Qualcomm beats Q4 earnings but issues weak Q1 guidance, chip stocks fall amid data center fears.

Qualcomm reported slightly better-than-expected Q4 earnings but issued cautious guidance for Q1, projecting adjusted earnings below analyst estimates and revenue in line with expectations. The company's handset chip sales dropped 26%, missing estimates due to supply constraints despite price hikes. This weak outlook contributed to a 9% drop in Qualcomm's stock and a broader decline in chip stocks amid concerns over a potential slowdown in data center demand and rising memory costs. The situation highlights ongoing challenges in the semiconductor industry, with supply issues and regulatory fears impacting investor sentiment.

Qualcomm shares continue to face pressure, trading down 10.07% at USD 155.75 on Pluang. The stock's market cap stands at $184.94 billion, with a high sell order activity of 62%. These figures are current as of Nov 05, 2026 22:31 WIB.
