This real-time stuff is a waste of time. SI posts are delayed 15 minutes, by then any Yahoo can get a delayed quote from a reliable server (don't have to wonder if the poster is accurate). So, what's the point? Gregg is right, QCOM has explosive growth potential and those that think they can call the moves over the next couple of years will be selling at 75 only to see it zoom to 90. I think the time has come to hold this puppy as everything is falling in place. I don't discuss investing on a social level (boring) but recently I have noticed the subject of QCOM coming up socially in different circles, not the crowd that follows stocks every day (or every tick in Ramseys case) but the middle class moms and dads who want a stock to tuck away. That is because, until now, QCOM has had almost no exposure to the average person and the exposure it did have was tarnished by the negative publicity campaigns waged by our European competitors. (It won't work, etc.) Now that many CDMA networks are up and running, visibility to the "mom and dad" investor is there. They will buy and hold, it will go up and, voila, more visibility, more buy and hold (there goes the PE, look it's at 60!) Heck, even Terro will get some, O.K., maybe I'm dreaming....
