It’s been seven days and counting since PSN was suspended due to an external intrusion. PSN user details were compromised and has led many to lose all faith in Sony. And it looks like the outage has taken a chuck from Sony’s stocks as well. Figures revealed by the New York Stork Exchange reveal that Sony’s stocks have been declining rapidly ever since the breach announcement was made last night.
Stocks have closed at $28.93, as opposed to $29.71 at opening time, which amounts to a loss of $780191.14 during today alone. And by the look of things, the snowball tumbling down hill ain’t gonna stop anytime soon.
This is undoubtedly the biggest crisis Sony’s facing ever since the launch of PS3. We hope they manage to bring things into order before the damage becomes too big to recover from. How much more they giant loses due to this breach is anyone’s guess. But you can look at today’s tumble below:

You read Sony’s official statement regarding the matter over here. Sony’s so bothered by this whole episode that they’re even hiring new engineers to further secure the network.
On a brighter note, apparently, a Sony rep confirmed that some new features might be introduced to PSN users, including Cross-Game chat as compensation for this outage.
:wtf:

Seeing that Playstation is only a section of Sony's enterprise, I can foresee that stocks won't take a massive blow. Sony is leading in many aspects of the consumer world and they are still strong in those areas. Sad that if more time is put upon quality control and assurance for all departments, all of these event can be prevented.
