Qualcomm: Don't Overreact

By -
Qualcomm is down over 8% on disappointing FQ1 guidance.
Apple remains the main thorn in their financials impacting the comparisons until the license dispute is resolved.
Business remains solid, with EPS targets rising even without ~$1.7 billion in high-margin license revenue.
The net payout yield is set to reach 35% make a very bullish buy signal.
The perplexing story of Qualcomm (QCOM) was further evident by the reaction to a large FQ4 earnings beat. After massive stock buybacks and with 5G on the horizon, now isn't the time to abandon ship just because Apple(AAPL) continues playing hardball. My long-term investment thesis remains solid.

Update 11/15
Interesting upgrade from a Sell by Morgan Stanley. Don't agree that Apple won't be resolved in 2019, but the stock is clearly a buy at $55.

"We see a balanced risk/reward as the market now has more realistic assumptions around Apple, chip margin improvements and handset demand," says analyst James Faucette and team, which boosted its rating to Equal Weight from Underweight. But a possible resolution of the Apple dispute seems unlikely in 2019, and 5G networks won't be widely available until 2020. (h/t Bloomberg)

Aurora Cannabis: Deal Or No Deal

By -
Aurora Cannabis was left out of the major deal making in 2018. The cannabis company updated FQ2 guidance to revenues of $50 to $55 million with a continued focus on pure production growth. The stock is down as the market is becoming less impressed with commodity farming operations due to the prime Oregon example. The stock is below key resistance at $5.40 as medical cannabis patient totals failed to impress. As the end of 2018 came and went,   Aurora Cannabis   ( ACB ) was a notable absentee from the deal making in the cannabis market. Just about all of the other major Canadian cannabis players got large investments or signed up powerful partnerships, but the related stocks didn't generally maintain rallies following the deals. Based on the early legalization data in Canada and Oregon, the best option for Aurora Cannabis might actually be selling production capacity while the Canadian market remains hot.

The Deutsche Bank analyst call on the meeting suggests the company still isn't ready to produce actual numbers from the generative AI demand.  C3.ai ( NYSE: AI ) shares  fell more than 8%  on Friday after investment firm Deutsche Bank reiterated its sell rating on the enterprise software company after it held its investor meeting. Analyst Brad Zelnick said the event "left a lot to be desired" as there were  no details on financials, "limited" updates on the company's operations and investors did not really attend the event, despite it being positioned as for them. "While we appreciate the vast opportunity presented by AI, the event did nothing to ease our skepticism on the true differentiation of the company's platform, its traction with custome
