Research in Motion's flagship product was obsolete upon launch and is getting discounted by 50% two weeks after release while competing handsets can't stay on the shelves at FULL price. RIM needed a home run with this product, and instead it struck out. This portends very bad things for the share price in the medium to long term, sans a buyout/takeover.
We have just released our extensive forensic analysis and valuation of Research in Motion (RIMM), delving into its intense competition with the rapidly growing Android, and the well received iPhone. Guess what (and as I warned weeks ago, before their recent product launch)... It doesn't look too promising for the Blackberry crew!
Those hardware vendors that have adopted Android are experience monumental growth, eclipsing the growth rate of the previous smart phone champ, Apple. As software vendors take note, expect to see massive strides in the Android ecosystem. Will this be the first time in the history of consumer technology that an opens source, free platform dominates telecom, media, and data? Who will profit the most from this?
Second-quarter GDP in Greece estimated to have fallen by 3.5% year-on-year. I'd like to bring to your attention that this is a pace that is over 11.5x WORSE than the projections that Greece used to get the austerity package-based bailout!!! It is also much more in line with what we anticipated at the research group of BoomBustBlog. Anybody want dibs on whether we are also more accurate about the point of Greece's restructuring causing a contagion effect?
