2 articles · Updated · Sherwood News · May 30

BlackBerry has climbed more than 160% over the past three months, putting the former smartphone maker on one of the strongest runs in its history.
Retail trading is a major driver: Citadel's Scott Rubner said May cash-equity and options activity is tracking at record levels, with daily cash volumes on pace to finish about 10% above the January 2021 meme-stock peak.
QNX is supplying the second leg of the rally, as investors latch onto BlackBerry's pitch that its software could become a core operating system for robots after early use in autonomous driving.
April's partnership to deploy QNX on Nvidia's robotics platform has reinforced that narrative, echoing Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang's push from agentic AI toward 'physical AI.'
The surge now rivals BlackBerry's hottest periods at the end of the dot-com bubble and during the 2021 meme-stock craze, underscoring how much the stock still trades on big thematic bets.
