BlackBerry CEO John Chen has been having a bit of fun with the recent acquisition of WhatsApp by Facebook for $19 billion In a recent interview with CNBC he confirmed that he would “Definitely sell and recommend to the board to take it” if they were offered $19 billion for BBM. That is pretty much tongue in cheek especially since BlackBerry has a market cap of a little over $5 billion. Until that offer comes around he stressed that “the right thing to do is expand” BBM and then worry about value later.
