Broadcom is back at $292.40, matching the 52-week low it set on March 30 and erasing a rally that carried the $1.4 trillion chipmaker above $445 in May. Anyone who bought the AI trade at the highs is now underwater by a third.

"This Market Genuinely Makes no Sense" First time here?
A 166-comment argument over whether AI chipmakers and hyperscalers at teens-to-low-20s P/E are now cheaper than Wingstop, Cava and Starbucks at 34 to 100-plus. The pushback is worth reading: defensive and restaurant multiples only look safe until you price the growth you are paying for.
Mad Money w/ Jim Cramer 10/27/26
- Cramer rejects the AI all-clear despite Broadcom arranging $63 billion in financing for Anthropic compute
- Meta's $25 billion equity raise was five times oversubscribed, but the $60 billion at-the-market program worries him
- CoreWeave bonds reaching a 15% yield flagged as the sector's unresolved weak spot
- Caller questions on Micron volatility and Revolution Medicines' pancreatic cancer drug
The bull case for data centers today rested on financing rather than profits, and Cramer wants to hear a customer say the chips are minting money before calling it clear. He expects Meta's at-the-market selling to weigh on the stock as supply hits at the wrong moments, with borrowing costs into a Fed decision the swing factor for everything levered to the buildout.
Bank of America, Blackstone, Citi and Morgan Stanley Announce Landmark $63 Billion Financing Structure to Enable AI Compute Capacity in Partnership with Broadcom
Anthropic's XPU and networking order now has committed bank capital behind it: an SPV funded by four lenders will buy the Broadcom silicon and lease it out, with deliveries starting in calendar 2027. Broadcom is providing residual value support equal to the first lien portion, so shareholders get locked-in demand visibility with some tail exposure attached.
Two years in Eric Bleeker's AI Portfolio, and Broadcom has nearly doubled: a $10,000 stake is worth roughly $19,550 today. The custom-silicon bet that looked early in October 2024 is now the portfolio's proof of concept.

Chips own the board today: Nvidia drew 1,772 comments with traders leaning bullish, while Micron is pulling nearly as much attention and souring fast. Uber is the odd one out, heating up quickly outside the AI trade.
Source: Reddit2 trillion valuation with 4b of revenue?
Anthropic's prospectus sets $4.59B in 2025 revenue against an $8.06B operating loss at a roughly $2 trillion valuation. The number traders shouldn't skip: $518B in cloud, compute and infrastructure obligations, which is the bull case for the picks-and-shovels names.
Nearly two years in Eric Bleeker's AI Portfolio and Broadcom has almost doubled, turning $1,000 into roughly $1,926. The ride was anything but smooth: the position swung from up 135% to up 65% and back again without ever breaking the trend.

A House member just rotated out of a defensive pest-control name and into the two chipmakers at the center of the AI buildout, all on the same August day. The sale was the biggest leg of the three, and the filing landed 41 days later, so the repositioning only becomes public now.
