ConocoPhillips (COP) and Exxon Mobil (XOM) also rose.- Coinbase (COIN) shares rose after Goldman Sachs upgraded the stock, while EToro Group shares fell after it was downgraded as analyst James Yaro sees more growth from crypto infrastructure and prediction markets rather than crypto trading.- Qualcomm (QCOM) the biggest maker of mobile phone chips, said it’s extending a push into the market for processors that are the heart of personal computers. Its new X2 Plus processor is a scaled-back version of existing offerings designed to be the main component of more affordable notebook computers. Qualcomm is offering two versions, one with 10 computer cores and one with six, the chipmaker said Monday in a statement. Those cores are the newer Oryon third-generation design. Among their biggest selling points, according to Qualcomm, is the inclusion of a powerful neural processing unit, or NPU, that’ll speed up the responsiveness of AI software without rapidly depleting the battery. Shares of the company traded higher. See omnystudio.com/listener for privacy information.
