INITIATE OR ADD TO VHS $VHS $THC

March 28, 2013

BLACKBERRY BEATS BUT HOLD THE CHAMPAGNE $BBRY $AAPL $GOOG

March 28, 2013

This morning BlackBerry released much anticipated earnings. After reviewing the earnings report, my conclusion is that it does not reveal much for a long-term investor since the company is in transition. The headline numbers were better than expected with one million BlackBerry Z10 phones sold. Here are the reasons why celebration for BlackBerry is premature: The one million number about Z10 is devices shipped.

March 26, 2013

BlackBerry’s new device, the Z10, has now been introduced in a number of markets including the United States. It appears to have had a strong launch in places like Canada, theUnitedKingdom and India. In contrast, the launch in the U.S. by AT&T has been listless. The reason the BlackBerry launch has gone better in Canada, United Kingdom and India compared to the United States is because in those countries the supply has been in balance with the number of BlackBerry loyalists. We have conducted on the ground research at a number of AT&T stores and found that there is not much enthusiasm for Z10 on the part of
