What Changed In Marvell's Story?

Marvell Technology (MRVL) stock returned 201% in the past year, against 17.7% for the S&P 500. Investors value it as an AI data center chip company at 85.6 times earnings, versus 22.1 for the S&P 500. Investors paying that multiple are counting on data center growth staying fast. Management used to tell a second growth story too, and it no longer leads with that story. So what did Marvell's management stop leading with.

What Is The Case For Waiting On Qualcomm Stock?

Qualcomm (QCOM) stock is up 46% over six months. It still trades about 26% below its high of the past year. At 21 times earnings, about the market's level, the price appears to assume Qualcomm keeps growing as Apple sales shrink. Qualcomm plans to fill that gap with car and data center chips, and is raising prices as memory costs climb. Both plans are under way. So is there a case for waiting before you buy Qualcomm.
