you missed the deferred tax asset charge related to the OBBB tax change - that reduced GAAP earnings by 5bil or 50%

AJ, re: QCOM earnings / PE..................................................................

Were last quarter’s earnings anomalously low?

Yahoo and other sites base the current PE on GAAP earnings and forward PE on Non- GAAP earnings.

Its an oranges v bananas comparison, making comparisons meaningless, unless normalizing the two. There was a huge adjustment to GAAP earnings last quarter impacting the whole year as stated in prior post.
