Peck (Bear Sterns) upgrades to outperform.

Peck is far and away the most important of the analysts, as his knowledge of the sector clearly is well beyond that of any other. His downgrade coincidentally with the guidance cut really hurt XM's share price, as he had a bit of a temper tantrum at the time. Clearly, the issues that pissed him off have been somewhat resolved at this point and he realizes he had overreacted to the situation.

"...wave of negative catalysts that have plagued the company ... has finally subsided; in fact, we believe the company is about to experience a positive wave of catalysts ..."

- FCC approval shortly
- Retail Channel Check indicates healthy demand trend
- Guidance achievable, possible raise
- Liquidity not an issue
- MORE OEM ANNOUNCEMENTS IN EARLY '07, likely Toyota to announce new factory installs allaying investor concerns regarding currently slow pace of rollout and Sirius' port-installations.
- Management has been bolstered
- WCS Buildout risks removed
- Music Royalty Issue to Get Resolved
- Recording issue in negotiation
- FTC Issue Likely Insignificant
