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.

Bear Case

red Wall Street bear icon

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

  • The company has a high price-to-earnings (P/E) ratio of 156.33, which may indicate that the stock is overvalued compared to its earnings, potentially leading to a price correction.
  • Broadcom's recent insider sales, totaling 172,168 shares valued at over $40 million, could signal a lack of confidence from insiders about the company's short-term prospects.
  • The stock has shown volatility, with a beta of 1.01, suggesting that it moves in line with the market, which could pose risks during market downturns.
  • Despite recent upgrades, the stock's performance has been inconsistent, with a significant drop from its one-year high, which may concern risk-averse investors.
  • The company's debt-to-equity ratio of 0.98 indicates a relatively high level of debt, which could impact financial stability and flexibility in adverse economic conditions.
