The management at Research In Motion (RIMM) disappointed this past week as it appears they failed to launch the long-awaited buyback<\/a>. Who can blame them? It was a week of dour headlines filled with yet more European sovereign debt fears. Even RIMM’s mega-millions may have been wiped clean in a flash if the macro-headlines turned deeply south. The week had its brief moments of excitement, but sellers were quite effective in pushing back every single attempted rally in the stock. RIMM ended the week down 5.0% while the NASDAQ declined 2.5%.<\/p>\n

{snip}<\/p>\n

Whatever scenario awaits RIMM, the chart suggests to me that a big move is brewing. The churn in a tight trading range for the past month has generated pent-up energy translating into a “Bollinger Squeeze<\/a>.”…<\/p>\n
