How it trades on rate days beta 0.31 to TLT · on the worst bond days it moved with the market

How it trades on rate days

How BB has moved when long-dated Treasury yields rise — measured against TLT, the 20+ year Treasury fund.

  • Beta to long bonds, 1 year 0.31 — shows only a loose link to bond moves for every 1% move in TLT (20+ year Treasuries), BlackBerry Ltd moved 0.31% on average · correlation 0.05 · higher than 30% of US names
  • Beta, last 3 months 0.93 more rate-sensitive lately than over the year
  • On the 10 worst bond days −0.80% on average against −0.74% for the S&P 500 the 10 sessions of the past year in which TLT fell most, i.e. long yields rose most
  • Latest of those days +4.18% TLT −1.29% that day 2026-09-24

Daily total returns from the adjusted price series; a TLT down day is a day long yields rose. Beta = the average move of the name for a 1% move in TLT. Past sensitivity, not a forecast. An investment diary, not a recommendation.

Company snapshot — BlackBerry Ltd

BB in five paragraphs: what it makes and sells, where it sits in the Closelooknet stack, who it is priced against, why we track it, what we watch. Research diary, not advice.

What it does
BlackBerry sells secure-communications software, the QNX operating system used in vehicles and industrial devices, and holds a legacy patent-licensing business built on its earlier handset technology. Its software includes secure messaging, endpoint management and critical-event alerting tools sold to enterprises and governments. It was formerly Research In Motion and is based in Waterloo, Canada.
Where it sits in the stack
BlackBerry has no seat in our index; it sits within the Agentic Ecosystem sector of our universe, in the Runtime & API Gateways sleeve, alongside communications and infrastructure platforms rather than chip or data-centre names.
Who it is priced against
Closelooknet's peer group places it with Twilio and DigitalOcean under the runtime-and-gateway grouping; the market also names CrowdStrike as a comparison on the security-software side.
Why Closelooknet tracks it
It carries a Closelooknet score with momentum as the strongest module and valuation the weakest; the diary's Portfolio Diary edition noted it opening as a comeback story within two of our portfolios.
What the diary watches
The diary watches whether the recent analyst upgrade to Buy is followed by any change in the valuation module, given momentum already carries the score.

BlackBerry Ltd (BB) trades on US exchanges, classified under Technology.

The Closelooknet company score reads 49/100 composite (momentum 54, quality 48, valuation 20) across 7 modules — the full breakdown, chart structure and analog history load live above.
