Broadcom remains one of the best artificial intelligence (AI) stocks for long-term investors to buy now.
After a red-hot first half of 2025, I predicted that Broadcom (AVGO +0.17%) would continue to run higher in the second half of last year due to its leading position in global connectivity and artificial intelligence (AI). Sure enough, Broadcom soared 25.6% in the second half of 2025 and finished the year up 75.5% — outperforming all the “Magnificent Seven” stocks.
Broadcom has compounded in value by so much in recent years that it justified expanding the Magnificent Seven to a group that I coined in August of last year — the “Ten Titans,” made up of:
- Nvidia (NVDA 0.72%)
- Alphabet
- Apple
- Microsoft
- Amazon
- Broadcom
- Meta Platforms
- Tesla
- Oracle
- Netflix
The Ten Titans are so massive that they make up a combined 38.1% of the S&P 500. Despite Broadcom’s rapid run-up, the stock has pulled back in recent months and is down 22.5% from its 52-week high, at the time of this writing….
