Semiconductor giant **Broadcom, Inc. (AVGO)** reported its earnings on **Wednesday, June 7, 2023**, revealing a **48% year-over-year revenue growth** and a **54% year-over-year earnings growth**. Despite these figures slightly exceeding expectations, investors reacted negatively to the company’s maintained forecast of **$100 billion** in semiconductor revenue. This led to a significant decline in Broadcom’s share price, dropping more than **25%** over Thursday and Friday.
The repercussions of Broadcom’s plunge affected the broader tech sector, with the **NASDAQ** finishing down nearly **5%** for the week. This downturn raised questions regarding investor sentiment around AI and semiconductor stocks, especially as they had previously driven significant market gains.
