    Does it matter that they are losing market share and their products are really boring?

  • BlackBerry Rallies On Upgrade But 'Niche Midrange' Thesis Questionable [View article]
    Imagine telling anyone to buy AAPL. They are dead, products are outdated and boring, if you haven't owned and used the new Z10 from BlackBerry, you shouldn't be giving advice.

  • Why BlackBerry Is About To Lose Its Dominance In Emerging Markets [View article]
    BBOS 7.1 is here for years yet. Upscale consumers will go to BB 10 and the others will stay with OS 7.1, BB is in no hurry here.

  • BlackBerry Might Be Doing Better Than Most Imagine [View article]
    Great article George! The Z10 is the best phone out there now. Simply put, word of mouth will sell millions of these phones this year.

  • 4 February 'Feel Good' Factors For Apple Fanatics [View article]
    There is little support at $ 440 a share and the stock is hitting multiple 52 week lows this past month. Apple is a short all day, short the rallies, every time they try to take it higher short it hard. The company is broken and the competition is going to kill them now. Apple has the worst OS experience out there now and no new products for all of 2013.

  • Research In Motion's Profitability Isn't Far Away [View article]
    Apple makes boring phones and a terrible OS experience, how can Apple compete in 2013? I had no problem giving up their phone, its junk, and the eco system is a myth.

  • RIM's 23% Plunge, A Gross Overreaction? [View article]
    You have a drop from a stock that was up 140% prior to the talk about Services, a perfect time to knock it down and take some money off the table. No big deal but it allowed me to buy a tone more stock and look at it now. Money flows out of Apple and into RIM every day now, nice.

  • Research In Motion: Disappointing Investors And Customers Since 2008 [View article]
    Can you get serious for a moment? They are replacing services with a tiered system, one that makes huge sense because they are going beyond just BlackBerries. In addition, they get more carrier support, the same group who dropped them for all of 2012 are now on board in a huge way. What would you prefer, they not get 110% support, have to sell most of their porduct from their Website or have the resources of all carriers worldwide? In addition, they are holding the fixed fee structure on all BB O7 products and that means revenues are flat for years to come, they aren't going down. Just you you know, services are charged in many forms by all players, this isn't a "RIM only" experience here. I want security, I can't get it from your first love, Google.

    The cash on hand is nothing short of amazing, they will exit Fiscal 2013 with well over $ 2 billion bucks and that after BB 10 is selling hard. You clowns thought BB wouldn't make it to market with their phones a few months ago and now we know you were very wrong. Finally, they round off their subs to millions so the best we know is they lost over 500,000 subs, we don't know any more than that.

    We all hope you short RIM ASAP and go long Apple so that we can have the best time watching you get wiped out in 2013, some people have to learn the hard way I guess.

  • The Good, The Bad And The Ugly From RIM's Earnings Report [View article]
    The last quaerter was amazing, if any company beat their EPS by 40% the stock would be up a ton. The stock was up 140% proir to the huge short position of 130 million plus, that's right, 20 million in Canada too and probably many more after Friday as the shorts are in a whole lot of pain these days. IT's okay if Apple drops 30% because it is profit-taking and tax avoidance but when a stock is up 140% and gives up 30% it s tragedy isn't it? LOL

    As usual, the same old historic numbers come out to downplay the quarter, cash only up $ 600 million in a single quarter and inventories way down while margins are growing again. All of this mazing news while we wait for a life changing product. Services numbers aren't declining at all because they haven't changed yet, they just need to execute their plan and a ton of BB 10's with REAL security will be hitting the markets worldwide with a massive push by carriers. Oh no, that sounds terrible!!! They have zero carrier support now but you think this still bad news.

    How much are you guys paid to bash RIM?

  • Assessing My Recommendations In 2012, Plus My Top Pick For 2013 [View article]
    Apple is now in the camp of shorting the rallies, too many headwinds for them in 2013. Good call.

  • Research In Motion - Expect Significant Volatility Ahead Of BlackBerry 10 Release [View article]
    Can't wait to get my hands on the new BB 10!!! RIM killed it with very impressive numbers. The shorts had no choice but to hammer the stock in AH as it was heading to the moon. How much longer can they hold out when many of us will be buying on any dips. An amazing show of management this past quarter, RIM has it all going for them now. Let's see what you have left shorts, tomorrow is yours but you will get creamed if you think we are letting you off the hook. Apple will be down again as it is just another trading day, might be time to cash in my short position and buy some more RIM!

  • Research In Motion Short Sellers Will Not Get A Second Chance [View article]
    This is one analyst opimion, one that has always hated RIM. Can't you think for yourself? There is billions riding on a 130 million short position here and those players aren't caving in without a fight. This is pure manipulation from traders and has nothing to do with the conference call.

  • Research In Motion Short Sellers Will Not Get A Second Chance [View article]
    Good article, shorts are trying to push it down in AH but this won't work either. I sold calls against my position and wrote naked puts and that money will now go into more shares as usual. The bulls have a say in all of this and we are buying tomorrow. There really isn't much room for us and the shorts to be buying stock. The cover ratio is much higher than two days, they would be lucky to cover in 3 weeks.

  • Did The Mayans Catch A Glimpse Of RIM's Q3 Earnings? [View article]
    Who cares if the stock takes a dip on this news, it is manipulated anyway. The fact that BB 10 is so cool and that is from the stuff we know about it today, makes me think that we will be up on any news. Prem Watsa and the boys have the shorts number, they are going to burn them big time. RIM surprised us in Sept and we can look forward o more of these surprises. If you rely on analysts for your investment decisions you are in big trouble!!!!!

  • What's In Store For Apple Investors In FY13 [View article]
    Apple has several strikes going against it, lack of innovation being the most important one. Their OS is ancient, it is not something you can replace over night and it is far too restrictive to help them in 2013. The competition is leaving them behind with Samsung using much better technology and RIM coming out with the next generation of OS. They have one product that allows them to trade near $ 500 and that phone is now very boring. All of these articles can't change the obvious, Apple is boring in 2013. Would you risk $ 525 on a one trick pony?
