BlackBerry Z10 UK sales reportedly off to a strong start | NDTV Gadgets



Just for some cool localized info, the Z-10 is also China's most modern attack helicopter.

Problem is - ever single news report tracks back to a single analyst - Peter Misek - anyone got any channel checks from other analysts?

BTW. I'd like to report that was I was able to beat my target of 10K shares without spending any extra money. Woo!

I wasn't referring to that link for sales numbers. I was looking at the China launch date of Feb 5th.

actually making the move to finish above 15, nice!

[damthrill]

just cracked $15!!!!

[duckJAI]

broke $15 just before EOD.

What a rally.....sets us up tomorrow nicely.

[Mr.Conviviality]

what a tease... $14.99

:P

[BThunderW]

Yup. Closing near HOD is a good sign. Should see some more upside tomorrow. Watch for opening head fake, could be some profit taking.

[Shanerredflag]

14.99 here in Canada, up 15.22%...Cue the dancing Banana:

[rocdynasty]

great day today. whats the general idea for tomorrow? i have positions in BB right now, but i am looking to increase my shares. the canada launch helps.....or ppl take their profits and run?

[Munchito1976]

agree, I'm anticipating a head fake at open.

[StormieTwo]

that's a lot of bullish sentiment. I wouldn't be surprised to see profit taking in the morning. I'll watch for the 10am dip and hope it gets followed by another rally on news of sales. I don't think we'll see any line-ups because the pre-orders have been given times to show up to get their new phones.

[damthrill]

can you do the disco moving around banana? makes me laugh for hours...

[Shanerredflag]

Bell is opening early for the launch tomorrow, (I just called) it will be at 8:00am. This is good...full two hours early. I live in MTZone so markets don't open till 7:30 am here...this is bad as I will be picking up my phone at 8:00 and will miss any early trading or false moves.

OH well...aLONG for the ride on this one anyway.

[DarrenHD]

Well still alot of shorts out there, so if we are up pre-market it could scare more of them....I'd like us to get above the recent highs and close there. If we do I think we can see $20/share in the short term. Especially if we get positive news out of the Canadian and Middle East launch.

[jvercetti]

what's a headfake?

[duckJAI]

maybe I'll buy in at the open if there is profit taking to average down.

anyone else in the same boat?

[GTiLeo]

big just to day folks you can only short a stock for so long before things get good again

[Shanerredflag]

This one?

+1. I was concerned that Misek was the only "source". But an article on seeking alpha showed some localized sell out results. So it can't be completely false.

[BThunderW]

Stock opens, starts moving in one direction hard, then reverses course shortly after.

So tomorrow could open high, drop fast and then quickly reverse and start climbing higher than open. Or the reverse of that.

Also. New HOD in AH. That's a good sign.

It's "some dude" who takes a walk along one a street in one of most affluent areas in the capital and pops into three stores - that's worth as much as our forum posts!

I still cannot get around the fact that if there were lines as claimed by Misek - why can't we find any evidence of them? Nobody took any photos, nobody mentioned them on social media - there is nothing, there is nothing to suggest the sort of traffic that supports 200,000+ sales. Even on twitter over the last 2 days I cannot find more than 150-200 "I bought" posts - now I'm not claiming that ever user would be on there but you'd expected that for a phone geared up for social media, you find a higher frequency than that - I saw the same things when people were claiming that WP7 had a solid launch. I don't like it, none of the usual signs are available and I can't understand what is causing the mismatch - it's puzzling.

[Shanerredflag]

My local store confirmed NO white Z10's and they are hoping to fill all the pre-orders but no guarantee’s everyone of them will get one...take it for what its worth, one store...lets hope they are all like that across all carriers...then we will have something big.

I do think with all the local interest and news worthiness (because it's a favorite Canadian company) we should get a better feel for what is happening through the media...hope so anyway.

[duckJAI]

All UK crackberry fans should call all surrounding stores and do a check list of which ones have stock and which ones sold out.

I know i know, wishful thinking =P

You have to remember who you are dealing with. Don't feed him any more. LoL
