Broadcom shares fall about 14% after AI guidance disappoints
Broadcom shares dropped in the session after the fiscal Q2 report, a move one press report put at about 14%. Other outlets gave figures from about 12% to 15%; the official close is unconfirmed. The sell-off came despite a revenue and EPS beat, because investors had wanted a higher AI outlook and the third-quarter AI guide of $16.0 billion was the main disappointment.
