Active Stocks Under Consideration: Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI), Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML), MetLife, Inc. (NYSE:MET)

On Wednesday, Shares of Sirius XM Holdings Inc. (NASDAQ:SIRI), gained 1.54% to $3.96.

Sirius XM Holdings and the National Hockey League (NHL) recently declared they have extended a multi-year agreement to offer SiriusXM subscribers across North America live game broadcasts through the 2021-22 NHL season, and together will provide even more hockey coverage accessible to more subscribers than ever before.

SiriusXM will continue to broadcast live NHL® games across North America from the pre-season through the Stanley Cup® Final. In addition to play-by-play broadcasts, SiriusXM NHL Network Radio™ will continue to offer in-depth coverage counting news and events from around the League; player, coach and executive features; in addition to game analysis and interviews from the most recognized hockey broadcasters in North America.

Sirius XM Holdings Inc., through its auxiliaries, provides satellite radio services in the United States. The company broadcasts music plus sports, entertainment, comedy, talk, news, traffic, and weather programs, counting various music genres ranging from rock, pop and hip-hop to country, dance, jazz, Latin, and classical; live play-by-play sports from principal leagues and colleges; multitude of talk and entertainment channels for various audiences; national, international, and financial news; and local traffic reports for 22 metropolitan markets.

Shares of Atmel Corporation (NASDAQ:ATML), inclined 2.78% to $8.13, during its last trading session.

Atmel Corporation launched the industry’s most innovative Single-Wire EEPROM with only two-pins—a data pin and ground pin for operation—making the new family ideal for the Internet of Things (IoT), wearables, consumable, battery and cable identification markets. The new devices are self-powered, eliminating the need for a power source or Vcc pin, with a parasitic power scheme over the data pin. These devices provide best-in-class ultra-low power standby of 700nA, 200uA for write current, and 80uA for read current at 25 degrees Celsius—delivering just one-third of the power of leading competitors.

With confined spacing in smaller IoT, wearables, battery and cable identification applications, Atmel’s AT21CS01/11 devices eliminate the need for external capacitors and rectifiers with its parasitic power scheme over a single data pin. Additionally, the new devices have an ultra-high write endurance capability to allow more than one million cycles for each memory location to meet the requirements for today’s high-write endurance applications.

Atmel Corporation designs, develops, manufactures, and sells semiconductor integrated circuit products primarily in the United States, Asia, Europe, South Africa, and Central and South America. It operates in four segments: Microcontroller, Nonvolatile Memory, Automotive, and Multi-Market and Other.

Finally, MetLife, Inc. (NYSE:MET), ended its last trade with -1.46% loss, and closed at $54.18.

As part of the award, the firm received $15,000 from MetLife to donate to local charities of its choice.
