Among all the San Diego Comic-Con rituals, none is so common or frustrating as waiting. Arriving at the show early Friday bought me a spot in line about eight hours away from entering Hall H and the high-interest panels for The Walking Dead and Game of Thrones.
Lines and waiting, two Comic-Con traditions. Photo credit: Tim Beyers.
I didn't stay, and as I'll relay in a different article, that turned out to be a wonderful choice. Comic-Con offers such a bounty of opportunities to see and discuss great content that it's tough to be disappointed with the experience.
Take the Nickelodeon panel. Fans behind me in line for Ballroom 20 couldn't have cared less about a later panel for Walt Disney's forthcoming Agents of S.H.I.E.L.D., which I was there to see. Rather, they were there to scream and shout for Avatar: The Legend of Korra, an animated series whose second season kicks off in September. Book One: Air drew 4.3 million viewers per episode, a huge win for an animated show and Nick parent Viacom (NASDAQ: VIAB ) .

Weekend news likely prompts a negative reaction Monday, but Tues-Wed could go either way. GM stock could respond well if March share meets/beats expectations and if GM were to make adequate statements explaining concerns and offering remedies (OnStar can play role here). A sub-17% share and/or more negative revelations could pressure the stock further. We enter the week with a buy-on-weakness approach but acknowledge that this latest escalation adds ST market share risk. Thus, we also look to add positions in Buy-rated Ford (F) (possible ST share gains) and [American Axle & Manufacturing (AXL)] (pulled back + Q2 schedules appear intact).
