Qualcomm looks cheap against its earnings, trading at 16x versus the roughly 38x chipmakers usually get. Applying 38x to next year's expected $10.26 a share, give or take 12%, puts fair value at $343.26-$436.87, so the $162.71 stock sits 53% below the low end. The view leans on forecasts, with forward earnings 40% above trailing, and is a valuation screen only, without fundamental work. x.com
