Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) has emerged as a prominent player among the AI Stocks Currently Making Waves. As of October 8, Bernstein SocGen Group analyst Stacy Rasgon maintained an Outperform rating on the shares, setting a target price of $400.00.
Per the firm’s insights, Broadcom’s Q3 performance was commendable, with both semiconductors and software surpassing expectations. Although non-AI semiconductor markets are slowly recovering, AI semiconductor revenues reached an impressive $5.2 billion.
Additionally, feedback from a recent virtual discussion with Broadcom’s CEO and CFO indicated that demand for computing resources remains strong, and the $90 billion target for 2030 appears “easily achievable”.
“Insights gained from a virtual meeting with the CEO and CFO highlighted the sustained vigor in compute demand, especially as hyperscalers and leading LLM (Large Language Model) developers face an increasingly urgent need for computing power. The recent collaborations between NVDA, AMD, and OpenAI are thus not unexpected. There’s strong confidence in hitting growth targets, with the $90 billion goal for 2030 deemed ‘easily’ attainable based on current engagements with just four customers, and a plausible estimate of $120 billion from them as well.”
“Looking ahead, Hock reaffirmed his confidence regarding a projected $10 billion in revenue from OpenAI by Q3 2026 and indicated that further orders are highly likely. AVGO (Outperform, $400 Price Target): The path to robust AI growth in 2025 is expected to gain momentum into 2026, driven by strong software performance, effective cash deployment, and impressive margins and free cash flow.”
Broadcom stands out as a tech entity uniquely placed in the AI landscape, largely due to its tailored chip solutions and networking capabilities.
