I don't believe currently Blackberry can get to $100 yet without a massive short squeeze. I think we can grow but I base this on what we have so far and what we know is coming. Im basing this on the Z10 + Q10 + Q5 only what we know so far.
I am basing all my investing on how "relevant" I feel Blackberry is staying.
I think we have a very good BRAND name.
I think we offer things other companies dont (QWERTY)
I think we have a great CEO, even if he isn't the best presenter.
I also really believe people will continue to jump off the Apple Bandwagon as really they are being bullied badly and young people / young adults don't like to be part of the uncool group.
I believe Android does NOT HOOK you like Apple does. I believe Android is a system with lots to offer and I love my Android phone. However in my mind BB10 is like Android anyways without the widgets and maximum customization. I just think Android is the top but there's nothing to really keep you dedicated to them if there is something similar out there.
So I think Blackberry is positioned very well and will do well. Currently my outlook is fine for 2 months. So hopefully within that time we get some news about the A10 or something to keep the momentum and I will continue to stay in!

You do know this is not their first rodeo in the cellphone/smartphone business right? They've been in this niche market for china/japan for years now ... taking THIS long to go for higher sales is not ambitious its finally waking up!

Key Highlights of the article ...
The die-hard BlackBerry installed base of 76 million subscribers loyal to the keyboard presents a strong upgrade opportunity,” said Um, who is based in New York and rates the stock the equivalent of a buy.
Since taking over in January 2012, Chief Executive Officer Thorsten Heins has named new sales, marketing and legal chiefs and squeezed out $1 billion in operating costs by cutting six of 10 manufacturing sites, eliminating 5,000 jobs and selling one of two corporate jets.“He’s done a great job -- he’s put up way more of a fight than people were expecting,” said Gillis. “The question is, is it too late?”
“This is the quarter where they’re likely to put product into the channel and the numbers may look pretty good,” he said. “The next quarter is probably going to be tough for them.”
“Microsoft haven’t blown the doors off that space to secure that third space in the ecosystem,” said Gillis. “It’s still an open race.”
Twenty-two analysts, including Gillis, rate BlackBerry a sell, 12 call it a hold, while nine recommend buying the stock.fedakd and Acumenight like this.06-24-13 09:15 PMLike 2 - I wouldn't partner with anyone for anything. If I was BB I would just sell secure software to all the manufacturers of smartphones. Soon people will be scared of the risks due to privacy invasion, hacks, and identity theft to such a degree that BlackBerry can make huge fortunes just by allowing them to use BB10 on their devices. Mwahahahahahaha. Lol

Perhaps he should wear glasses? Or would that make him look stupid?06-24-13 09:21 PMLike 2 - Hahaha. Totally agree. Besides, their devices have to be able to handle the far superior software and applications. Any average device won't make the grade so there has to be some monitoring of the standards.06-24-13 09:22 PMLike 0
- Holy cow, look up historical quotes from Lenovo. They went from $9.00 in 2009 to over $20.00 in 2011 and have been steady every since. Not bad at all man.

They're like the twirp that's been planning on payback after being pushed around by bullies for so many years. Will june28 be payback time? The signs seems to be pointing in that direction.06-24-13 09:46 PMLike 3
- Ha! Glad that dweeb won't be at the $100 party!
He says he missed the ability to turn his iPhone sideways to read in landscape mode on the Q10. Did he not notice that the screen is square before he bought it ? Or was he just too stupid to buy the Z10?
Posted via CB10 on a Z10 root device!
And then........ a few days later, logic kicked in !!!!
And he realised that he wouldn't be able to do that with a square screen.
So the "genius" within him said,"Desperate times call for desperate measures. Let's sell the 15 BlackBerry shares that I own."
That's probably what happened!06-24-13 10:11 PMLike 8 - As optimistic as I am with BBRY stock, don't set yourself up thinkingthat a new product launch is about to occur or a partnership announced.
Just hope for the following:
4+ million BB10 units sold
20+ cents EPS
$300+ million FCF
Those would be good numbers.
Awesome numbers would be more like:
5+ million BB10 units sold
45+ cents EPS
$400+ million FCF
And totally knock your socks off:
5.5+ million BB10 units sold
55+ cents EPS
$450+ million FCF
If those knock your socks off numbers come, this stock will shoot to $20+ in one day.06-24-13 10:16 PMLike 5 -
4M+ million BB10 units sold
but still 50+ cents EPS (they got $0.22 EPS with 1M BB10 sold, with 4M+ BB10 sales, it's entirely possible to have $0.50+ EPS)
and $400+ million FCF
Will it rocket to $20+?06-24-13 10:18 PMLike 0 - As optimistic as I am with BBRY stock, don't set yourself up thinkingthat a new product launch is about to occur or a partnership announced.

He says that he is not sure if the 13Fs are held for any time period, but he thinks that if they are not immediately released that they are released within 1 day. Perhaps they just collect on day 1 and release everything at a specific time on day 2. But he wasn't sure.Bugmapper likes this.06-24-13 10:25 PMLike 1

I've seen 80% jumps on occasion but not much more than that. To jump to $20 would be a 40% jump. Not crazy but rare.
NOTE:
What I find amazing is that all the info for my initial investment in BBRY a year ago was out there. Most of it not even well hidden. And every bearish article I read had atleast one glaring "error" or flat out lie. remember the bankrupt baloney? I mean, how hard is it to read a balance sheet? All talk, no substance. About 2 hours of good research into BBRY a year ago and I was just dumbfounded how reality and "reported reality" were two totally different things. With every passing day, bears have less ammo in their clip. Eventually they'll be shooting blanks because the reporting will be primarily bullish. And then people will get it.06-24-13 10:35 PMLike 9 - Dude, we are aiming for the summer. No winter storms to deal with. I'd in all honesty buy something but I have no idea what. I was thinking about going to Disney and getting some of the $700/night rooms.06-24-13 10:39 PMLike 0
