Wow! After the announcement of the THX partnership and news about the ZiiEGG, many in the Creative community (myself included) felt like the company had pulled a 180° and was now sailing into a brighter, more positive future. Apparently, the markets feel the same way- Creative stock is up massively. The price opened at $5.95 per share on Tuesday- a 30% uptake in one day. Unheard of. As of this post, it’s up another $1.10 today- another 20% increase by my math. These are levels that the company hasn’t seen quite some time- eleven months according TODAYonline. It seems that the press is taking note as well: Reuters, TODAYonline, and ChannelNewsAsia all have stories featuring Creative. TODAYonline even opened with the following line: “Is entrepreneur Sim Wong Hoo crafting a new strategy for his company?” Surely this can be only good things for a company that has seen only negative momentum on the stocks- let’s hope the market share for DAPs follows shortly. C’mon Creative!
