Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) has slid into a deep bear market, down roughly 25% from its year-to-date high even as the broader market shows no such strain.

The Nasdaq 100 and S&P 500 are both hovering near record levels, underscoring how sharply AVGO has diverged from its peers.

That divergence sets up a pivotal moment for the stock, as its September 2nd earnings report will test whether this pullback is a temporary setback or the start of something more troubling.
