Apple chip deal renewal strengthens Broadcom demand and revenue outlook

Broadcom has extended its multi-year chip supply agreement with Apple through 2031, under which the company will design and provide custom ASIC and RF chips for future generations of Apple products. This confirmed corporate action establishes a secure, long-term revenue stream and highlights Broadcom's integral role in supplying critical components for Apple's hardware ecosystem, which increases the visibility of future earnings potential. According to Tradingkey, Finance Yahoo, and Rttnews, this development has been the main driver of increased demand for Broadcom shares today.

Technical divergence emerges as short-term momentum weakens

On the hourly timeframe, AVGO is trading above both its 20-period and 50-period moving averages, while the daily chart shows the stock above its 200-period moving average. The Ichimoku Kijun level at $368.03 offers immediate support. The Moving Average Convergence Divergence (MACD) currently signals a Sell, and the Average Directional Index (ADX) is Neutral, reflecting a loss of bullish momentum. The Relative Strength Index (RSI) stands at 34.36, indicating a Sell signal, while the Commodity Channel Index (CCI) and Bull/Bear Power (BBP) are both in oversold territory. Stochastic RSI, however, signals a strong potential for a near-term rebound. This divergence among oscillators points to indecision, as recent price action has gravitated toward the session's low with generally low intraday volatility.

Range-bound consolidation favored unless clear breakout occurs

Over the next two to three trading days, AVGO is likely to consolidate within a projected price corridor of $349.31 to $389.54. The probability of an upward move is assessed at 59%, while the chance of a downward move is 41%. Baseline expectations are for range-bound trading; further gains would depend on a decisive breakout above resistance, whereas extended selling could drag the price toward the lower end of the volatility band relative to current levels.

Anton Kharitonov, analyst at Traders Union, sees the Apple supply extension as a strong fundamental positive for Broadcom. However, he notes that key technical oscillators remain bearish and short-term momentum has faded. Kharitonov remains cautious and expects range-bound trading, with further upside dependent on a firm breakout. "Despite the positive news flow, I would not consider a directional trade until AVGO reclaims strong momentum above $389.54."

Earlier, analysts noted that Broadcom faced a cautious technical outlook, driven by persistent downside momentum and elevated insider selling. The recent surge above key moving averages, catalyzed by the long-term Apple supply agreement, introduces a potential shift toward stabilization, making sustained closes above immediate support at $368.03 critical for confirming a reversal scenario.
