UBS, supposedly capable of creating/protecting wealth, pisses it away and is rewarded.

RIMM grows at a slowing rate and is rewarded.

Apple makes a great profit and gets slammed.

Disgusting.]]>

iPod's have per-unit yielded more revenue as time has gone forward. Expect the company to continue enhancing the desirability of their phones and inching that revenue ever-upward as well.]]>

Hold On To RIMM http://seekingalpha.com/article/71181-hold-on-to-rimm?source=feed#comment-136475 136475
Consider what you're getting for the premium you pay for RIMM. A decreasing rate of growth?

Given that UBS can go up 11% after writing down 19 billion additional, and that Merril says it's fat with cash, and that people believe them, anything is possible today. We obviously want to admire the emperor's new clothes.

But 'possible' doesn't make it correct.

Was long RIMM, but it's just not worth the worry that their world is going to shrink.]]>

India, for example, while not having a carrier agreement in place with Apple, is very hospitable to the iPhone due to the ubiquity of WiFi.

This will be increasingly the case for burgeoning developing countries not hindered by legacy networks.]]>

Apple just laid one of the best SDK's ever at developers' feet.

And 100 million in seed money to boot.

This is unprecedented and will have developers tripping over themselves to publish their apps, despite the imaginary impediments you are placing at their feet in this writeup. ]]>

Hey, why don't you whine and cry over the many, many dollars that, say, Nokia, isn't getting because they haven't been getting recurrent revenue from carriers? I'll throw you a towel and join in with some crocodile tears if that will help you feel better...

You're thick as a brick, man.

Lastly, anyone who could seriously accuse Howe of cloudy thinking, should NOT stop taking their medication.]]>
