Broadcom‘s (NASDAQ:AVGO) AI machine is running at a pace that makes even the most bullish semiconductor forecasts look conservative.

AVGO stock is moving. See the chart and price action here.

The company reported $8.4 billion in AI semiconductor revenue in Q1 FY2026, up 106% year over year — and that wasn’t even the headline.

CEO Hock Tan guided Q2 AI revenue to $10.7 billion, a figure that, annualized, puts Broadcom on track for more than $40 billion in AI chip sales this fiscal year alone.

Consider that the entire AI semiconductor market barely existed on Broadcom’s income statement three years ago.
