BlackBerry (NSDQ:BBRY) stock is a very volatile stock. When the company announced its latest set of earnings on the 20th of December, the share price rose to around $8 a share, but since then has plummeted back down to the $7 level. Blackberry is unique in that it is a low priced stock but is just as liquid as many of its peers. This combined with the volatility of the tech sector attracts all types of investors and traders as volatility is a guarantee (which we have obviously seen over the past week or so).
BlackBerry's latest fiscal third quarter was definitely a mixed bag. On one hand, you had aggressive margin expansion and a surprising profitable quarter on a non-GAAP basis, but on the other hand, top line came in $20 million short of what was expected. A return to revenue growth is expected next year with enterprise software & QNX probably leading the way. Blackberry and its investors know that if this company can comprehensively combine these areas as well as its security wing to work cohesively in the emerging Internet Of Things market (IoT), then this company will have a strategic competitive advantage. Blackberry's pivot from hardware to software may have been well timed but I would still recommend caution. Here are three reasons to back up my case.

Best Low Price Stocks To Own For 2019: Chesapeake Energy Corporation(CHK)
Advisors' Opinion:- [By Matthew DiLallo]
The main driver of Crestwood's financial rebound has been the company's ability to lock up new expansion projects. Last year, for example, the company initially expected to invest $250 million to $300 million on expansions but boosted those figures up to a range of $300 million to $350 million after securing additional projects, such as expanding its Jackalope joint venture with Williams Companies (NYSE:WMB) to support the growth of Chesapeake Energy (NYSE:CHK) in the Powder River Basin. That joint venture with Williams Companies should be a key growth driver in the fourth quarter because of the anticipated start-up of additional processing capacity at their Bucking Horse processing plant. It should also help drive growth in 2019 as they finish the second Bucking Horse facility and build more gathering pipelines so that Chesapeake can double its output from the region in 2019.

Friday was mixed on Wall Street, with the Nasdaq Composite eking out minor gains even as most other major benchmarks finished down modestly. Market participants seemed largely content to see how things played out on the geopolitical front between the U.S. and North Korea, and key reversals in other financial markets helped send 10-year Treasury rates back below 3% and also resulted in a substantial drop in crude oil prices. Despite generally quiet conditions, bad news sent shares of certain companies lower. Accuray (NASDAQ:ARAY), Cincinnati Bell (NYSE:CBB), and Chesapeake Energy (NYSE:CHK) were among the worst performers on the day. Here's why they did so poorly.
