Broadcom - Analysts' Recommendations and Stock Price Forecast (2025)

MarketBeat calculates consensus analyst ratings for stocks using the most recent rating from each Wall Street analyst that has rated a stock within the last twelve months. Each analyst's rating is normalized to a standardized rating score of 1 (sell), 2 (hold), 3 (buy) or 4 (strong buy). Analyst consensus ratings scores are calculated using the mean average of the number of normalized sell, hold, buy and strong buy ratings from Wall Street analysts. Each stock's consensus analyst rating is derived from its calculated consensus ratings score (0 to .5 = Strong Sell, .5 to 1 = Sell, 1 to 1.5 = Reduce, 1.5 to 2.5 = Hold, 2.5 to 3.0 = Moderate Buy, 3.0 to 3.5 = Buy, >3.5 = Strong Buy). MarketBeat's consensus price targets are a mean average of the most recent available price targets set by each analyst that has set a price target for the stock in the last twelve months. MarketBeat's consensus ratings and consensus price targets may differ from those calculated by other firms due to differences in methodology and available data.

Bull Case

green Wall Street bull icon

Here are some ways that investors could benefit from investing in Broadcom:

  • Broadcom has a strong market capitalization of $1.05 trillion, indicating a robust financial position and the ability to invest in growth opportunities.
  • Recent insider trading activity shows confidence in the company, with insiders selling shares but still holding significant positions, suggesting they believe in the company's long-term value.
  • The stock price is currently around $181.44, which may present a buying opportunity for investors looking to enter at a lower price point compared to its potential future growth.
  • Institutional investors own 76.43% of Broadcom's stock, reflecting strong institutional confidence and support, which can lead to more stability in stock performance.
  • Broadcom's focus on advanced semiconductor technology positions it well in a growing market, especially with the increasing demand for complex digital and mixed-signal devices.

Broadcom
Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

Investors should be bearish about investing in Broadcom for these reasons:

  • The high P/E ratio of 182.76 suggests that the stock may be overvalued compared to its earnings, which could deter value-focused investors.
  • Insider sales totaling 311,080 shares worth $53,540,590 over the last quarter may raise concerns about the company's short-term outlook and insider confidence.
  • The company's debt-to-equity ratio of 1.02 indicates a relatively high level of debt compared to equity, which could pose risks in a rising interest rate environment.
  • Recent fluctuations in stock performance may indicate volatility, which can be a concern for risk-averse investors.
  • With only 2.00% of the stock owned by insiders, there may be less alignment between management and shareholder interests, potentially impacting decision-making.
