Fundamental Analysis  
Via mymoneylife.blogspot.com/:  

My Stock of the day is Research In Motion (RIMM).

The stock is bucking today's weakness in the overall market, currently up nearly $5 on the day.
Also, the stock is rising on a big uptick in volume. The list of stocks rising today on strong volume is extremely thin, so the action in RIMM is notable. The stock did get an upgrade from Merrill this morning, where the analyst raised his price target to $190.
I think the stock looks like it needs to rest a bit, but the improvement in relative strength is notable. And I think after some consolidation of its recent gains, it should move higher again.





Update 09/26:
Via mymoneylife.blogspot.com/:  

Research In Motion (RIMM) has certainly had a nice run recently, and investors may be asking themselves if it's time to take a little off the table.

The Citigroup analyst started it with a Buy today and a $115 target. He said that the recent stock price appreciation is fundamental, not momentum. He believes RIMM is just hitting critical mass adoption.

He may be right, but I am still tempted to ring the register before the company reports earnings next week. My gut tells me anything but a blowout report will result in a 'sell the news' reaction.

I will likely take profits on half my position, and let the rest ride. I still like the stock as an investment, but also like to trade around my positions.
