BlackBerry: A Successful Turnaround? [View article]
What is really your question?
Thanks

I fully understand your comment and agree that BBRY is currently a stock with a lot of volatility. However, my logic was as follows: as 2013's low was $11.40, placing a stop loss around that level will lead to a loss (as of last Friday) of no more than 21%.
Thanks for your comments.

My articles are original.
Maybe you are saying that there are many articles about BBRY...

First of all, BlackBerry was barely alive one year ago. Now it is not, and I am not going to repeat what can be read in the article (which is my opinion) and in these comments.
Second, I have stated some assumptions about BBRY for the fiscal year of 2014 (ending in March 2014). Then I wrote: "Assuming that BlackBerry will continue growing to the same extent in the following year, it will be possible to accept a PE of 15".
You changed a forecast for a year as if it was for the present moment.

What I see in the chart since January is a series of lower highs and higher lows, which leads to a symmetrical triangle. As BBRY is in an uptrend it is considered a continuation pattern if the market breaks out to the upside.

I think things are going well for BlackBerry. The new operating system was decisive. Now the company needs to provide support to new products and grab market share.

But I don't agree with you. BlackBerry is conducting a turnaround in order to grow and make profits with an excellent platform. It is not pointing to downsize, quite the opposite.

Where are smartphones manufactured, number of stores in Canada, sales?
Please be more specific.
Thanks

BlackBerry R10 was not officially announced yet. It is very similar to Q5, and I'm not sure about its release. Q5 was announced... so let's wait and see.

You may be right about EPS, and a P/E of 15 is admissible because the company hopefully will be growing.

It's exciting to track a turnaround of this kind. I believe that the strategy is appropriate.

Blackberry prices have a very particular story nowadays. A turnaround is happening and many factors are in place. By contrast, S&P500 is trying to hit the sky... which is not a very promising task.

I see your point but many of BlackBerry's 76 million subscribers have loyalty to the brand due to its keyboard on other devices. And you are right: Is there a real demand by users to upgrade their BlackBerry devices? It's a good potential market for new products.

Thanks for your kind words.
The recovery of market share seems likely in the short to medium term. The new products give great hope to achieve positive results. BlackBerry has great opportunities in the domestic market but also a huge potential in foreign markets.

Economists trimmed estimates for Brazil's economic growth to 2.5%. The Real recently dropped to a four year low. However, this is a country in better shape than it was some years ago and I am sure better times will come. Brazil has everything to succeed: advanced industry, large exports, good know-how, unemployment near historic lows (5.5%), etc.
Oi has a market of almost 200 million people! Of course it has to struggle with new products and with competitors to win market share. I'm not afraid of the targets included in my article as with this management team and Oi's potential its performance will surely increase.
