Global Equities Research launches formal coverage on BlackBerry (NASDAQ: BBRY) with a Overweight rating and a price target of $11.00.

Analyst Trip Chowdhry cited:

  • Our Price Target of $11.00 on BBRY is over 24 months to 36 months period, i.e. 2 to 3 years out
  • Quarterly Revenues and Earnings means nothing to BBRY - it is a play on a new Industry Creation catalyzed by President Trump's $1 Trillion Infrastructure spend - BBRY will have some misses and some hits over the next 2 to 3 years
    • There have only been 2 successful turnarounds in the recent Business History
      • Apple with Steve Jobs
      • Sybase with Dr. John Chen, who is now the CEO of BlackBerry
      • However, no one has so far successfully created two turnarounds
  • Our Bullish investment thesis on BBRY is based on its Charismatic Leader Dr. John Chen and his ability to create another phenomenal success at BlackBerry, similar to that of Sybase; while leveraging the President Trump's $1 Trillion Infrastructure spend
    • Dr. John Chen has in the past successfully provided his expertise to the Republican Presidents, and working with Trump's administration will be no different
