Christopher, re: your post "QCOM Made the February 11th issue of the S&P 'The Outlook' list of "Attractive Takeover Candidates"..."Company's proprietary wireless telephone offers excellent technology, which would be attractive to a larger company. Stock's valuation is attractive after recent fall." I don't think a takeover is likely. My understanding is that any takeover would also require the larger company to ingest a poison pill, i.e., after the takeover all proprietary patents, IPRs would be immediately free and available to all. A deal-breaker methinks.
