This summary was created by AI, based on 12 opinions in the last 12 months.

BlackBerry (BB-T) has shown signs of transformation from a traditional phone manufacturer to a focused software company, particularly in automotive cybersecurity and various other software applications. Experts highlight the resurgence in its stock price following a solid quarter and ongoing growth in revenue and cash flow. Nevertheless, many analysts caution about its status as a 'fallen champion' and emphasize the need for sustained performance to justify their enthusiasm. While some view it as an interesting speculative opportunity within a growing market, others suggest it lacks dynamic growth and may not be the best place for investment when compared to other options. Overall, while there is optimism around its automotive technology and cybersecurity services, the stock has reached new highs, leading some analysts to suggest taking profits or waiting for a pullback before re-entering.

DON'T BUY
Earnings per share numbers are very strong. Devices due for release in the next little while look promising. Valuation is very compelling. Wouldn’t Buy if you don’t already own it until their new tablet is in the market place. (Apple’s (APPL-Q) iPad version 2 will be coming out at the same time.)
COMMENT
Nat fairly valued. Way too cheap. You have to be careful as Droid and iPhone is eating its lunch. A lot of optimism on its new Playbook but doesn’t know if it will hit its targets.
TOP PICK
Some risks over the next year with introduction of Playbook and migrating the new operating system on to the Blackberry but smart phone industry is growing at a great rate and they will participate, particularly outside the US. If it works out, you are looking at a double. Trading at 8X earnings.
BUY
Trading at 10-12 times earnings. Significant free cash flow. In an extremely competitive industry.
DON'T BUY
Trading at under 9X forward earnings. Cheap but where is the future in terms of market share and what’s going to happen with Playbook that is supposed to come out some time this quarter. Not sure that it ranks well from a growth perspective. Would prefer Apple (AAPL-Q).
TOP PICK
Canadian analysts have an average $95 target price and US has $65. Trading at 8X earnings. Beat expectations 5 quarters in a row. Growing at 30% annually.
BUY
Just in Vegas for the tech show and they have the playbook coming out. They did a great job and have the dominant email and business franchise. Concerns about competition and competing operating systems. Motorola is back in that game. Will be volatile for sure. On a pure valuation basis, Apple is more expensive.
WAIT
Will face difficulties for most of this year. We have a lot of competition in tablets. You might wait until we see their new products and operating systems.
BUY
The model price is $81.70, that’s a 38% positive differential. Cheap at 10X earnings.
DON'T BUY
Stock is way too choppy and in a downtrend right now. Has been trading in a fairly tight range of low $50’s and low $60’s for most of the past year. Good support at $46 and if it bounced off this, there might be another $10. You need to see this before a positive trend develops. If you Buy or Own, use a Stop around the $50 level. Looking for significant resistance around $75.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Great company but a very volatile stock. This is a trading stock as there are too many moving parts and too much competition in their space.
HOLD
Trading at a discount compared to its competition. Feels it has lesser downside risks but lesser upside. Consider going down the supply chain with companies such as Maxim Integrated (MXIM-Q), Altera Semiconductor (?) (ALTR-Q) or Broadcom (BRCM-Q). They provide the broadband and components for smart phones to work.
TOP PICK
(Top Pick Jan 29/10, Down 13.86%) There is no inherent weakness in their technology and they are coming out with new products. International is a huge growth area for them and more than for apple. Blackberry messenger is particularly addictive to young people. Their product is secure, with the others the gov’t could be listening.
BUY
Has never been cheaper on a fundamental basis. New York analysts are non-believers in this story. Reached the stage where it doesn’t matter what their earnings or forecasts are. At 8 or 9 times earnings and a lot of cash on the balance sheet, there should be a limited downside.
BUY
Strong results and the stock had a bounce but is now pulling back, possibly because of profit taking. Attractive investment right now and is trading at a very low multiple. US sales are declining but international growth is growing.
