Palm, Inc. (PALM)

CAPS Rating:

The Company develops, markets and sells a family of mobile computing solutions.

Rating a stock in CAPS consists of three components:

Your call - Will this stock outperform or underperform the S&P 500? Successful picks are measured in terms of whether or not you were correct and by how many percentage points.

Your time frame - A guideline for other members to see whether your thinking is short or long-term. Time frame is also used to calculate the stock rating, but is not used in the scoring of your pick.

Your pitch - Here's your chance to offer more detailed thoughts, analysis, concerns, or the rationale behind your call. The pitch is optional and may be added later.

Each time you rate a stock, CAPS updates the community intelligence for the company, which may or may not change its CAPS rating. For more information, visit the Help tab at the top of the page.

Recs 1 (PALM) onepremise (53.59) Submitted: 10/06/08 5:34 PM : Start Price: $5.90 PALM Score: 33.03 Palm and Access have fallen behind in research and don't have much to show for their Linux port. Android is going to beat them to the market stealing many of their customers. I don't see them making much money in the future unless they drop Access and support Android. Until then, I expect this stock to underperform. Report this Post Replies: 0 \| Reply \| Permalink Oops! There appears to be a problem with your comment.

Recs 1 (PALM) PlanToWin (96.18) Submitted: 10/05/08 4:02 PM : Start Price: $5.70 PALM Score: 31.48 The Palm hardware and operating system are going to get crushed by the iPhone and all of the iPhone knock-offs. The only hope for the company long term is to be bought. I think that the chances of that in the near term are slim and long term the value of the company will be seriously diminished.

Recs 0 (PALM) ADGrange (70.29) Submitted: 8/12/08 3:32 PM : Start Price: $7.51 PALM Score: -29.05 I'm still a believer in a turnaround with Rubenstein's arrival, the latest Centro, strong brand name. Agree that industry is brutally competitive and Palm has had many missteps, but I'm using my 7th product from them and think a turnaround is very possible.
