BUY
About as cheap as it has ever been. Apple (AAPL-Q) and this company are the 2 main major competitors who are gaining market share and Nokia (NOK-N) has the brand.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 2/09. Down 2.4%.) Still likes. As cheap as it has ever been. Have the carrier relations on a global basis to continue to compete. Smart phone market is growing. Trading at 16X current earnings.
TOP PICK
One of the pioneers for e-mail enabled smart phones and they do their thing very well. International growth is phenomenal. Trading at only 10-12 X multiples on next year's earnings and growing at 16%-20%. Too cheap to ignore.
TOP PICK
A way to play the smart phone market. Smart phones are starting to steal share from cell phones. Smart phone share is that about 25% and should grow significantly. Trading at only 13X earnings while earnings are growing at 20%.
BUY
Good value here. The risk is the smart phone market, which is getting more crowded. He believes this company is going to remain the cornerstone of this. Because they run their own network, they have many secondary advantages. Looking at this one now.
DON'T BUY
Stock has oscillated over the last several months because of concerns on competition. Too early to tell. Very strong in the business segment. Multiples are more reasonable than they have been but still not out of level that would interest him.
SELL
Really scary stock now. Could drop back to $60 or so quite easily and then hold. Fundamentally there is a lot of pressure because of new entrants. Use as a trading stock between $60 and $70. Expects to sell his shares soon.
BUY
Likes smart phones, which is growing at 25%. Rim is well positioned and represents good value. Focused on growing internationally. Into the consumer market now and have to introduce new models at lower prices. Volume will more than offset lower prices.
DON'T BUY
Gives him the heebie-jeebies. Stock looks like it wants to go lower from the point of view of competition. Concerned about their intention to use up to $1.3 billion of their $1.6 billion cash to buy back stock. Stock is 5X BV, which means an instant rate of return of minus 80%. This will trash the balance sheet.
DON'T BUY
Difficult space because consumer products is almost becoming commoditized so the space is incredibly crowded from a margin perspective. Would prefer something like Cisco (CSCO-Q) that creates the bandwidth that cell phones are going to run off of.
BUY ON WEAKNESS
Thinks smart phones will grow by 20%-30% over the next couple of years. This company will get its fair share. There is a lot of competition. Hasn't been this cheap in a while. Very volatile. Try to buy in the $60 range.
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 2w3/09. Up 51.6%.) In spite of competition he loves the valuation of 13X forward earnings, which is half of Apple’s (AAPL-Q).
PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Feb 2/09. Up 2.43%.) A little concerned over the next couple of quarters.
HOLD
(Market Call Minute.) Hold, with a possible Sell. Competition is getting much more intense.
SELL
Because he is in a value camp, this is always a difficult one for him to step up to. Perhaps there were opportunities earlier on. Build into RIM are expectations of future growth when smart phones are ubiquitous. Had big earnings this week. He would be tempted to take profits.
