Analysts anticipate continued growth due to escalating demand for AI infrastructure. Broadcom’s accelerator chips (XPUs) are gaining traction as cost-effective alternatives to GPUs. Cantor Fitzgerald projects significant revenue from custom silicon, potentially exceeding $40 billion by 2027. Stock has climbed 30% YTD. AI revenue reached $4.4 billion in Q2, and the VMware acquisition further strengthens Broadcom’s position.
