Robert, I couldn't agree more, but I have one question for you or anyone else. With the large number of shares outstanding and the rather large market capitalization, is it possible for even large traders to have much impact on the price? Isn't QCOM getting to the point where such attempts at manipulation are well nigh fruitless? For any protracted selling to occur, it seems to me that you would have to see a major article in a publication like The Wall Street Journal (!).
