Summary
Broadcom traded at $364.52, down 4.1%, after Marvell and Google said they would develop custom AI chips together, unsettling investors over Broadcom’s position with a key customer.
The deal threatens Broadcom’s role as the incumbent custom-silicon partner in Google’s Tensor Processing Unit ecosystem and sharpened worries about longer-term AI market-share retention.
The move was notable but not extreme for Broadcom, whose shares have logged 19 swings greater than 5% over the past year.
The selloff adds to pressure on a stock still 24.3% below its $481.57 52-week high, even though it remains up 4.9% this year.
