Shares of QUALCOMM, Inc. (NASDAQ:QCOM) are on the verge of a major breakout. There is an inverse head and shoulder pattern in play. Price is right up against the neck-line, the breakout point. If price can push over $52.30, it should engage, sending the stock close to $57.00. See the stock chart below. Gareth Soloway InTheMoneyStocks

I think this fight with Apple is a little phoney - both companies need each other and rumour has it they will come to a deal. The major issue is not the chips themselves, which are the best around, but the royalties Apple has to pay to use QCOMs patented technology.
This stock is all over the place just now! Seems like nobody really knows what is going to happen in the short term?
As mentioned on another thread, there is buyout talk surrounding this one. Not sure whether there is too much upside especially with all of the uncertainty surrounding the company
