Research In Motion Ltd (BBRY): Watch For These Analyst Tactics After June 28th

Waiting for more data

This idea does actually have grounding and it will probably be used by both bullish and bearish analysts following the Q1 earnings. It simply calls for waiting for the Q2 2014 earnings, which will provide a more complete picture of sales of the Q10 smartphone and some sales of the lower priced Q5 smartphone. Nonetheless, sales numbers that beat or miss expectations will probably swing the stock come June 28, but investors should keep in mind that there still is more data to be revealed.

Post earnings

Research In Motion Ltd (NASDAQ:BBRY) is the type of company that brings out the most extreme of opinions on both sides of the debate. With so much already invested in the game and so much more data to be revealed in future quarters, neither side is likely to give up after the Q1 2014 report. Tactics like those above may be used but other analysts will surely have their own ideas to be put into the game. BlackBerry investors will need to take a look across many opinions and read the reports for themselves because, with so much analyst buzz in the market, BlackBerry shares could be very active post earnings.
