PAST TOP PICK
(A Top Pick Jan 21/21, Up 11%) Reports tonight. Price target of $209. King of CPUs, competes with NVDA on GPUs. Outsource manufacturing. Making great hay on 5G. Recent acquisition will help them scale up to smartphones and PCs. Buy in thirds here at $175, 165, and 155. Stop of $145.

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly With a market cap over $190b, we again reiterate this proven leader in semiconductors as a TOP PICK. As supply chain issues reduce, success of its largest customer (AAPL) will also improve, driving demand and revenue higher. Past earnings beat market analyst expectations by 23% and is managing profit margins over 26%. It pays a small (but growing) dividend backed by a payout ratio under 35% of cashflow. It trades at 22x earnings compared to peers at 58x. We also like it has been buying back stock while still growing cash reserves. We continue to recommend a stop-loss at $135, looking to achieve $210 -- upside potential of 18%. Yield 1.63% (Analysts’ price target is $208.99)

BUY
Great leadership position. Expanded well beyond AAPL. Think 5G, automotive sector, plus patent and licensing division is a fantastic revenue stream. Not expensive, growing very well, starting to get attention of markets. Automotive engagement will give it greater growth, diversity, and stability. Growth not impacted by chip shortage.

BUY
It hit a new 52-week high today. Today, JPM targets $225 and named it a top pick for 2022. In terms of options, he's moving up from the $180s to the $190s. He's sticking with it. He bought back both his shorts and longs and is starting to ease those out. Why? Like Apple, fund managers will want QCOM into year-end.

HOLD
His top pick in the semis. Last quarter they hit their numbers, increased guidance. Not as dependent on AAPL. One of the cheapest semiconductor stocks. EPS can easily hit $10 next year. He'd be more inclined to play the SMH ETF, with plays all across the board.

(A Top Pick Sep 28/21, Up 39.4%)Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly Our recently reiterated PAST TOP PICK with QCOM has quickly achieved its $182 objective. To be disciplined, we recommend covering half the position at this time and trailing up the stop (from $110) to $135.

Stockchase Research Editor: Michael O'Reilly We reiterate QCOM as a TOP PICK. The company is a proven leader in semiconductors and pays a good dividend backed by a payout ratio right around 33% of cashflow. It trades at 17x earnings compared to peers at 37x and has a PEG ratio under 1.0 -- good growth relative to PE. We would buy this with a stop-loss at $110, looking to achieve $182 -- upside potential of 35%. Yield 2.04% (Analysts’ price target is $181.95)

BUY
Thinks they have a bright future and the 5G revolution has just begun. Has valuable patents. Trades at an inexpensive multiple at 16x earnings. A discount to the market. A buyer here.
