This means that Qualcomm will play a major role in the growth market of autonomous driving and connected mobility.
Qualcomm (ISIN: US7475251036) has announced the acquisition of the Israeli company Autotalks. Autotalks specializes in vehicle-to-everything (V2X) communication and develops chips that enable communication between vehicles and their surroundings. This technology is crucial for the safety and efficiency of vehicles, especially with regard to autonomous driving and connected mobility. The acquisition is estimated to be worth around USD 350-400 million. Qualcomm plans to integrate Autotalks' V2X solutions into its Snapdragon Digital Chassis, a platform that provides car manufacturers with cloud-based solutions for infotainment, driver assistance systems and vehicle connectivity. This strategic decision underscores Qualcomm's commitment to the automotive sector. With the integration of Autotalks' technologies, Qualcomm can strengthen its position in the field of vehicle communication and benefit from the increasing demand for connected car solutions. The acquisition is subject to regulatory approvals.
From a technical chart perspective, Qualcomm is part of a completely intact upward trend. However, the share has entered a correction in the form of a downward trend in the short to medium term. Qualcomm is currently on the verge of breaking out of this correction. This would trigger an overarching (upward) trend continuation signal. If the share rises above USD 157, the next price targets are USD 195, followed by USD 230 and USD 300. If, on the other hand, Qualcomm falls below USD 135, the next correction targets are USD 122 and USD 100. The slow stochastic signals a massive oversold condition and supports the turnaround scenario in the big picture. The MACD histogram as a trend-following indicator is also on the verge of stabilization.
Preferred scenario: long entry above USD 157. Hedge below USD 135.
