AI revenue surge and deals offset margin concerns in mixed sentiment

Broadcom reported record revenue, operating profit, and free cash flow for its second-quarter fiscal year 2026, confirming robust fundamental performance driven by accelerating growth in AI semiconductor revenue. The company also finalized a long-term deal with Alphabet to design its TPUs through 2031 and extended its partnership with Meta Platforms to develop Meta Training and Inference Accelerator AI chips through 2029, according to Finance Yahoo, providing multi-year revenue and strategic alignment within the expanding AI hardware market. A quarterly dividend of $0.65 per share was declared, payable June 30, while macroeconomic headwinds, index rebalancing, and investor concerns about custom chip competition and gross margin compression persisted, according to Tradingkey.

Oversold signals emerge as support levels approach amid indecision

On the H1 chart, AVGO is trading below the MA-20 at $398.96 and the MA-50 at $391.05, with the MA-200 on the daily timeframe at $360.37 acting as a long-term support level. The Ichimoku Kijun line is set at $395.56 and serves as immediate resistance. RSI registers at 35.91 (Sell), while Stoch RSI, CCI, and BBP all indicate oversold intraday conditions. Meanwhile, MACD, ADX, and the Awesome Oscillator reflect neutral momentum, pointing to ongoing indecision among directional indicators.

Downside risk dominates as consolidation pattern narrows outlook

Looking ahead over the next two to three trading days, AVGO is expected to consolidate within a volatility band between $367.3 and $393.96. The probability of an upward move is estimated at 21%, with a markedly higher likelihood—79%—for further downward action. Should price break above resistance at $395.56, a short-term recovery could be triggered, while continued weakness may push the stock below $367.3, extending the recent downtrend.

Viktoras Karapetjanc, expert at Traders Union, sees Broadcom’s record financial results and major AI partnerships as strong fundamental drivers for future growth. He notes that macroeconomic headwinds and margin concerns are tempering sentiment, with technicals currently weighing on price action. Karapetjanc believes the long-term revenue visibility from Alphabet and Meta deals keeps the broader outlook constructive, despite short-term volatility. "If support holds near $367.3, I expect renewed interest from buyers as Broadcom’s strategic AI initiatives build long-term value."

Earlier, analysts noted that Broadcom’s stock was trading sideways, supported by strong fundamentals but constrained by overbought technical signals. The current setup marks a shift toward technical oversold conditions despite ongoing fundamental strength, making the reaction to key support at the $360–$367 area critical for assessing downside risk in the near term.
