Why Broadcom (AVGO) Stock Is Trading Up Today Jabin Bastian Wed, July 8, 2026 at 8:02 PM EDT 3 min read AVGO AAPL What Happened? Shares of fabless chip and software maker Broadcom (NASDAQ:AVGO) jumped 5.2% in the afternoon session after the company confirmed an expanded, multi-year partnership with Apple exceeding $30 billion for custom silicon components and wireless technologies. The deal locks Apple, which analysts estimate accounts for roughly 20% of Broadcom's annual revenue, in as a committed customer through 2031 for custom ASIC silicon and advanced wireless connectivity parts, including FBAR radio-frequency filters. Broadcom will invest $1.5 billion to expand its Fort Collins, Colorado facility to produce more than 15 billion U.S.-made chips. The central overhang on Broadcom's valuation had been the fear that Apple would gradually in-source these components. Extending and deepening the relationship through 2031 reframes Apple from an in-sourcing threat into a secured, multi-generational design win, giving investors the relief and revenue visibility they'd been seeking. Is now the time to buy Broadcom? Access our full analysis report here, it's free . Broadcom's shares are quite volatile and have had 16 moves greater than 5% over the last year. In that context, today's move indicates the market considers this news meaningful but not something that would fundamentally change its perception of the business. The previous big move we wrote about was 2 days ago when the stock gained 4.1% on the news that the company disclosed new multi-year agreements with Apple, extending their collaboration through 2031 for Broadcom to develop and supply a range of custom ASIC silicon for multiple generations of Apple products. Apple is estimated by analysts to account for roughly 20% of Broadcom's annual revenue, so locking in its largest customer through 2031 and expanding the relationship from wireless and connectivity parts into custom, AI-capable ASICs speaks directly to the fear that drove June's roughly 20% selloff. The deal reframes Apple from a gradual in-sourcing risk into a multi-year design win. A broad semiconductor rebound amplified the move.This was a sector recovery on top of an oversold technical bounce and cheaper oil after OPEC+ lifted output. Two events reinforced it as SK Hynix's ~$28bn Nasdaq listing the previous week and Samsung's earnings later in the week kept the "memory super-cycle" story in the headlines. Broadcom is up 12.2% since the beginning of the year, but at $389.99 per share, it is still trading 19% below its 52-week high of $481.57 from June 2026. Investors who bought $1,000 worth of Broadcom's shares 5 years ago would now be looking at an investment worth $8,289.
