Shares of QCOM.O declined sharply today, hitting a 20-day low as investor sentiment soured. The stock's technical breakdown signals increased bearish momentum, coinciding with broader market concerns over AI-related valuations. Recent collaborations, including Qualcomm's support for a Saudi data center project with xAI and Nvidia, highlight its strategic role in the AI sector, yet ongoing antitrust investigations into Arm Holdings may be weighing heavily on investor confidence. Additionally, Qualcomm's allegations against Arm regarding restrictive licensing practices could further complicate its competitive landscape.
