RIM also said it has set up a BlackBerry Partners Fund, a $150 million venture capital fund, in partnership with RBC and Thomson Reuters to drive development of mobile applications and services for the BlackBerry and other mobile platforms.

One of the big winners of the day was Stifel Financial SF, which shot up 13.1% after it informed the market of its 62% increase in first quarter profits.
