JPMorgan recommends aggressive buying of Broadcom stock, citing AI chip dominance

JPMorgan raised its price target on Broadcom stock to $580, implying over 46% upside, citing the company's dominance in AI chips and accelerating AI revenue growth past 200% year-over-year. The bank reaffirmed an Overweight rating, highlighting Broadcom's custom ASICs for hyperscale cloud providers and a $35 billion AI infrastructure platform with partners Apollo and Blackstone.

JPMorgan recommends aggressive buying of Broadcom stock, citing AI chip dominance The bank raised its price target to $580, implying over 46% upside as Broadcom's AI revenue growth accelerates past 200% year-over-year JPMorgan just told its clients to load up on Broadcom. The bank raised its price target on AVGO from $500 to $580, reaffirming an Overweight rating that amounts to a full-throated endorsement of the chipmaker’s AI trajectory. With Broadcom shares trading between $376 and $396 when the note dropped on June 17, that new target implies upside in the range of 46% to 54%. The AI engine behind the call Broadcom’s forecasted revenue for the July quarter sits at $29.4 billion, an 84% year-over-year increase. Broadcom anticipates its AI revenues alone will hit $16 billion, representing growth of over 200% year-over-year. The company has carved out a niche designing custom ASICs, application-specific integrated circuits, for hyperscale cloud providers. JPMorgan’s thesis boils down to a simple argument: the market is underpricing how much of the AI infrastructure buildout will flow through Broadcom’s order books. A $35 billion infrastructure play On June 9, the company launched its AI XPV Platform in partnership with Apollo and Blackstone, securing $35 billion in initial financing. The platform is designed to support the development of over 20 gigawatts of AI compute capacity through 2028. Early adopters of the platform include Anthropic and OpenAI, two of the most prominent names in frontier AI development. What this means for crypto-adjacent investors The custom ASIC expertise that makes Broadcom valuable to hyperscalers is the same category of technology that underpins crypto mining hardware. If Broadcom’s infrastructure push succeeds in dramatically expanding available AI capacity, it could paradoxically both compete with and validate the decentralized compute thesis. More capacity means lower prices, which means more projects become economically viable. The risk, as always, is that AI spending proves cyclical rather than structural. If corporate budgets tighten or AI applications fail to generate the expected returns, companies like Broadcom would feel the pinch quickly. JPMorgan’s 46-54% upside scenario assumes the current spending trajectory holds. Disclosure: This article was edited by Editorial Team.
