Japan’s Sharp Corp. continues to find ways to raise money as it faces an impending cash crunch later this year.

Dish Network Corp. will counter Japan's Softbank Corp.'s bid for Sprint Nextel Corp., the WSJ is reporting Monday morning.

Charlie Ergen is at it again. Here's a rundown of the telecom bids currently in play from Dish and others.

Dish has made a stunning bid to buy Sprint for a cash-and -stock deal valuing Dish at $25.5 billion. Last year Softbank agreed to buy Sprint, also for a package of cash and stock. Dish claims its offer is worth 13% more.

If you were confused by all the moves Dish Network has been making in recent years, its vision should be coming clear now that it has bid for Sprint.

Dish Network is now engaged in what is something of a tug-of-war with Japan’s Softbank over the future of Sprint. How their deals stack up.

Dish Network Corp.'s surprise $25.5 billion bid for Sprint Nextel Corp. may leave the No. 4 carrier T-Mobile with a tougher hand to play in a consolidating wireless market.
