RIMM Poised Again to Fill September’s Gap Down

Research In Motion (RIMM) is riding a bit of upward momentum into this week’s Mobile World Congress conference in Barcelona. The chart below shows that RIMM has broken above the 200-day moving average (DMA) on above average volume. If RIMM finally breaks the $72 resistance line, it could run up relatively quickly to fill September’s gap (around $83). RIMM has already accomplished a rare feat during 2010’s first earnings season – it has now recovered all its losses from a post-earnings fade. (I thought RIMM was poised to fill the September gap after the initial positive response to December’s earnings).

RIMM has also basked in the glow of numerous upgrades the past few days. For example, on Friday RBC Capital Markets upped RIMM to a “Top Pick”, and Wedbush Morgan initiated RIMM with an “outperform” and a $90 price target (see Eric Savitz’s Tech Trader Daily for more details).
