Mizuho Raises Broadcom (AVGO) PT to $320 Amid Resumed China AI Chip Shipments

Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) is one of the best performing semiconductor stocks to buy now. On July 15, Mizuho increased its price target for Broadcom to $320 from $315, while maintaining an Outperform rating. The adjustment showed updated semiconductor estimates following the Trump administration’s decision to allow Nvidia Corp. (NASDAQ:NVDA) and other AI accelerator providers to resume AI graphics processing unit shipments to China.

This policy change is seen as a positive for US companies re-entering China’s $50 billion market. In Q2 2025, Broadcom reported a record total revenue of $15 billion, which was a 20% increase year-over-year. Semiconductor revenue in particular was $8.4 billion, which increased by 17% year-over-year, with AI semiconductor revenue specifically exceeding $4.4 billion, a 46% increase.

Infrastructure software revenue also grew by 25% to $6.6 billion, largely attributed to the successful integration of VMware and robust VCF sales. However, non-AI semiconductor revenue saw a 5% year-over-year decline, with specific downturns in the industrial and wireless sectors. Broadcom anticipates a sequential decline in consolidated gross margin by ~1.3% in Q3 due to a higher mix of XPUs.

Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) designs, develops, and supplies various semiconductor devices and infrastructure software solutions worldwide.
