BlackBerry (BB-T) is evolving from its historical roots as a phone manufacturer to a software-centric company, focusing heavily on cybersecurity and automotive technology. Experts noted a significant increase in deployments and revenue growth, particularly in embedded auto software and car security solutions. While there are positive trends and a 15% year-over-year revenue growth, many analysts remain cautious, citing that the stock has seen a massive run-up and may be vulnerable to pullbacks. The consensus acknowledges the innovative technology but expresses concern over its speculative nature and modest growth expectations. Several reviewers mentioned that while the company has transformed itself, the shares have become somewhat volatile, raising questions about sustainable growth in the long term.

OTEX
TOP PICK
To some extent being cut out once again by stories of other companies, especially Apple (AAPL-Q). Thought there was a signal of fear when Steve Jobs mentioned them in his conference. Inexpensive.

WATCH
Above 50 day moving average but below 200.Trading at a forward PE of a little over 8X, which is cheap considering its growth profile. Playbook is coming out and Sun Life is already committed to buying 1,000 for its employees. Playbook could create some catalysts. Torch is doing well.

TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Dec 9/09. Down 12.41%.)At 8X or 9X next year’s earnings is priced as though it’s going out of business. Playbook will be for sale in the 1st quarter of next year.

COMMENT
Has been acting much better lately. Came out with more news on their Playbook with more competitive pricing. (Only works if you have a Blackberry.) Thinks it will do very well.

TOP PICK
(Top Pick Nov 30/09, Down 6.3%) Has liked it for a long time. Americans concluded they are going to continually loose market share. They will continue to grow. Generating cash and cash on the balance sheet. 8x earnings. Management has done a fantastic job all along. He likes the tech sector in general.

DON'T BUY
RIM is down because of AAPL and iPhones. Blackberry penetration has gone down and down. RIM is a ridiculously cheap stock. As an earnings guy, he stays away from it. He was selling puts at the bottom mid 2010. He got 4% as a premium. From an earnings point of view it is still questionable what will happen here.

WEAK BUY
He owns Nokia, which is similar in that it is a phone company, but Apple gets a much higher valuation than both and he didn’t need another name like Nokia. RIM is cheaper on a PE basis. Lack of diversification represents a risk in 10 years. Otherwise he would say this was a good investment.

BUY
Analysts in the US are very negative and in Canada are positive. Traded by high volume traders. Very positive reception on the playbook. Market is not very patient and soon forgets. We may get a pull back. We formed a triangle on this stock. He expects Rim to do well up until January.
electricalelectronic
COMMENT
It is oversold, given that no one expected them to come out with the product they did (Playbook). The issue for RIM is that they are 3’rd place in the marketplace in terms of units that are friendly to developers. RIM is going to pick up, though. The stock could run a little bit, but then the quarter might disappoint.
electricalelectronic
DON'T BUY
The problem is that Apple’s earnings were up 70% because they took market share away from the smart phone guys. 8 P/E and growing at 20% would make it cheap only if it can keep its growth up. He thinks the market sentiment is so overwhelmingly in favour of Apple that he doesn’t own this one. They are not seen as the leader in the industry any longer.

TOP PICK
Room for more than one player in the market. Been in the penalty box for better than 2 years. Still producing tremendous earnings and revenue growth. Trading at 8X next year's earnings. Blackberry Messenger (BBM) has been a huge win for them in keeping their customer base and expanding into the consumer market.

HOLD
Recent numbers and recent product releases are very positive. Unfortunately, US analysts love to hate this one. If the stock turns a corner, it will take off like a rocket. Incredibly cheap at 8X PE multiple.
