About Broadcom
Broadcom traces back to Hewlett-Packard's chip business. As Avago it bought Broadcom Corporation in 2016 and took its name, then added infrastructure software with CA, Symantec's enterprise unit and VMware.
The journey
The business descends from Hewlett-Packard's semiconductor group, became Agilent's unit and then Avago, and listed in 2009. It bought Broadcom Corporation in 2016, then CA Technologies in 2018 and VMware in 2023.
What sets it apart
Broadcom focuses on products that are hard to replace and that customers keep for years, in networking chips and in infrastructure software. It grows largely by acquiring and running such businesses.

Inside MrChart
Everything MrChart gives you on AVGO
Prices and figures change by the minute, so they live in the platform, not on this page. Here is what you get when you open the stock, and each service opens its live screen.
MrChart Value: a fair value to set against the price
Eight independent valuation models, blended with the analysts' consensus, give one published fair value. The models are weighted by the kind of company and its stage of life, then checked against its peers, so you can see at a glance where today's price stands.
What you will see
- One fair value beside today's price
- Weighting by company type and stage
- A check against peers in the same group
MrChart Score: one grade from 1 to 10, with the reasons
The score reads a stock through four pillars: technical, fundamental, value and risk. It is not a black box. You see what lifts the grade and what drags it down, and the Explain button turns each part into plain language.
What you will see
- Four pillars, each open to read
- What lifts it and what drags it down
- An explanation next to every part
Options flow: the large trades as they print
Large option trades in the stock appear as they happen, with the strike, the expiry and the size. It is how you see where big money is positioning before the move shows on the chart, for this stock and for the whole market.
What you will see
- Calls and puts with direction and size
- Whale trades set apart from the noise
- Filters for expiry, size and sentiment
Dealer levels: support and resistance from the options market
MrChart Flow shows where dealers are positioned: gamma levels, call and put walls, the gamma flip and Dark Pool activity. Whale support is drawn in green below the price and whale resistance in red above it, the same mechanics institutional desks rely on.
What you will see
- Call walls and put walls on the chart
- The gamma flip level
- Dark Pool activity beside the price
MrChart AI Agents: a research team that argues before it answers
Eleven specialist agents work on the platform's live data. Some gather and analyse the evidence, two debate the bull and bear cases, and four weigh the arguments, review risk and verify every figure. You can pick one of nine analyst personas to set the style of the answer.
What you will see
- A balanced bull and bear debate
- Every figure checked against platform data
- Arabic or English, in nine analyst styles
The Explain button: a friend beside every number
Every card, section and figure has an Explain icon. Press it and the AI takes that exact number at its current value and tells you what it means, why it sits at that level and what it implies, in plain language and from live data.
What you will see
- What the figure means
- Why it is at this level now
- What it implies, without advice to buy or sell
Smart money: insiders, Congress and institutions
MrChart follows what the people closest to a company do: insider trades from Form 4, congressional trade disclosures and institutional holdings from 13F filings, set against the price chart so the timing is easy to read.
What you will see
- Insider purchases and sales
- Trades disclosed by members of Congress
- Institutional holdings from 13F filings
SEC filings, read for you
The 10-K, 10-Q and 8-K filings are summarised by AI in plain language, so you get the point of a long document in a minute and can still open the original.
What you will see
- Summaries in Arabic and English
- The key lines pulled out
- A link to the original filing
An 18-page PDF report on the stock, in one click
