OT: My ARMHY friends,

ARMHY is giving QCOM a run for my #1 percent returner :)
30 week chart (since I bought ARMHY)

I think the reason for QCOM recent drop is that the analyst meeting,
is schedule for tomorrow, Feb. 17. The analyst were expecting better
weather in San Diego. Get to leave cold NYC for a nice trip to San Diego.

BUT NOOO!!!! A winter rainstorm is over San Diego right now,
signonsandiego.com
Now: Light Rain 62ø

The analyst will now have to leave their golf clubs behind cause of the
bad weather. The analyst are understandably disappointed.
Duhhh? then Q will suffer, 1+1 =2, come on Q shareholders ,
A no brainier, everyone know this.

All the best
Michael
