Transactions: 9/3/07-9/7/07
Radio trading made somewhat of a comeback in the first week of September. It wasn't all that amazing or anything, but when you consider four weeks of August yielded only 33.09M worth of value, this week's 32.364M looks pretty good. Also encouraging was that six separate transactions managed to clear the 1M hurdle, so it wasn't a case of one agreement providing virtually all of the cash changing hands. Clear Channel was a shadow on the TV side, as a pair of stations it sold were resold.
