CNBC's "Fast Money" traders saw upside in embattled BlackBerry (Toronto Stock Exchange: BB-CA) after a day in which the stock popped.
BlackBerry's partnership with Google (NASDAQ: GOOGL) on Android for Work and BlackBerry-owned QNX's role in car "infotainment" systems have led trader Brian Kelly to believe the company still has some juice to give.
"I think if they can start to get this part of the company growing and start to do more of these deals, I think above [$12 per share] is not a problem at all," Kelly said.
The stock closed Wednesday up more than 2 percent, at about $10.50 per share. Kelly noted that he owns calls that go to March, but bought the stock Wednesday because he wanted longer exposure.
Trader Dan Nathan echoed Kelly's positive sentiment, adding that he owned BlackBerry calls that go to June. The company is a potential takeover target, and it's an appealing buy if any deal seems imminent, said trader Tim Seymour.

"This company doesn't stay independent forever. I think you buy it on a take out," he said.
Another battered tech name, Yahoo (NASDAQ: YHOO), looks like a better buy than Alibaba (NYSE: BABA), the Chinese giant to which it is linked, Seymour added. Yahoo owns stake in Alibaba that was worth about $40 billion late last month.
Yahoo and Alibaba closed Wednesday around $45 and $86 per share, respectively.

He noted that investors in Apple (NASDAQ: AAPL), which has been trading above $125 per share, shouldn't get out of the stock until the second quarter of this year at the earliest.
