esearch In Motion Limited ([color=rgb(0, 0, 153)]NASDAQ: RIMM[/color]) is perhaps going to be the most widely followed earnings report for this week out of the known companies due to report. The troubled smartphone maker is set to report on Thursday after the close of trading and it is safe to say that the old “value stock at just 4-times earnings” no longer applies. Not by a long shot.
We argued for months and months that the cash balance, the number of subscribers still in the base, and the positive earnings at the time were not relevant because the long-term trends were all that mattered. The competition from Apple Inc. ([/color][color=rgb(0, 0, 153)]NASDAQ: AAPL[/color]) and Google Inc. ([/color][color=rgb(0, 0, 153)]NASDAQ: GOOG[/color]) have just overwhelmed the company’s market share in smartphones. The company has also faced massive internal pressures after so many mistakes have been made. Now RIM does not even operate profitably.
What makes this week’s report so critical is that RIM shares hit a 52-week low (also a multi-year low) of $6.22 on Monday. Its short interest as of the end of August remained very high at 87.479 million shares. While that is not a record in the nominal short interest, this was a record on the days to cover ratio of almost 7.3 days.

Always tell someone how you feel because opportunities are lost in the blink of an eye but regret can last a lifetime.

It's going to be hard for RIM to bounce back.  They are going to have to come out with a truly innovative and ground breaking device to upstage iPhone and Android phones at present.  The Blackberry 10 phone and OS is set to be released in Jan 2013 but from what is see (video below) it's not going to solve RIM's problems but as always, the market will decide.

Yep.  In the smart phone market you're either a leader or a hopeless follower.  First was Nokia.  They had the market by the balls but then they let RIM come in with email and internet functionality.  RIM then lead for a quite a time, especially in the corporate/business world.  Then came Apple's iPhone and blew them, and everyone else, out of the water with APP and touch screen functionality.  Now we have Android phones like the Samsung Galaxy S3 which are giving Apple a real run.

Neither Nokia nor RIM will ever get back even a fraction of their previous market share because neither are innovative enough to come out with the next big thing in the smartphone world.  And that's what its all about - the next big thing.

Perhaps the most perplexing aspect of AT&T Stadium, otherwise known as “Jerry World,” is the glare from the sun that bursts through the windows and shines directly onto the field. Time and time again the glare has impacted players’ visibility during games, yet Jerry Jones refuses to make any changes to account for the sun.

Rather than install curtains, Jones has previously said he feels it’s a home-field advantage to have that type of stadium factor impacting games. Well, the glare ended up benefitting the Chiefs early into Thursday’s Thanksgiving game, as a pass from Dak Prescott to George Pickens fell incomplete, at least in part due to the impact of the sun’s glare.

SerenaThis batting performance by the West Indies in the second innings blew me away. I kept closing my eyes and then rubbing and opening them again and sat transfixed as I watch that unbelievable partnership between John Campbell and Shai Hope. What a magnificent performance by these two! It just goes to show that patience, determination and effort can go a long way to improve the performances of the West Indies team. Let us hope that this effort by West Indies batsmen would not be a one-off performance, but will be the beginning of a renewed effort to improve the performances of the team, going forward.(13.10.2025, 09:28)(09:28)0

WarrenJameis Winston is asked about being named QB3 on the Giants' roster behind Russell Wilson and Jaxson Dart:

"As a competitor, you want to be the starter. But I prepare to be the starter, I know I'm a starter in this league.

But you have to be able to be grateful for your role...my role right now is to assist Russ and Jaxson to be the best that they can be while preparing to be the best that I can be.

No matter if I'm 3, 33, this is my first year being number 19, so it's always a first for everything.
