50 cents in a quarter

Looking at Qualcomm's earnings as being the basis of the value of the stock misses the key thing about the company, Mucho, in my opinion. Qualcomm is the company of the ages getting trapped in short-term thinking.

I think Qualcomm represents a revolutionary technology. One that in 2-4 years from now will completely change the way society functions. I thought that justified the P/E ratio. Frankly, I can't understand why Qualcomm's value is being viewed so much in the short term. There's no way GSM-based technology is going to take this planet to the stars the way Qualcomm will be able to do so. That's my view. Call me a dreamer. I thought Wall Street was seeing that last October. That's why I entered.

I deluded myself into thinking that our "instant gratification" society had vision. It does not!

TRJ on the Yahoo Rocket thread said yesterday that he still feels Q will make 50 cents NEXT quarter.

I'm having a hard time with that one.
