$20 billion buyback and dividend hike power Qualcomm confidence amid smartphone headwinds
Qualcomm announced a $20 billion stock repurchase program and increased annual dividend to $3.68, signaling confidence despite smartphone market challenges. The stock is trading at $133.32 in pre-market, down 1.75%, reflecting broader semiconductor sector weakness. Diversification into automotive and AI sectors provides growth offset to declining handset revenues.
