Qualcomm to wait until after election to decide Intel move, Bloomberg reports

Qualcomm (QCOM) is likely to wait until after the U.S presidential election in November before deciding whether to pursue an offer to buy Intel (INTC), Bloomberg’s Ryan Gould, Gillian Tan, and Michelle Davis report, citing people familiar with the matter. Qualcomm seeks greater clarity on the new occupant of the White House before deciding its next move because of the impact any future administration would have on the antitrust landscape and America’s relationship with China, according to the people, who asked not to be identified discussing confidential information.
