What the numbers say

Qualcomm is a semiconductors name in the information technology sector. Over the past year it returned +9.3%, against -0.7% over three months and +7.2% over one. It trades 7.7% above its 200-day average, so the longer trend is confirming recent strength. Annualized volatility of 54.4% is very high, position sizing matters more here than the ranking does.

Its worst peak-to-trough decline over the year was -41.0%, and it has traded a median $1.9B a day, the figure that decides whether a position can actually be entered and exited at posted prices. Its daily moves correlate 0.51 with the S&P 500 proxy, so it follows the index loosely.
