BUY
In the very short-term, will be subject to vagaries of the market. Currently trading at 10 X earnings. Year-over-year growth is still approaching 25%-30%. Buy this one for the long-term.
DON'T BUY
Likes the company and their product and even likes the valuation. His concern is what happens to smart phones in 2009 during an economic downturn. Anyone who makes handsets for the consumers are really in the fashion business. Volatile and difficult to forecast.
BUY
Just started buying this Company. Have always stumbled on its valuation. Started buying in the mid-$60's and looking to build. Fabulous product and own their own operating system. Good valuation.
COMMENT
He is currently looking at this one. If you own and are comfortable with the market, you could average down a bit at this price.
DON'T BUY
The vast majority of its business is business related rather than consumers. This will be a lousy Christmas season for everybody and anybody. In the long run their move to consumer products is a good strategy but in the near term that market is not going to be very resilient.
COMMENT
Coming out with smart phones and will be competing with Apple (AAPL-Q). Spending a lot of money to market the phone and get volume. Analysts did not like this so it got hit hard. From a technology standpoint they have a good market but have to formulate a plan to penetrate that market. Expect they will find a bottom around this price and going back up.
DON'T BUY
Earnings have come down quite dramatically over the last little while. Migrating to the consumer space gives them a lot more competition. Margins are going to be decreased. Thinks it is going to be very hard for companies like big banks etc. to buy their new products.
BUY
Have expanded into the consumer area with a lot of new products that are aggressively competing with Apple (AAPL-Q) and Motorola (MOT-N). Consumer area is subject to the vagaries of consumer tastes and spending is slowing down. Think the new product will give them momentum. Good price.
DON'T BUY
Great company. Doesn't own because it does not pay dividends. Margins are going to get crushed. All of the manufacturers now are competing for the mind share of consumer electronics. Also sees PE coming down. The biggest problem is that there is no floor under a stock that has no yield.
TOP PICK
Has been beaten up with everything else and is probably trading at a PEG ratio of about 0.2, which means it's PE ratio is about 11 on next year's earnings.
COMMENT
Their product has worldwide acceptance. Client base is growing. Excellent product even in these trying times. No dividends and he is sticking to stocks that pay dividends.
COMMENT
Apple (AAPL-Q) has a very competitive product and is starting to bite into some of their growth. As a result, Apple has been doing fairly well. Tremendous product. Apple requires 10 X the number of bytes for messaging, which is a detriment. Motorola (MOT-N) has now teamed up with Google (GOOG-Q) giving even more competition. Probably does not preserve to be as low as it is.
BUY
(Market Call Minute.) Wishes it had stronger profit growth right now. ROE has clearly weakened. Good underlying fundamentals. Probably an excellent name for the next 18 months and next 5 years.
TOP PICK
One of the premier Canadian growth companies. An opportunity to get it much cheaper. Right now it is sitting in the great position of the secular boom of smart phones. Smart phones are growing. Have a lot of new products coming out in the next few months. Trades at about 10X earnings.
COMMENT
Starting to finally show some signs of bottoming. Between now and the middle of January it should get back to about $90.
