Should we be worried about SOE being sold?

Depends on two things...how much they sold for and why they sold it. SOE has been dead weight to Playstation for a while and they are past their prime. If they use that money to form a new first party studio or two or invested in another PROFITABLE division, this is a good thing. However if they waste it on a failing division such as TVs or Phones, they are only prolonging the inevitable.

One thing is for certain though, I will be watching Sony very closely for the next year or so.

 

They announced a 890M investment to ramp up the production of camera sensors. There goes the money!

If you look at history though, that is a profitable area to invest the money because they are used by many different manufacturers and brands, not just Sony.  This could actually be a smart move for Sony as a parent company as long as they don't overestimate the demand.  Only time will tell though.
