Shares in Broadcom (AVGO) stock have hit record highs in 2025, prompting analysts to purge previous price forecasts for higher numbers. Currently trading at over $270, AVGO has climbed nearly 20% year-to-date. The semiconductor market is projected to continue growing this year, as experts anticipate, and Broadcom’s development in that sector remains impressive.

There has been no shortage of high expectations for Broadcom over the last several months. Many experts have begun to theorize that the stock may be on a $2 trillion trajectory. However, it has struggled amid an increasingly volatile market that is held back by ongoing macroeconomic struggles and geopolitical tensions. Fortunately, those struggles finally appear to be over. The AI semiconductor revenue surged 46% year-over-year to over $4.4 billion in the second quarter of 2025.

The company’s stock has rallied an impressive 79% in just three months, significantly outpacing the S&P 500 Index ($SPX). This remarkable performance has caught the attention of Wall Street analysts, and now the Street is forecasting even further ATHs. Indeed, analysts at HSBC have given it a “strong-buy” rating and raised their AVGO prediction by 70% to $400.

HSBC analyst Frank Lee projects that Broadcom’s ASIC revenue will reach $28.4 billion in fiscal 2026 and $42.8 billion in fiscal 2027. Broadcom is heavily involved in the AI boom, supplying custom AI accelerators (XPUs) and networking solutions for AI data centers. Its AI revenue has been growing significantly (77% year-over-year in Q1 FY2025). Furthermore, it is expected to jump 60% year-over-year in Q3 FY2025 to $5.1 billion. Hyperscale cloud providers like Alphabet and Meta Platforms are key customers for Broadcom’s ASICs. Other firms are also revising their forecasts. Citi upwardly revised the target to $276 from its previous $210 last month, and that forecast has already been beaten and is ready to be hiked again.

Broadcom (AVGO) appears to be a compelling investment opportunity driven by its strong position in the growing AI and semiconductor markets, robust financial performance, positive analyst outlook, and commitment to shareholder returns.
