AH ER :
ACN UP 3.84%
RIMM UP 20.31%
RIMM ER was a beat on Sales & EPS.....
Sales Expected $2.50 Billion, actual $2.87 Billion, a sequential increase of 2%
EPS loss expected 46 cents, actual loss of 27 cents
Cash on hand increased to $2.3 Billion from $2.2 Billion, expectation was a big draw down?
Smartphones shipped 7.4 million beating expectations of 6.9 million
ASP went UP, expectations it will go down ?
Can all genius on Wall Street be wrong about RIMM on every metric..YES they were..but they are NEVER wrong about RIMM, because they do "hourly channel checks" ???
AH Futures Mixed
AH Asian Markets UP
AH Oil UP
AH Gold Down
About market, volume was low today which does not give me too much comfort. We did not close @ high of the day either. So be careful with your expectations about any rally until earning reports start trickling. S&P 500 CMF was barely green which surprised me.
BLOG does NOT give buy or sell.

Hi C,
Broken clock is right twice everyday.....

Hey Saleem/c,
So is this AAPL maps snafu going to cause some weakness in future sales until it's fixed do you think? If they came out and apologized for it, it seems pretty serious? Just trying to evaluate my CRUS play...
Stocktrader
Hi Stocktrader,
There is apology & "no solution" from Tim Cook......
TAPE of AAPL looks "toppy".....
Saleem
Hi C,
BIDU is @ $117......your wish is BIDU'S command....

Hey Saleem,
I'm starting to warm up to P again. There's an article today that AAPL is scrapping its music plan due to rate disagreement with Sony (not totally believing this, but its in the NY Post). Also, AAPL might be reluctant to roll out something new based on this maps debacle? (very small impact probably but just some things I think about--if anything maybe it delays the process some) Finally, the bill in Congress could significantly lower the costs for Pandora, putting them more in line with satellite radio, which would massively increase their bottom line. The chart is looking better daily.
Thoughts? :)

Hi Stocktrader,
Strictly from chart...P is above 50/200/40wk......
RSI is slanting upwards.....@ 54
Looks good !!!

Hey Saleem,
Hmm, I found some more info on the AAPL music plans, and it turns out that AAPL didn't make the iPhone 5 deadline due to the Sony rate disagreement. It doesn't sound like the whole thing is off--that makes more sense to me overall, and therefore then makes Pandora's future too cloudy for me.
Sorry for expressing an idea too early in my development/research phase!

Hi Stocktrader,
Due diligence is an ongoing thing....
More the better.

wow
Finally BIDu and me are in love again
Ab=ny idea as to when to sell???
As for apple
Hmmm
If is hit $660 or there about I am all over it
I amy nibble again at $655 dunno
If market really dives then all bets are off
I yah remember the iPhone 5 antenna snfu
S J apologized and said iPhone are not perfect and we are not perfect! The problem went away!!!!!!
In this case we have maps and supply issue
But the phone is sold out already
IMHO this is a trading opportunity -- if ya can afford it with huge dollar investment, buy on anymore dips and hold till after earnings--they may blow the socks off of us--well me a least! smile
I can remember in Vietnam that my socks rotted off my feet -----just saying
C
thanks for the feed back--cool
Hi C,
AAPL is a great trading stock until supply issue gets sorted out....
BIDU looking good $$$$$
