  • Broadcom Stock Hits Historic Buy Opportunity Amid AI Growth Forecast
    June 8, 2026, 5:11 PM EDT. Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) reported strong Q2 fiscal 2026 results with revenue up 48% year-over-year to $22.2 billion and AI semiconductor revenue soaring 143% to $10.8 billion. Despite this, shares dropped 20% from recent highs, trading near $398. Mizuho analysts forecast a surge in tensor processing unit (TPU) sales, projecting over 35 million units by 2028, driven by hyperscaler demand and OpenAI's expansion. This could generate $300 billion in revenue from Google-related TPU work alone. Broadcom's AI revenue is expected to climb from $56 billion in FY 2026 to $170 billion in FY 2028. The pullback is seen as a significant buying opportunity given the firm's strong AI semiconductor position and custom silicon momentum.
