Qualcomm (QCOM)

The more I look into Qualcomm, the less I like it.
There are many risks to the future profitability of the company including regulatory scrutiny, customer pushback, intellectual property enforcement, as well as an arms race for the development of future 5G technologies.

I would not put money to work today in QCOM and would prefer to invest in better chip manufactures such as Micron.
