BlackBerry 10: Too Little, Too Late To Save Investors [View article]
"The Majority of BB assets are illiquid."
Isn't almost 3 billion in cash liquid? They could buy your favourite Apple Stock with that money and drive it back up to 700$ a share. However BB is in business for themsleves. Never underestimate the value of 3 billion is cash buddy ...and oh yeah...its liquid.
BlackBerry (BBRY +2%) spikes higher on rumors Carl Icahn has bought a stake in the company. H-P was the beneficiary of such rumors a couple weeks ago. Earlier today, Scotia Capital argued a strategic partner such as IBM (once reported to be interested in BBRY's network operations centers) is likely to buy the company. [View news story]
Lets see if we can start a better rumor for another 2%.
"Apple has made an offer of 40$ a share for BBRY because they can no longer compete." CEO claims ..."If you can't beat 'em join 'em!"

Thing is the large corporate buys don't go through the little outlet at the corner store. For example:
"Hi ....I'm a General for the military and I would like to purchase 14000 BB10s for Quantico? Do you have them in stock?"
Come on nay sayers...Who bought the 1 million ? Hiens says their cash is up....what now? 3 Billion Plus? Sometimes reason and facts just don't get through to people.
BlackBerry 10: It's Shiny, It's New, But Will It Sell? [View article]
All bubbles come to an end eventually. My Uncle always sold to take his profit and was one of the people to make a bundle off of the infamous BRE-X gold venture in Indonesia. Turns out the whole mine was a fraud. Getting even 10% on a trade is a lot better than nothing. You can't time it. I also agree with you on the BB trade being a good one. Just because Apple fell a couple hundred doesn't mean it failed or is a bad company ....but at some point a good company pays a dividend and doesn't gyrate wildly. Apple should be there by now. They have lots of cash. Shareholders should reap the rewards. As a BB shareholder I hope the price has a good run to represent its true value and a nice premium. I think the price has found its current bottom and looks rewarding in the future. The roll out looks successful and I am confident now in my position.(I must admit to being worried when the price dropped big before the roll out ut I hung on fearfully).
Isn't it funny that a good company ,no matter how hard they work for success can be shorted and ruined just because there is an instrument that can be used to create money(shorting) out of fear mongering. Huge instituional flash trades are occuring at this very moment trying to scare investors who have chosen to reward RIMM with there investment. A huge flash buy in after hours trading trying to suck in new investors and then a huge sell early in the day to take their money. A big buy to pump the price and then a huge sale to try and destroy the Longs resolve. I would say the price of RIMM is holding up well under the circumstances. All of us knew that some buyers would sell on the news....good news as a matter of fact. A liittle price dive is expected after a remarkable gain.

You remember that one of the greatest NATO forces (Germany) has already gone over to BB. I would think the US Germany and Canada would want some coordination huh? I hope.

I have never understood the point of wasting your time to talk about a stock you don't think is of any value.There was a buyer for every seller on RIm in the TSX yesterday for what looked like a record trade. A lot of people are trading a stock that they aren't interested in Huh? I'm not interested in Amazon ...I never speak about it, I have no skin in the game.

We need to continually consider the source of our information. When Verizon says the BB10 has failed miserably I will believe it. If Best Buy says it ditto. Same with BB. But some self serving broker who is trying to get out of his short position says it ....consider the source.

I think what this guy is saying is that along with Perry, Bachman,Palin ,Cheney and Rumsfield... he is going to ride the Proverbial Apocalypse up into the sky and sit at the feet of "You Know Who". The rest of us humans will suffer Fire and Brimstone in the Markets with leaders of colour who are not allowed to ride out the Apocalypse. Were a Market crash inevitable ...it would have happened already. The Market is more unbalanced than anything . Until the people who are sitting on cash feel comfortable to re enter markets no one will go back to work, no one will buy cars or refrigerators, no one will buy a right priced home. We are the masters of our own future. Fear leads to decent and hope will lead to increasing wealth and confidence. Infrastructure spending will put consumers back to work. It will increase fundamental stocks. Fear mongering leads to more of the same as we suffer now. We don't need QE3 to increase trading. We need confidence and the end of fear. We need working Americans. We don't need money buried in the back yard in gold and silver.

You all talk like it was Obama who ran up the deficit. Who decided to send the army to Iraq because they were responsible for 911? The reality was Bin Laden was in Afghanistan. Who sent in an small force of brave men to eradicate the real cause of 911? Who sat back and allowed a government regulated financial sector run up the speculative value of your and my homes to the point the bubble exploded and destryed the worlds economy. Who blindly sat by while the financial institutions raped Americans savings and their Treasury while regulators were told to sit on their hands because ...."too much Government." A simple act by government to raise interest rates and lower amortizations early in Bushs' tenure would have saved this whole fiasco. The truth hurts huh? Now I didn't want to talk politics but since you all started I thought I would just shine a little light...the other truths would blind you.

22 million shares traded on the TSX today. Usually a big day was 6 to 12 million. Not much interest in BB. No one is paying any attention. Yawn..... These plays are not about the phone or the success of BB. Huge moves by big players. I lost money today. I'll be feeling bad if it drops below 11$. All the research in the world and the best product on the market means nothing here. Its just big players on two differents sides of this trade. You could argue the same thing is happening with Apple. My opinion is that you should not be able to destroy value in a good company just because you can...Should be more direction on this from regulators. They say shorting serves a good purpose in the market....but should it be able to destroy a legitimate companys' value on a highly leveraged deal? The rules favour the house and the house is run by the big players. That is my whine for the night.
