Another new recent high for Time Warner

More

Yesterday marked yet another 52-week and multi-year high close for Time Warner Inc. (NYSE: TWX). The stock was up on two developments:

1) The new DVD format from Warner Brothers that it will unveil that can accommodate both Blu-ray and HD-DVD formats. It is hard to imagine that a war in DVD formats is going to have Warner Brothers as the arbiter , but sometimes you just can't keep the children from fighting.

2) the cable spin-off or IPO. Today David Faber on CNBC said he has heard the IPO could come as soon as next week, although most expect the following week as of now.

The stock also finally saw some decent activity in the current month stock options for a change. This $22.42 high close is actually within striking distance of that $22.50 key strike price for new options, and that could act as a barrier without any news.

TWX closed up 1.77% or $0.39 at $22.42 on over 36 million shares yesterday. Today it is taking a breather. As of noon, it is down 23 cents to $22.19, a decline of just over 1%.
