Canada would have the support of every single other country on the Earth if this were to happen.

Speculation is necessary to have a working market. Without speculation there are no "noise traders" aka no liquidity.

Nobody said anything about the recession being over... They are saying slow growth in 2010. As opposed to economic decline as per the bears.

Anybody watch the Colbert Report? He is on a huge tirade right now supporting the fly and the fly's family LOL. He even has a jar full of flies on his desk that he claims is the extended family of the dead fly haha.

Money moving out of bonds and into equities = optimism. Inflation fears - money moving out of bonds and into equities.

Fed liquidity has nothing to do with smartphone business. People would buy smartphones even in the worst of times. Like I said, many people consider their smartphones an essential as opposed to a luxury. You could be right about RIMM being past it's prime, but I still think they will be...

Squeezing margins is typically a problem with increasing competition but RIMM was showing <b>increased</b> margins as well as market share. I think an important thing to note is the fact that the smartphone industry as a whole has a lot of room to grow, which means it's possible for the...

I think the IMF came out with a report today also saying the recovery has begun. I find it unlikely that so many countries, economists etc. would predict recovery in 2010 (albeit a slow one), unless there was some merit to it. By all means the top dogs have been wrong before and will be wrong...

They've had quarters like this before (mediocre). I've been following this stock closely for two years now. Last spring they reported a quarter that missed expectations and caused a drop from ~$140 to ~$100 and everyone wrote them off then as well. It's true, the space is more crowded, but...

Not sure I am buying your analysis... This actually was a good quarter for RIMM but as I said, expectations were just way too high. They needed to blow the numbers out of the water to see a pop. Let's break some of it down: <b>1. Margins increased over last quarter from 40% to 43.6%.</b>...

What do you see in the chart that makes you think they're finished??? Don't underestimate the demand for smartphones. The demand is huge. People are starting to consider their Blackberry as an essential item, especially businessmen. If RIMM keeps producing new gizmos with new gadgets...

LOL That cartoon is hilarious because it's true. I see alot of BO supporters, although his popularity is quickly dwindling due to the protectionist clause in your government's stimulus. It was shocking to me how some Canadians continued to support him during the campaign even after he...

I dunno....today's selling makes me think that maybe somebody knows something that we don't... Unless of course people are just trying to get out before earnings are released as a "just in case" scenario. Either way, I reiterate my nervousness for the longs out there sweating this one out.

I think there is merit to the argument that all of this aggression is linked to a passing of the gaurd in North Korea. If he really is appointing his son as successor (26 years old), this could be an attempt to boost morale in North Korea by showing military might and the ability to stand up to...

LOL we are not far behind up here. With the exception of myself who eats fast food on a daily basis and can't gain a single pound.

I would fade the move whether up or down because of momentum traders that you've mentioned. Any move after earnings is likely to be too excessive.

What happens when traders have a bias? I personally think it's important to look into the future and form a bias on market direction. That doesn't mean you stick to that bias and are not able to bring in any contradictory information (permabears), it just means you form a plan based on...

True. Out of curiosity, how long can one claim UI benefits in the USA? Or is it different for each state? In Canada we can claim for 52-60 weeks depending on a few different factors.
