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.
BUY
(Market Call Minute) Had some problems and now realize they are not invincible.
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.
BUY
Trading at 7.5X earnings. Bought back stock last quarter and is growing at 24%. Smart phone market growth is so strong, Apple (AAPL-Q) and Google (GOOG-Q) Android can take market share from them and they still show good growth.
DON'T BUY
Doesn’t know what to do with it. Every single product they come out with is too little, too late. Thinks they will continue to loose market share.
TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Oct 2/09. Down 30%.) Investors, especially US ones, write it off as another Nokia (NOK-N) or Motorola (MOT-N). They are continuing to innovate and narrowing the gap on consumer products. Possible takeover by Microsoft (MSFT-Q).
DON'T BUY
Has had a short-term recovery but still down 25% or so year-to-date. Have some challenges. Will be volatile. Expects it to go back to the low $40's.
PARTIAL BUY
Got stopped out. If they come out with a Black Pad and it blows everybody away, things could change very fast. You could own it here but wouldn't have a large position.
HOLD
Thinks this will eventually get back to the $65 level. Now trading at 8X forward earnings. Last quarter reported a better profit number and gross margin was stronger than expected. Have focused to grow internationally. Have a lot of carrier strength globally.
COMMENT
Very cheap at 8X earnings and has a great balance sheet. Great product but has not been able to transition to the consumer market very well. They have to come out with a very good consumer product.
COMMENT
Have questioned their technology in terms of “what's next” for a long time. This is absolutely key in this kind of a company. Amount of cash and the clean balance sheet is an indication of good management.
DON'T BUY
In the near-term, he expects some of the short sellers, especially in the US, are probably going to cover their Shorts and the stock might have some momentum. There are still some issues, namely market share and overseas government security. Wonders if the stock will get stuck again at the 50 day moving average.
COMMENT
2 key factors. On the enterprise side Google Android (GOOG-Q) and iPhone (AAPL-Q) devices threaten them. On the flip side, they are gaining a lot of market share from Nokia and the international market. At current valuation a very negative scenario has been priced in. You could play this through LEAPS or call options.
TOP PICK
Trading at 7X forward earnings. Americans have completely moved out of this as they think it is dead. Analysts are expecting earnings of $5.50-$6 going forward but the market is pricing at $3-$4. Earnings next week should be a very interesting call.
