WEAK BUY
Is tempting but he would like to see it build a little more of a base. Just came out with 7 new products, which are selling reasonably well. Trades under a 5 times multiple, which is amazing for a growth stock. No dividends. If you are a risk taker, this is not a bad bet. Could be a takeover target.
DON'T BUY
His concern would be if they could compete enough on the innovation and product launch fronts. Very competitive industry.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Aug 11/10. Down 57.62%.) Thinks it has no bottomed and has added some shares to some of the aggressive portfolios. Trading at less than 5X earnings.
HOLD
Be prepared to hold it like there was no way to sell it. Is falling behind its competitors. Make sure it does not become an outsized position. Don’t average down. It’s still a show-me story.
DON'T BUY
Looked cheap at $50, looked cheap at $40 and looks cheap now but let the company turn and the market tell you that they have some of their problems fixed. You are way better to pay $2 more than to grab it here and watch a slide more.
TOP PICK
Has deviated so much from the mean that it is a screaming buy. It is almost 50% below the 200 day moving average.
HOLD
Rim is up against the wall. New models today are not the promised land – new software systems in them. Is dirt-cheap and is expanding dramatically in emerging markets. Worries a bit that he is too clever. He is not interested in selling it. Maybe IBM will buy it out J
DON'T BUY
Handset business is a bad business to be in. Apple (AAPL-Q) is a big name now with a whole bunch of players who do Android. There is no assurance that in 5 years any of those players will be the dominant player. The business is too unpredictable.
DON'T BUY
Value trap. Very cheap on the basis of forecasted earnings. Trading 5-6 times earnings. They are losing market share, especially in the US. Last quarter was showing signs of weakness on international growth.
BUY
Getting to be quite compelling from a value point of view. They are not going to disappear. A good company that the market has not got much favour with. Over time if they can grow earnings and grow internationally then people will attribute a multiple like the piers have .
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick July 23/10. Down 56.09%.) Had never imagined they would drive evaluations down to these levels.
DON'T BUY
From one point of view, it looks like an enormous value. When you look at the way they lose market share, the way Apple (AAPL-Q) keeps eating their lunch and what happened to their Playbook tablet device, you realize it is a value trap.
WAIT
Growing domestically and especially over seas. The problem is that the technology hasn’t improved in 5 years. New QNX platform is due to come out soon. He is looking at it.
HOLD
Hold at current. 2 current news items are disconcerting. 1) Apple's (AAPL-Q) blow-out numbers. They are also starting to make progress in emerging markets. 2) Manager who brought Playbook into existence has gone to Samsung. If you own, put a stop loss in 5%-10% below current price in case stock gets pounded unexpectedly.
DON'T BUY
This is a stock you have to stay away from. The business is massively under attack from both Google (GOOG-Q) and Apple (AAPL-Q). Dirt cheap, but dirt cheap stocks can be real value traps.
