<<I am very confident about holding my QCOM shares but wouldn't you say that owning a property in the past has been a safer bet than owning shares in companies like QCOM.>>

I like real estate and I like stocks but the answer to your question is largely dependent on where in the respective value cycle you make your purchase. No one can escape "Buy low, sell high" if your goal is a profit. The numbers can strip away some of the emotional side of the decision.

One good approach is to do a comparison of the relative upsides, with a risk adjustment/probability factor thrown in for good measure, over a reasonable timeframe.

Good luck!
