AVGO Fell After Great Earnings. Here's Why That's OK

Broadcom just posted record free cash flow — yet the stock dropped 10%. Here's what Wall Street was actually waiting for, and why it didn't come. Broadcom (AVGO) delivered a strong fiscal Q2 2026 earnings report: record free cash flow, 46% FCF margin, and AI semiconductor revenue on pace to nearly double year-over-year. Yet the stock sold off more than 10% after hours. In this video, Nick breaks down exactly why that happened, what CEO Hock Tan said on the call about the $100B+ AI revenue target for fiscal 2027, and what it means for long-term investors. We cover Broadcom's two business segments — semiconductor solutions and infrastructure software (VMware) — and why the mix shift toward AI chips is compressing gross margins even as operating leverage and EPS continue to accelerate. We also dig into the newly disclosed Google TPU supply agreement extended through 2031, Anthropic's access to that compute infrastructure, and the Apollo/Blackstone debt financing structures Broadcom is backing with residual value guarantees. This is a measured, data-driven look at one of the most important names in AI infrastructure — no hype, just fundamentals.
