Predicted vs. what happened
What happened
Reached its target in 77 days.
The thesis — published August 11, 2025
Qualcomm's stock fell and now looks tired on the downside, which can set up a rebound. Sentiment stays upbeat, and trading has remained active. Hopes for lower interest rates help chipmakers even as China news weighs on some peers. We plan to start near the lower price area and add only if price strength returns. Over the next 3 months, edge AI, PC, and auto efforts could help shares move back toward earlier highs.
Primary drivers
- Pulled back too far but investor mood stays positive, hinting at a bounce
- New edge AI, PC, and auto products could boost demand and revenue
- Chip sector is helped by hopes for interest rate cuts later this year
- Active trading interest remains strong even after recent price softness
