???? they are in danger or not?

They are a large company with some very strong assets, buried under a mountain of liabilities both fiscal and metaphorical. In the West, this would be a prime opportunity for "creative destruction", e.g. somebody buying them out, liquidating the dead weight, and focusing on the strong suits. Japan has several safeguards in place to prevent takeovers, however.

Nobody's seriously suggesting that Sony will be bought out, but the company is not well by any definition, and this too needs to be acknowledged.


hey you did. :P

but anyway sony is not on red

they made over $1b in profit, i think only the tv and phone division are bleeding money. everything else is fine.

i dont even know why we are talking about this 

its off-topic.


Honest question, when did sony post a profit of 1 billion? All I've ever seen is they post loss after loss. Also, wasn't so y, at their peak, worth 220 billion or so? Aren't they worth around 20 billion now?  I thought it was well known that sony has been bleeding money like no other for the last 10 years. The losses they posted in their last report was massive compared to their own projections, we're they not? I want sony to bounce back, I really do, but being blind to their reality isn't going to make it not true. Sony is, and has been, in huge trouble.
