NOK on the way up! Go long now!This is one of my first publishing’s. I’d love some critiques. I had a tough time understanding where to start my wave pattern. I do think NOK is heading up soon considering it’s 5G tech coming soon. They’ve had some recent good news and. NASA contract in the recent past so NOK is far from dead. On the contrary, I think it’s just beginning. Please let me know your thoughts. I’m open and welcome to CONSTRUCTIVE criticism only.
Qualcomm (QCOM): A Fundamental and Technical AnalysisIn this post, I’ll be providing my own analysis on Qualcomm (QCOM), shedding light on the fundamental and technical aspect of the stock.
What is Qualcomm?
Qualcomm (QCOM) is short for ‘Quality Communications’.
The American company was established by a communications engineer, Irwin Jacobs.
It’s a company that focuses on semiconductors, software, and wireless technology services.
Business Model
- Qualcomm is divided into two main businesses: QCT, and QTL
QCT
- QCT (Qualcomm CDMA Technologies) develops and supplies integrated circuits and system software
- Specifically, it develops and supplies systems and software used in mobile devices, wireless internet, communications devices, internet of things, and semiconductors used for vehicle infotainments.
- The smartphone AP is a core device that controls the OS, CPU, memory, audio, and the camera
- Qualcomm currently covers 50% of the market share for mobile device APs, and dominates 88% of the 5g Smartphone AP market.
- They are way ahead of their counterparts in both market share and technology.
- Qualcomm also offers a cloud service for vehicles, allowing wireless updates to take place
- They have also developed an autonomous driving solution chip called Snapdragon Driving.
- We will see cars that use this chip in 2023
- The RF Solution, a wireless network that allows signals to be identified without confusion, is also increasing in demand
- QCT covers 75% of the company’s revenue.
QTL
- QTL (Qualcomm Technology Licensing) grants licenses and rights to use intellectual property to others.
- Qualcomm possesses patents on CDMA, LTE, 5g, video and audio codec, WIFI, GPS, NFC and Bluetooth.
- QTL covers 23% of the company’s revenue
Financials
- Despite the numbers not being anything extraordinary, Qualcomm has reported a consistent increase in yoy revenue
- Especially in the case of Q3 2020, we have seen revenue and earnings skyrocket.
- The firm’s Q1 earnings was $468m, $845m in Q2, and $2.96b in Q3
- Along with this, their EPS has also skyrocketed, and analysts estimate a an EPS of $2.07 for Q4
- Qualcomm has not been profitable for the past few years due to their heavy investment in research and development
- While a lot was invested in R&D, the commercialization of proprietary 5g technology could bring immense profits to the company in the near future
Technical Analysis
- The daily chart shows a clear uptrend, with prices creating higher lows and higher highs
- Prices are trading within an ascending parallel channel, having been rejected by the top trend line resistance
- There are two major gap supports at $100, and $140
- The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) demonstrates diminishing bullish momentum, with decreasing histograms
- Nevertheless, as prices trade above the Ichimoku cloud and the 60 Simple Moving Average (SMA), the overall trend is very bullish
Summary
In conclusion, Qualcomm is a company that has a proven, solid business model. Their heavy investment in research and development is finally seeing light as the company turns increasingly profitable. Technical analysis also demonstrates immense bullish momentum behind the stock’s price.

II-VI Fails Support Line of Trend: Outlier or meaningful?IIVI was cited as a LONG with a strong upward trend in its trading channel, but it has since failed the support line of that channel.
For this trader at least, that represented a partial-exit from the position.
That is not advice, but the decision was made to shorten my position on II-VI even as it has only descended a still-significant 1.59% on the trading day (MON).
If II-VI returns to the channel within a trading day or two, this could just be an outlier and not statistically significant: The relation would be to the overall downward trend of the S&P 500 itself, which suffered a miserable Monday and is showing some signs of further weakening, even.
This is not just to sound some doom alarm, but the overall buyer confidence throughout most market sectors is low, even with IIVI playing a massive role in Apple's 5g networks. The strength of this stock longer-term could still be immense, but it just failed the support line.
Happy trading.
-BDR
Post Note: 3 links to previous Ideas Re: II-VI present here.
$IIVI II-VI Proving Stronger than Anticpated, Even$IIVI has been on the rise since the News it would function largely in the production of Apple 5g. A previous LONG was called while still <41 / s, and it is now hovering near 45/s. That said, an entry at this point for a mega-long still makes plenty of sense.
The adjusted trend lines show the (perfect) entry and exit points within the last month: The green trend should provide some guidance again if it breaks the NEW-upper resistance-point.
See related Idea from OCT 2nd for additional info Re: II-VI.
What we are watching now is to see if it begins some sideways trading action as it reaches a mid-point of the (more-narrow) new green channel.
There is a sense this could reach another level/equilibrium point which really only does one thing: leaves open a massive buy-window before the next rise. Presumably so, at least.
Verizon - 5G
NOTES
Verizon has surprisingly tanked after the new 5G announcement that came-out, overall, it wasn't too surprising. We're without a doubt in short term bearish sentiment for the stock. However this sentiment appears to be coming after a very decent impulse wave rally (not the traditional pattern, appears to be a Moving Ending Diagonal Impulse with converging lines) Short term, we may see a rally around 1.5% strong from Friday's close of 58.05. This is likely to be sold off down to the 0.312 fib retrace of the longer-term impulse wave we're tracking. After this, it's a whole new set of impulse waves on VZ
Likely Scenario: Timeline 3-4 Weeks
1 - VZ rises from 58.05 to the upper $58-$59 range and is rejected.
2 - VZ continues this rejection from that upper range down to the upper to mid $56 range
3 - VZ breaks out of the short term bearish descending channel we see now and begins to hit new ATH's.
Alternate Scenario: Timeline 1-2 Weeks
1 - VZ rises from 58.05 to the upper $58-$59 range and breaks through.
2 - VZ continues this breakthrough through the short term downward bearish channel we see now, and starts it's new impulse wave to new ATH's earlier then expected.
Key Takeaways
Both scenarios end in bullish long-term action estimated timeline for the breakout is within the next month overall. Currently eyeing 6 month long $60 call contracts, not that expensive.
Nasdaq Reasserts Itself vs. the Russell 2000One common pattern this year has been sporadic rallies in the Russell 2000 , followed by longer periods of malaise. We saw it in June, early August and again in the last 1-2 weeks. Each time, it’s been followed by a shift back to Big Tech, Growth and the Nasdaq-100.
The same process seems to be happening right now. This chart shows our Smart Relative Strength indicator, comparing the Nasdaq-100 to the S&P 500 with a 21-day interval. Notice how it started turning positive last week and has continued since.
There are some other bullish signs for the Nasdaq. One is the bounce around 10,800. This was an important consolidation zone in July following a large engulfing candle.
Another potentially bullish sign is the way prices snapped back above the 50-day simple moving average (SMA) on September 28. It’s held that line since amid some retests below. NDX also held the 21-day exponential moving average (EMA).
Finally, MACD is now rising.
The Nasdaq didn’t have a lot of catalysts in September, and its heavy price action reflected that. Now with Apple ’s product launch and Amazon Prime Day tomorrow, price action is starting to perk up.

Nokia continues receiving 5G contracts.
On the Daily Chart, the 50-Day MA is ready to Cross up and over the 200-Day MA, Bullish
I think NOK has a shot at reversing its downward trend real soon especially if the USA takes an ownership in the company like many White House officials have been talking about possibly doing to stop China.
Long!

WHY QCOM??
Qualcomm pushes 5G tech into chips for cheaper phones
June 16 (Reuters) - Qualcomm Inc on Tuesday said it is putting 5G technology into chips for smartphones that will sell for as little as $300 and that will come to market in the second half of this year.
San Diego-based Qualcomm is the biggest supplier of processors for smartphones and the modem chips that connect the phones to wireless data networks.
The company's chips featuring fifth-generation (5G) cellular telecommunications technology are currently in many premium-priced smartphones such as Samsung Electronics Co Ltd's Galaxy devices.
But Qualcomm has also been working to get the technology into cheaper devices. The new chip, called the Snapdragon 690, will go into devices that it expects to retail at $300 to $500, Qualcomm said. Phone makers such as HMD Global, the owner of the Nokia phone brand, LG Electronics Inc and Lenovo Group Ltd's Motorola plan to use the chips, Qualcomm said.
The push into lower price points means higher volumes for Qualcomm. According to data from Counterpoint Research, smartphones with wholesales prices of $100 to $400, which are somewhat lower than the prices consumers pay, made up about 50% of the overall smartphone market in the first quarter of 2020.
Under-the-Radar Surge in EricssonThe S&P 500 is having its worst drop since mid-March. On days like today it can be useful to scan for stocks under accumulation before the selling hit. One of those is Ericsson.
ERIC started running last month after President Trump moved against Huawei. Analysts see that helping the Swedish telecom supplier gain market share in U.S. 5G networks.
ERIC was trapped at its 200-day simple moving average (SMA) before the story hit. It then broke out and ran to an 11-month high before rolling over.
The rally was interesting because it wasn’t anything like the dead-cat bounces in other parts of the market. ERIC was basing out before the pandemic and then fell much less when lockdowns began. It’s now above old resistance, while airlines and hotels are below resistance.
ERIC’s 50-day SMA also rose above the 200-day SMA this week. That kind of “Golden Cross” is also consistent with a longer-term turnaround.
The current price level in ERIC isn’t hugely attractive. Given today’s large bearish candle, there could still be follow-through pressure in coming sessions. A retest toward $8.50, near the 50-day SMA, could also be in the cards.
In conclusion, technical analysis can often be a good way of doing fundamental analysis. Right now, the chart in ERIC is showing signs of a more significant turnaround. It could be a name to watch as the market chops around in the next week or so.
My AT&T RunThere's an incredible amount of investors I've followed that are very pleased with VZ stock's performance during the past years. Fundamentally speaking, yes, indeed Verizon has a cleaner balance sheet, way less debt, and it has done a really good job at being a decent rival for AT&T within America. However, I have strong reasons to believe that AT&T is not a fundamental play. What do I mean by this? We live in 2020, and for the past 20 years, the market leaders are those who innovate, but also those who keep innovating the fastest. Back when the internet wasn't our god, companies didn't have as much pressure for innovation since information itself couldn't even be shared massively and at the speed, it is done now. So back when Buffet was buying shares, earnings would most likely be given back to the shareholders rather than being reinvested in an asset so intangible like research&design. And in no way, I am shitting on Buffet's strategy, he's a billionaire for a reason. But what if I don't want to wait 50 years, or better yet, what if we aren't as lucky as he was were he has been able to purchase stocks during 3 major economic recessions?
AT&T isn't a fundamental play because its true value can't be pinned down to a balance sheet. AT&T is set to be the face of 5G here in the west, competing against Huawei, who in my opinion, already one the first few rounds. The US Government made the announcement that Hong Kong is no longer independent from China. The US is also legally fighting Canada for the extradition of Huawei's Chief Financial Officer. So why would the US make a global announcement that just empowered hundreds of Chinese investors, including the government? Isn't all the mainstream media telling you that there's a trade war? Would you even know that the trade war began because of the 5G race? Anyways, all I am trying to say is that AT&T will be the leader of 5G here in the west, regardless of how much debt with have, and if you cannot see the value in that, then I don't think you understand how powerful 5G actually is.
Another intrinsic value that I see is that AT&T owns WarnerMedia. Can you see the power of being the largest cellphone provider as well as one of the largest media providers? It seems too good to be true. Data recollection through cellphones in order to produce specific content based on that very same data. Disney owns literally every media company out there, so I guess I also see the value in being independent of them.
What will my strategy be like? Based on the shorter time frames, I believe there will be another price dip, and when that occurs I will enter my position. I plan on buying shares for my retirement portfolio, as well as for my trading account. Even though I will be holding for the long run, it's still a nice stock to trade around. (Aiming to buy at 28$ )
FIVG will reach USD 25 or even USD 24?Looks like FIVG is going to the 24-25 price range... As an ETF that tracks 5G related stocks, on the long term should be a great investment. A good entry point soon? What do you think?
