AI chip revenue surge and buyback program drive bullish sentiment this week

Broadcom expanded its leadership in AI and semiconductors this week, reporting a 106% year-over-year surge in AI chip revenue for fiscal Q1 2026 and securing multi-year partnerships with Google, Meta, and Anthropic. The company deepened its relationship with Google Cloud, extending their AI chip agreement through 2029 and powering additional services. Broadcom also authorized a new $10 billion share buyback program through 2026 and paid $3.1 billion in dividends in Q1. These initiatives reinforce strong demand for its AI infrastructure and commitment to shareholder returns.

Overbought technical signals rise as weekly bullish trend persists

On the weekly chart, AVGO continues to trade significantly above its MA-20 ($343.80), MA-50 ($325.41), and MA-200 ($168.87), maintaining a robust bullish structure. The MA-50 is the nearest dynamic support, as the Ichimoku Kijun is too far below to provide immediate impact. Major support for the week lies near $389.80, while resistance is seen above $412.15. The weekly RSI remains constructive within bullish territory, but overbought signals from the Bull/Bear Power and Commodity Channel Index, a neutral Awesome Oscillator, and a strong sell from the Stochastic RSI reflect mounting exhaustion. MACD and ADX on the W1 still favor buyers, and weekly volatility is elevated at 8.70%.

Range-bound outlook as bullish momentum and support levels shape direction

For the next 5 trading days, AVGO is likely to consolidate within a range of $389.80 to $412.15. Momentum remains supportive, and with 3 out of 4 key indicators showing bullish signals, there is a 75% probability of upward movement. The baseline scenario is price stabilization and consolidation within this range. A bullish scenario would see a rebound from support with a move above $412.15, risking a push to new highs, while a break below $389.80 would increase the risk of a deeper short-term pullback.

Parshwa Turakhiya, analyst, sees Broadcom’s price dip this week as a healthy pause within a strong long-term uptrend. The asset’s consistent trading above all major weekly moving averages and positive AI news continue to support constructive sentiment, even amid short-term exhaustion signals. He notes ongoing demand from marquee partnerships and aggressive capital returns, but also observes overbought technical indicators that suggest buyers may need to catch their breath. For the week ahead, he expects price stabilization between $389.80 and $412.15, with a potential upward bias given three out of four bullish signals. "As long as AVGO holds above $389.80, I’m watching for a momentum refresh and possible push toward new highs if resistance breaks."

Earlier, analysts noted that Broadcom exhibited sustained bullish momentum, supported by growing AI partnerships and robust earnings. This outlook is reinforced by the company's fresh record AI chip revenue and expanded long-term agreements, but with signs of technical exhaustion emerging, traders should monitor for potential volatility as AVGO approaches key support at $389.80.
