Does anyone know whether ORBI would be considered an interest rate sensitive stock? Since they have debt, would an interest rate hike affect them? It may be a good question for the company as to whether they are locked into a rate, or not.

Also, todays "down" satellite (not ORBI's) that relays pager, weather info, etc. shows how depended our daily lives have become on these satellites. It puts into perspective how important the satellite business has become to our everyday existence.

Gerald-- It was also a "1" when I last looked, (1 being "Buy"), and this was a reaffirmation. There was very little news about the company, and IMO, the rating was based solely on the year-to-year increase in sales. It won't hurt.
