"It's a shame QCOM wasn't shorting the financials, housing etc over the last couple of years when the debacle became plain." No, no, and way no. Not now, not then, not ever. Imagine for just one minute they had done or done so even earlier and intead they lost their shorts. Please reply back to me with that in mind. What would you have said to such an event? I think I would have been seeing posts like this. What are they thinking? Q is in the business of designing chips, investing in R&D, and actively license their inventions. If they cannot invest the extra money in the business then they should declare a special dividend and turn it over to we the shareholders. The way it now stands they have flushed several quarters of earnings down the drain. This is what I mean when I say companies should stick to their core competencies and what happens when they stray from course. This is typical of nepotism in that they think it is their money and their company and completely ignore the shareholders. PJ has to go. Are we no better than a Roman crowd?
