Qualcom's CAGR has been running 100%+ for 5 years

if QCOM normalized earnings are $750MILLION in year 0, then they need to make $24BILLION in year 5 for your prediction to come true. that is, an expectation of profits in 5 years which are close to an order of magnitude greater than current "pro forma revenues". of course, that is more than any company has ever earned, but then again, we are talking about the great QCOM. still, somehow i doubt this will come to pass. i guess it's just my silly inability to disregard the law of large numbers.

Now, anyone point me in the direction of the nearest wormhole?

now yer talkin. i put the odds of finding an operable wormhole as greater than the odds of QCOM netting $24BILLION in 2007.
