Qualcomm (QCOM) released a promising Q4 report, with earnings and revenue numbers surpassing expectations, leading to a generally upbeat forecast. Despite a blip caused by a large tax hit, company performance remains strong. The firm faces growth opportunities, predominantly through expansion into artificial intelligence (AI), with their data center being hailed as a 'multibillion-dollar opportunity.' Leveraging this, they recently launched AI chips, aiming to compete with industry giants like AMD and NVIDIA. Their AI strategy, in reality, raises concerns despite its potential. Nevertheless, Qualcomm remains a favorite of Wall Street, even as the market wavers. Financial institutions are on the move, with several increasing, lowering, or retreating stake in the company. In contrast, Qualcomm's deal with Arduino gives the tech giant an entry into a new space. Yet, their relationship with Samsung has weakened, and Apple's move to in-house modems could place additional pressure on them. Acknowledging the 'noise,' Qualcomm continues to focus on exploiting the AI opportunity and reaffirmed its commitment towards a solid Q1 2026. While analysts remain neutral, it is believed that Qualcomm's stock price is expected to rise.
