Qualcomm stock edges higher in thin year-end trade as Fed minutes land — what to watch next

Qualcomm stock edges up as Fed minutes hit; QCOM eyes Feb. 4 earnings call

NEW YORK, December 30, 2025, 15:14 ET — Regular session Qualcomm (QCOM.O) shares were up about 0.2% at $173.75 in afternoon trading on Tuesday, hovering near Monday’s close as markets digested new details on the U.S. interest-rate outlook.

In year-end trading, the rate narrative can outweigh company-specific headlines. Minutes from the Federal Reserve’s Dec. 9-10 meeting — the detailed account of policymakers’ debate — showed officials split even after approving a quarter-point, or 0.25 percentage point,
