We do not expect further fall in share price and believe that the new Sony Corp's ( ) ‘Playstation Move', if released in 2010 may drive sales at EA. Going forward, we expect the company to perform in line with the market. Furthermore, we think that the valuation is fair, given the fact that the company's earnings are expected to grow at 13.8% in the next five years, compared to the peer group's expected growth rate of 11.8%. We therefore set a price target of $19.50.

" 'God of War III' is a cornerstone for the Playstation 3 because it's one of only a handful of big properties that's exclusive," said John Taylor, managing director at Arcadia Investments. Now that Sony has a highly anticipated video game on its hands, good luck in finding a Playstation 3 to go along with it. A supply shortage is making the powerful console, which also plays Blu ray discs, DVDs and music and connects to the Internet, extremely hard to find at retailers, hindering the company's ability to capitalize on the excitement. Recent visits to Best Buy, GameStop and Target stores in West Hollywood, Calif., found all them sold out; a clerk at Target said they haven't had any in stock for more than two weeks

For example, Sony is consolidating 60 US and European data centres into one facility. In most cases, Sony owned the building and computer equipment inside the facilities, but now it plans to outsource management of its single data centre to a third party. Atul Goyal, an analyst at brokerage CLSA, issued a May report titled George, Bail'em Out. Mr Goyal writes in the report, which was issued before Mr Bailey's start at Sony: "He may not be a rainmaker on day one, but as Sony's chief transformation officer, he is more likely than not to ask the questions that the market has been asking for years.".

In the last 12 months, Sony's stock price has doubled compared to a 40 per cent rise in the Nikkei 225. Barclays Capital consumer electronics analyst Yuji Fujimori sees some parallels between Sony's restructuring steps and measures that Apple took in the late 1990s.

Akamai's content distribution infrastructure was earlier adopted as the content delivery platform by larger firms such as Sony Corp ( ) for PlayStation network, Nintendo ( ) for Wii, and Game Almighty for its website. Thus, Netflix chose Akamai's global distribution platform for its highly scalable performance and storage capacity to ensure uninterrupted streaming of hundreds of thousands of movies and TV episodes during peak times. We believe that the High Definition (HD) quality video over the Internet should help drive bandwidth requirements through 2010, driving demand for Akamai's services.
