<h3 class="wp-block-heading">Why Analysts Love Broadcom</h3>
<p>Bank of America&#8217;s analyst Vivek Arya reiterated a &#8220;Buy&#8221; rating on Broadcom following the quarterly report, boosting the 12-month price target from $215 to $250 and hinting at a potential 15% upside from current levels.</p>
<p>Arya&#8217;s optimism stems from three main drivers:</p>
<ol>
<li><strong>AI&#8217;s Expanding Footprint</strong>: Broadcom&#8217;s custom AI chips (ASICs) now serve five major customers, up from three previously. The company's AI-related revenue could soar to a served available market of $60–$90 billion by 2027—up from an estimated $15–$20 billion in 2023.</li>
<li><strong>Apple's Steady Demand</strong>: Broadcom is expected to maintain its strong relationship with Apple, despite prior concerns about declining content orders.</li>
<li><strong>Robust Earnings Growth</strong>: Analysts forecast a 15% sales growth and a 20% adjusted earnings-per-share (EPS) growth trajectory through 2026, underpinned by Broadcom&#8217;s diversified portfolio spanning silicon and infrastructure software.</li>
</ol>
<p>"Broadcom's AI-driven growth potential and diversified base position it as one of the best opportunities in the chip sector," Arya said in a note, justifying their upward revision of earnings per share in fiscal year 2025 and 2026 by 5% and 3%, respectively.</p>

<p>Yesterday, at 10:34 AM on November 21st, a significant trading signal occurred for <strong>Arista Networks, Inc. (NYSE:<a class="ticker" href="https://www.benzinga.com/stock/ANET#NYSE">ANET</a>)</strong> as it demonstrated a Power Inflow at a price of <strong>$394.96</strong>. This indicator is crucial for traders who want to know directionally where institutions and so-called "smart money" moves in the market. They see the value of utilizing order flow analytics to guide their trading decisions. The Power Inflow points to a possible uptrend in Arista&#8217;s stock, marking a potential entry point for traders looking to capitalize on the expected upward movement. Traders with this signal closely watch for sustained momentum in Arista&#8217;s stock price, interpreting this event as a bullish sign.</p>
<p>Signal description</p>
<p>Order flow analytics, aka transaction or market flow analysis, separate and study both the retail and institutional volume rate of orders (flow). It involves analyzing the flow of buy and sell orders, along with size, timing, and other associated characteristics and patterns, to gain insights and make more informed trading decisions. <em>This particular indicator is interpreted by active traders as a bullish signal.</em>&nbsp;</p>
<p>The Power Inflow occurs within the first two hours of the market open and generally signals the trend that helps gauge the stock&#8217;s overall direction, powered by institutional activity in the stock, for the remainder of the day.&nbsp;</p>
<p>By incorporating order flow analytics into their trading strategies, market participants can better interpret market conditions, identify trading opportunities, and potentially improve their trading performance. But let's not forget that while watching smart money flow can provide valuable insights, it is crucial to incorporate effective risk management strategies to protect capital and mitigate potential losses. Employing a consistent and effective risk management plan helps traders navigate the uncertainties of the market in a more controlled and calculated manner, increasing the likelihood of long-term success</p>

<p><em>After Market Close UPDATE</em>:</p>
<p>The price at the time of the Power Inflow was <strong>$394.86</strong>. The returns on the High price (<strong>$404.96</strong>) and Close price (<strong>$404.65)</strong> after the Power Inflow were respectively <strong>2.6% and 2.5%. That is why it is important to have a trading plan </strong>that includes Profit Targets and Stop Losses that reflect your risk appetite. In this case, the high of the day and close were very close but that is not always the case</p>

Stock Split

Arista Approved Four-For-One Forward Stock Split

<p><strong>Financial Outlook</strong></p>
<p>For the fourth quarter of 2024, we expect:</p>
<ul>
<li>Revenue between $1.85 billion to $1.90 billion</li>
<li>Non-GAAP gross margin of approximately 63% - 64%; and</li>
<li>Non-GAAP operating margin of approximately 44%.</li>
</ul>
<p>Guidance for non-GAAP financial measures excludes certain items, including stock-based compensation expense, intangible asset amortization, and potential non-recurring charges or benefits. A reconciliation of non-GAAP guidance measures to corresponding GAAP measures is not available on a forward-looking basis without unreasonable effort because these exclusions can be uncertain or difficult to predict, including stock-based compensation expense which is impacted by the timing of employee stock transactions, the company's future hiring and retention needs and the future fair market value of the company's common stock. The actual amount of these exclusions will have a significant impact on the company's GAAP gross margin and GAAP operating margin.</p>
