval. If you're in it for the financials and technicals then you're in the wrong stock.
Well, I'm still in it. I'm down pretty good right now but, it's money that I could afford to lose, although I don't really want to.

The gambler in me says buy more while it's down but, the conservative side of me says don't throw any more in than I already have.

I just noticed GSAT's 1 year price target on Yahoo Finance just increased today to $6.00.

Here is what one of the investment firms, Maglan Capital, are saying about this Kerrisdale report. This is from today.
__________________________________________________ ___________________

When Kerrisdale Capital first released its short thesis this morning, the characteristic plunge that we’re used to seeing from high profile shorts didn’t materialize, at least not at first. But when Kerrisdale CIO Sahm Adrangi began his presentation this morning the price fell by double digits very quickly, reaching -15% before bouncing back to -11% as opportunistic investors started going long to squeeze a crowded position and bulls built up their position even more.

TLPS is an end run around traditional gatekeepers: Odeon Capital

“Kerrisdale’s thesis reveals a material misunderstanding of what the TLPS opportunity is all about – their basic argument is the wifi of today works- is free (misconstrued) and there’s plenty available– so why would there be any value to Globalstar’s spectrum,” wrote Jason Bernstein for Odeon Capital Group in an email, standing by his Buy rating and $5 price target for Globalstar, Inc. (NYSEMKT:GSAT). “The answer is gatekeepers. Today, carriers and cable companies provide access, you need them to use wifi. Ultimately, TLPS provides an end run around the traditional gatekeepers, and we think that’s a very compelling incentive.”

Bernstein doesn’t completely dismiss the presentation, acknowledging that Globalstar, Inc. (NYSEMKT:GSAT) has a rough operating history and that some of the technical issues Kerrisdale raises are worth discussing, but ultimately he says that there is nothing that makes him change his opinion about the value of GSAT’s spectrum or the company’s prospects in general.


Maglan Capital says its increasing its position on Globalstar

When Maglan Capital explained its reason for going long Globalstar, Inc. (NYSEMKT:GSAT) earlier this year it used similar reasoning, arguing that GSAT should approach Apple Inc. (NASDAQ:AAPL), Netflix, Inc. (NASDAQ:NFLX), Amazon.com, Inc. (NASDAQ:AMZN) and other tech companies that would want to offer customers free internet access to differentiate their products in the market, even if that meant paying for access up front.



“Imagine if Apple could offer its customers a ubiquitous, free, worldwide WiFi, with an unrivaled level of speed and clarity. How much more would customers be willing to pay for an Apple device?” Maglan wrote in a May letter. Maglan tweeted during the presentation that it’s buying more Globalstar, Inc. (NYSEMKT:GSAT), so it hasn’t been impressed by the presentation either.

The price drop was a sham by a Hedge Fund shorting the stock and making false claims about the company. GSAT responded to the allegations with tons of information. To much to go into on here. Nothing has changed. It's all still an FCC decision we are waiting on.

Sure wish I had dumped this when it was over $4!

They're not even releasing any new updates or news on it that I can see after Jan 14. To me(correct me if I'm wrong), that's not a great sign.

Hold Tight!!! There was a big meeting last week at the FCC. This is the biggest meeting so far, with a large number of attendees. With lots of legal counsel from GSAT and others in the internet and WIFI arena's. I keep up with this and I'm not worried about share price. It's just due to no news.

Well, wouldn't want to tell anyone yes or no. But I've done the research and if I had some free money I would still be buying. My cost average is still higher at $3.75 because I was still buying at higher prices before that hedge fund played their games with the stock. I wish I would have sold and bought back cheaper. Could of doubled my share count but I'm to chicken to play with my money like that too much. LOL

I got in at 1.88. So I'm comfortable with my returns already just trying to be greedy.
