Qualcomm: Stock Is Now Exposed To The AI Theme (Rating Upgrade)
QCOM
Published: October 28, 2025 by: Seeking Alpha
Sentiment: Positive

I strongly believe the October 27 launch of AI200/AI250 rack-scale inference systems is the inflection point, putting an AI stamp on Qualcomm and helping offset potential Apple modem revenue erosion. Targeting inference (not training) mirrors Broadcom's custom-chip playbook. From a timeline perspective, the AI200 will ship in 2026, AI250 in 2027, well placed for rising inference demand. Key risk remains Apple's modem in-sourcing. The CFO flagged lower Apple contribution, with FQ4 guide $10.3B–$11.1B (QCT $9.0B–$9.6B). I'd watch QCT closely.
