Qualcomms Q1 Outlook Surpasses Estimates on Strong Chinese Smartphone Demand and AI Growth

Due to the rise in Chinese smartphone releases and consumer demand for AIpowered products, Qualcomm has an optimistic prediction for the next fiscal quarter that is higher than Wall Street had predicted. Over analyst projections, the corporation projects adjusted earnings of $2.95 per share and revenues of $10.90 billion. Qualcomms semiconductor business, anticipated to generate $9.3 billion in revenue, is expected to contribute substantially. Qualcomms high demand in China is helping it, but it faces longterm uncertainty because of Apples move to create its modem chips and ongoing legal issues with Arm over licensing. Nevertheless, Qualcomms position is strengthened by its diversification into AI and data centres and the signing of new contracts, such as with Transsion Holdings. Read More..

South Korea Warns of Increased U.S. Tariffs, Plans to Boost Investments to Offset Impact

Cheong Inkyo, South Koreas trade minister, warned that further U.S. tariffs under a second Trump administration may force South Korean businesses to boost their U.S. investments to counteract the effects. Higher tariffs, Cheong said, might speed up onsite production and direct investment, particularly in the automobile industry, which is already seeing investments from the United States. With a 200% tax on some imported autos and a 10%–20% blanket duty on imports, Trumps planned tariffs may cost South Koreas economy up to $44.8 billion in export revenue, mostly hurting automakers. Though its economic relations with the U.S. are anticipated to be steady despite possible changes, South Korea is willing to participate in trade diplomacy in response. Read More..

China now carries a 26.8% weight on the MSCI Global Standard Index, but with the recent inclusion of five Indian businesses, the countrys weight will increase to a record 19.8% from 19.3%. The index now has 156 Indian stocks overall, thanks to the addition of Voltas, Oberoi Realty, BSE, Kalyan Jewellers, and Alkem Laboratories. This change suggests that more Indian stocks may be included, even though they comprise a quarter of Chinas 598 stocks. The adjustment, which takes effect after markets close on November 25, is anticipated to draw $2.5 billion in passive inflows into Indias equities markets. HDFC Bank, the highestweighted Indian company at 7.08%, also witnessed an uptick in weighting in the MSCI rebalance. Read More..

WhatsApp Tests Reverse Image Search to Combat Misinformation in Android Beta

For Android beta users, WhatsApp is developing a reverse image search function to reduce disinformation by facilitating speedy picture verification. The WhatsApp beta version 2.24.23.13 has this capability, which enables users to search the web straight from the app to find similar or identical photographs, assisting in detecting manipulated or deceptive graphics. Without WhatsApp or Meta saving or viewing the pictures, users may confirm the authenticity of images by tapping "Search on web" in the media viewer and using Googles reverse image search. WhatsApp intends to make this feature broadly accessible, perhaps streamlining picture verification and reducing disseminating false information on the network. It is now only available as a serverside deployment for a limited number of beta users. Read More..
