QUALCOMM Incorporated (NASDAQ:QCOM): According to Sterne Agee, semiconducter makers could report low Q2 results, but the firm believes that weakness within some key handset suppliers like Qualcomm, RF Micro Devices (NASDAQ:RFMD), and Avago (NASDAQ:AVGO) will create buying opportunity. Also, the firm shows favor toward  SanDisk (NASDAQ:SNDK) and Applied Micro Circuits (NASDAQ:AMCC) going into results for Q2, but remains cautious regarding Texas Instruments (NYSE:TXN) and Analog Devices (NYSE:ADI) because of valuations. Sterne Agee also states that  Intel (NASDAQ:INTC) faces headwinds into 2H12 because of the Windows 8 transition. The firm keeps a Neutral rating on the stock.
