QRVO Forecast



BearishBullish



80% Confidence




Bullish Case: QRVO's +23% monthly run to $118.06 reflects real momentum: call volume is 84% above puts, bullish risk outweighs bearish by 42%, and the Helium/Market PDFs concentrate mass at $105–115 with upside tails to $125–130. Backwardated term structure (66% Sept vs ~43% Feb) typically compresses post-event, letting an overbought stock grind higher while near-dated options decay, aided by falling yields and chip-sector tailwinds.




Bearish Case: The rally has outrun fundamentals: DCF fair value ~$86, analyst consensus $91.46 (targets $66–$120), and 41% customer concentration with Apple/Samsung insourcing threaten the addressable market. A -13% weekly gap shows fragility. Steep short-dated put IV (91–111% on 9/18 puts) and the backwardated curve signal the market still prices sharp downside; 12th-percentile liquidity amplifies gap risk toward $100–105.




Potential Outcomes:
  1. 35% Consolidation $108–122: momentum stalls; backwardated IV compresses, price mean-reverts toward $110 (Helium PDF mode ~110).
  2. 30% Continued rally +8–15% to $127–135 on GaN/defense orders and sector strength; call-heavy tape (11/20 125C, delta 0.45, top volume) supports this.
  3. 22% Pullback −8–15% to $100–108 as valuation premium (~25% over DCF) and insourcing headlines bite.
  4. 8% Sharp −20%+ gap on customer/supply shock (deep-put IV ridge implies tail).
  5. 5% >+20% breakout above $140 on blowout guidance (11/20 170C tail interest).
