BroadcomAVGOBUYJan 02, 2026Stock price when the opinion was issued
As of Jul 02, 2026. Market Open.
Tried to corner the market by introducing some products that were not as open source, and the market pushed back. That's why it hasn't been able to accelerate its networking business as much as expected. Earnings disappointed. They'll turn it around, more to come on networking. Interesting on this pullback.
She owns players with more upside.
AVGO is like the smaller cousin of NVDA. Built GOOG's AI program, increasingly making waves with Anthropic (owns Claude). Interesting, but not a shoot-the-lights-out opportunity. He'd buy.
MRVL is trying to take a share of the chips that go into GOOG, and is already involved with AMZN cloud. Be careful. It's not a given that it's a capable designer of cutting-edge chips. Coin flip. We've been fooled before.
NVDA is actually more interesting than both.
A young investor has lots of time ahead. High-risk and volatile choices are acceptable as we move down the AI highway, as long as the investor is OK with the risk. So GOOG and AVGO are great. Let this investor run -- he's having fun and doing well, so let them stay invested.
GE is also good. HON is a bit more of a neutral conversation, but has its own turnaround coming through.
