Sirius XM Radio Inc. SIRI broke out last week with very good volumes. The stock could touch an upside target of $2 in the medium term. SIRI will face some resistance in the zone between $1.85 and $1.88. Once this zone is surpassed, there can be a rally to $2 and then $2.15. Hold with a stop at $1.61. Fresh buying can also be done with the same stop.
