COMMENT
Everything resolves around June 24 when they report upcoming quarter of earnings. Analysts expecting $1.40 compared to $1.20 last year. Looking for unleashing and dates regarding their Slider product, a combination of a touch-screen and pop down capability with a QWERTY keyboard. Will be the first release of consumer oriented version 6 software. Stock is dirt-cheap.
BUY
New product coming out in September. Also announced a tablet for January. With product cycle behind them, they have definite advantages with a change in the tiering system for mobile broadband in US from AT&T, which would favour this company over an iPhone. Only trading around 11 times.
DON'T BUY
Looking at balance sheet and income statement, you would wonder why you wouldn't Buy. Tons of cash and earnings are going to go higher. Problem is too much competition. Too much of a fashion stock.
DON'T BUY
We are at the lower end of the trading range over last 8 months. This stock will lose $5 very quickly if it breaks the low end of the range. Don’t buy now - bid $55 and wait a month if you want to get it.
TOP PICK
It’s a great company with great growth at an incredibly cheap multiple. These guys and Apple will own the mart phone market and these guys own the business market. They invest in new products all the time. They an apple only have 3 percent of the cell phone market but control the fastest growing segment of the market.
PAST TOP PICK
Top Pick June 11/09, Down 32.79%) Had a couple of bad quarters recently.
BUY
20% share of Smartphones, which is a market that will grow over 40% this year. Strong competitor. Developed a relationship with the main Chinese carriers and expect they will be launching products through their distribution channels. Expect a launch of some new phones later this year with a new browser. Trades at 11.5X forward earnings so very little valuation risk.
TOP PICK
Will continue to benefit from the secular trend towards more and more people having smart phones and fewer cell phones. Growing earnings at 20% a year and trading at under 12X earnings.
TOP PICK
Other than Nokia (NOK-N), it is the biggest smart phone vendor. Apple (AAPL-Q) and Google (GOOG-Q) are gaining but RIM continues to have a very strong position. Smart phone market is a big one and growing. Very strong internationally.
COMMENT
Great product. Suffers from a couple of different things from Apple (AAPL-Q). Apple has AI phone allowing a great number of apps to be written. RIM has many different kinds of phones. Cheap stock.
TOP PICK
Has had 5-year 20% or better year over year return on equity. Business exchange server and global market penetration. Cheaper valuation than Apple. Gaining market share in smart phones. Clean balance sheet, no debt. He thinks they should look at a small dividend.
BUY
Fairly good chance it'll earn in the $6 area next year and if it gets back to the 15X multiple you are looking at a $90 target. Selling at a much lower historical PE ratio than it has.
DON'T BUY
Have a ton of competition from Apple. He prefers Apple. Is good for writing options on. He recommends writing covered call options instead of owning RIM outright.
BUY
Looks attractive at these levels. Launching a new handset technology that should come out in the next little while. More than enough revenue for both iPhones and Blackberry to exist. If you own, you will definitely make good money 2 years out.
WATCH
A big player in the smart phone and smart phones are growing. They have to come out with some new products to be more competitive with Apple (AAPL-Q). Have to change their interface to get to the web.
