Qualcomm rejects Broadcom's $103B takeover proposal

Bad move by Qualcomm. Now is the best time to cash out. Apple, Samsung and LG have been working on their own chips, and will have no need to go through Qualcomm in the next 1-2 years. Seems like ego is getting in the way of the solid decision making

Qualcomm just released a server chip, broaching a new market for them. And that chip is a serious pain in the ass for Intel. Why would they want to be bought by Avago, which itself divested of Broadcom’s Arm server effort earlier (which recently launched as well anyway!)

I think they are probably going to mess up with the new chips like they did with their OS and Qualcomm will be back up in sometime.
