Even with the hole created by the PS3, which has hurt stock, Sony continues to have increased stock value, reaching a high over a five year period.

Sony may be a bit battered and bruised as of late, but the company's financial situation could certainly be a whole lot worse, as BBC News reports that Sony's stock reached a five-year high today, after Japanese newspaper Nikkei business daily published a report that Sony profits could increase 'sixfold' during 2007. Buy, buy, buy!

The report does note the launch of the PS3 will put a large hole in Sony's finances, but strong sales of LCD televisions in the US and Europe have been encouraging.

    I'm glad it is doing good. I wouldn't want anything bad to happen to Sony.

    Sony's in a lot of other fields outside of just the console arena, but I can imagine that some of the losses incurred with this console have definitely made a big hit on sales of it.

    That's the good thing about product Diversity I guess, even if one of your products loses you money you have others to fall back on.
