Short term outlook some my own speculations towards the up coming weeks, IMHO
1. Desperated attacks from the shorts will continue at the level no lower than current.
2. Provide no human factors (big news, comments, annoncements) will be involved, we should be able to expect a at least mild uptrend SP in next week and the following week, looking at a bottom be lifted to high $15s to $16, and it will help to build the basis for SP to reach $17 bottom before the June 28th Q2 numbers out, according to the various technical readings on the stock.
3. Should human factors be involved or just the diligent attacks from the shorts manage to hold the SP down so sideways it goes, we could still see a relatively stable bottom built around mid $15-$16 by then, before the Q2 is out. $14 and below would be very less likely to happen.
4. The symbolic meaning of Q2 report is way greater than the specific numbers in it, it is more of a solid signal and a uptrend towards the downside speculations. So it will certianly help to build the confidence to the share holders whether the real numbers are relatively soft or strong, as long as it is not a backward step, it will work.
5. Open up BBM is a wise move that should have come much earlier but it will still work out. The biggest value of an IM tool can provide is how widely, efficiently and securely can you communicate and share info with your contacts regardless which hardware platform they are on. This actually provides a superior oppurtunity for those non-bb users to use and to compare which is the best & powerful overall IM software out there among the platforms, you don't have to be technical, just compare.
One quick example is in order to use iMessage,
1. You have to be on an Apple hardware product;
2. You need WIFI connection.
When BBM opens up, all you need is a SIM card with data plan and a BBM enabled device!
