This week's news centers on Broadcom's AI chip trajectory and the market's reaction to it. Shares fell over 4% following a $21.7 billion AI semiconductor revenue forecast that met slowdown fears, and dropped a further 3.2% as a broader debate over AI development pace weighed on semiconductor stocks, with mentions of ongoing scrutiny over valuation, earnings outlook and regulatory issues tied to the VMware acquisition. CEO Hock Tan defended fiscal 2027 and 2028 AI semiconductor revenue targets of $115 billion and $230 billion respectively amid this investor anxiety. Separately, Broadcom repurchased its Irvine research campus for $325 million, and commentary pieces compared its growth trajectory to Applied Materials and framed its custom chip partnerships, including with Google, as a counterpoint to Nvidia's position.
