Without the 'fear'factor, QCOM'S share price would be much higher, based on well-founded hopes.

a PSR of about 10 times, which happens to be about 10 times higher than the median PSR of the SPX over the last 76 years or so. A PSR median of approx 1 is surprising to me. What is it now? Ron

Mucho -- QCOM price to sales ratio police enforcement duty required right now ! For about the tenth time (not all ten times were you) ... I will NOT let your comment go unanswered. Qualcomm's sales are unusual in that they have a very large component (royalty and licensing fees) that consistently have a 90% or higher "drop right to the bottom line"... profit margin. Thus, anyone using Qualcomm's purported "high" price to sales ratio as an indication of a high stock price valuation level is either dumb or being intellectually dishonest. Jon.
