Broadcom's Biggest Customers Want To Slow AI Down - They're Still Buying

Summary Broadcom Inc. maintains a Strong Buy rating as AI chip demand is robust, with $350 billion in shipments locked for fiscal 2027–2028. AVGO's AI revenue targets—$115B in 2027 and $230B in 2028—are grounded in secured supply and customer power constraints, not theoretical ceilings. Capex is rising sharply to address supply chokepoints, but operating margin remains strong at 67.9%, with AI now 56% of total revenue. AVGO's valuation has compressed to ~11.5x management's $30+ 2028 EPS target as market focus shifts to credit risk from AI lease guarantees. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

CrowdStrike: Insane Valuation Built On AI Hype With 165 P/E

Summary CrowdStrike is downgraded from Buy to Hold due to extreme valuation and limited margin of safety. Despite 26% annual revenue growth and strong AI-driven demand, CRWD trades at 165x FY27 P/E and 35x sales, reflecting hype over fundamentals. Stock-based compensation nearly offsets free cash flow, amplifying dilution concerns and making the current premium unsustainable. Hold is justified: upside is possible but unlikely; a macro-driven reset could offer a better entry if valuation reverts. Read the full article on Seeking Alpha

AAPL: AI Reset And Foldables Will Test Pricing Power And Margins

Apple's analyst fair value estimate has been lifted by about $7 to roughly $326, as analysts factor in slightly higher assumed future P/E multiples around $35.7, modestly softer margin and growth assumptions tied to memory cost pressure, and product launch pricing that aims to support iPhone and foldable Duo volumes without aggressive hikes. Analyst Commentary Recent research on Apple highlights a split view around the latest product launch, pricing decisions, and the impact of higher memory and component costs.
