What’s the opportunity in QUALCOMM?
According to my valuation model, the stock is currently fairly valued at the moment, trading at US$58.82 compared to my intrinsic value of US$57.24. However, since Solvay’s share price is quite volatile, this could mean it can sink lower (or rise even further) in the future, giving us another chance to invest. This is based on its high beta, which is a good indicator for how much the stock moves relative to the rest of the market.
