A $10,000 investment split equally among Nvidia, AMD and Broadcom could be worth about $29,000 by end-2030, provided AI infrastructure spending keeps growing. The author's projections value the 15.7 Nvidia shares at $14,475, based on a share price of about $922, a 19x forward P/E multiple, and EPS above the $28.79 consensus for fiscal 2031, which the author considers low. AMD, with 6.5 shares, is expected to benefit from AI inference demand and target a 50% share of a $220 billion server CPU market by 2030, which could take the position to $6,565. Broadcom, a leader in custom AI chips, could take its 10.3 shares to about $10,197 by late 2030.

- AMD or Broadcom: If I Could Only Own 1 AI Chip Stock Through 2030, Here's My Pick
AMD and Broadcom have both benefited from the AI boom, with AMD shares up 421% and Broadcom up 285% over three years. In Q2, AMD's revenue rose 50% year over year to $11.5 billion, its data center segment reached $6.7 billion (up 107%), and non-GAAP EPS hit $1.66 (up 246%), with AMD projecting a $220 billion CPU opportunity and a $1.4 trillion AI accelerator opportunity by 2030. Broadcom's fiscal Q3 2026 revenue grew 86% to $29.6 billion, with AI semiconductor revenue up 221% to $16.7 billion, and it projects $115 billion in AI revenue for fiscal 2027 and $230 billion for fiscal 2028. The author gives a slight edge to Broadcom on valuation, at 19.4x forward earnings versus 39.5x for AMD, though AMD's EPS is growing faster. Broadcom's margins could decline as lower-margin AI chip sales take a larger share of its total revenue.
- 3 Magnificent AI Chip Stocks That Could Help Set You Up for Life
The article argues the semiconductor industry can build long-term wealth, with global chip sales projected to rise from $126 billion in 1998 to $1.6 trillion in 2026, according to the Semiconductor Industry Association. It highlights three stocks: Nvidia, Broadcom and Cerebras Systems. Nvidia is up about 19% over the past year, with fiscal Q2 2026 revenue more than doubling year over year, a 64% profit margin and a valuation of about 14 times next year's expected earnings. Broadcom's AI chip revenue nearly tripled to almost $17 billion in its fiscal third quarter, while its stock is down about 3% over the past year as of Oct. 20. Cerebras trades about 32% below its IPO price despite 75% revenue growth in 2025, and the article calls it the riskiest of the three because it is still losing money.
- Meta Tested Broadcom’s CPO for 1 Million Port-Hours. What It Found
Micas Networks announced a compact co-packaged optics (CPO) switch built on Broadcom's Tomahawk 6-Davisson chip, with production expected in early 2027. Davisson is Broadcom's third-generation CPO switch and can move 102.4 terabits per second. A paper presented in October 2025 said Meta tested Broadcom's previous-generation CPO switches for one million cumulative device hours without a single link failure, while using 65% less power per lane than traditional pluggable optics. Davisson has not yet published comparable data, and Nvidia's Spectrum-X Photonics CPO switch is already in full production. Broadcom (AVGO) trades at a forward non-GAAP P/E of 30.43x, about 11% above its 5-year average, though analysts expect earnings to rise about 71% this fiscal year.
- Nvidia and Broadcom Narratives Define the AI Chip Landscape
NVIDIA reported $96.22B in revenue, more than doubling year over year, while Broadcom grew AI semiconductor revenue 221% by building custom chips for frontier labs. The article contrasts NVIDIA's complete AI systems, with Data Center revenue of $89.02B, up 117%, against Broadcom's custom XPUs, which made up 73% of its AI revenue and depend on six customers. NVIDIA says it has supply for only about 70% of demand, while Broadcom's roadmap includes Anthropic's five gigawatts of TPU v8i in 2027 and OpenAI's 1.3 gigawatts of Jalapeno. Both companies rely on Apollo and Blackstone vehicles for financing, and on October 14 NVIDIA fell 3.16% while Broadcom fell 3.1%. The author leans toward Broadcom, noting it is up just 0.59% year to date versus 18.94% for NVIDIA, with a forward P/E near 19x.
- Broadcom vs. Nvidia: If I Could Only Own One for the Next 5 Years, It Would Be This One
The author would choose Nvidia over Broadcom if limited to owning just one AI stock for the next five years, and says he keeps holding his shares. Nvidia's fiscal 2027 second-quarter revenue rose 106% to $96.2 billion and net income rose 126% to $59.7 billion, with data center revenue up 117% to $89 billion, and it projected third-quarter revenue of $108 billion. Its edge comes from a full ecosystem of GPUs, networking, software such as CUDA, and the Vera Rubin platform now moving into production. Broadcom, which makes custom ASIC chips and networking gear, reported fiscal 2026 third-quarter revenue of $29.6 billion, up 86%, and projected fourth-quarter revenue near $34.8 billion. The author sees Broadcom's custom chip business as promising but believes Nvidia has the stronger competitive position.
- 1 Red Flag That Keeps Me From Buying AMD Stock
The author says they are not planning to buy AMD stock because it looks too expensive, even though AMD's products are now more competitive alternatives to Nvidia's AI computing units. AMD trades at 130 times trailing 12-month earnings and 67 times forward earnings, well above the 25 to 35 times the author considers typical for a big tech company in the AI race. At 32 times next year's earnings, the article argues the stock already prices in most of the growth expected for 2027, which could lead to a sizable sell-off or slower gains as the stock grows into its valuation. The article compares this with Nvidia, which trades at 27 times trailing earnings.

- In pictures: Initially peaceful protests across France over inequality again descend into violence
Mostly peaceful protests across France over rising living costs and inequality turned violent again at the weekend. France's Interior Ministry said 410,000 people joined rallies in several major cities, including Paris. In Paris, riot police used tear gas and water cannon against about 500 hooded youths throwing stones, while in Marseille, youths blocked streets, set fire to bins and threw rocks and bottles at police. The protests began when high school students in suburban Paris complained about poor school conditions, including teacher shortages. The yield on France's 10-year bond rose above 5% for the first time since 2002, settling at about 5.03% on Friday, and some investors fear the debt problems could spread across the euro zone.
- Cathie Wood Just Poured Millions Into 2 Nuclear Stocks -- and Neither Was NuScale Power
Ark Invest funds run by Cathie Wood bought shares of X-Energy and Oklo this week, though none of its ETFs hold NuScale Power. On October 22, ARK Innovation ETF (ARKK), ARK Autonomous Tech & Robotics ETF (ARKQ) and ARK Space & Defense Innovation ETF (ARKX) bought 292,022, 126,437 and 66,436 X-Energy shares, an estimated $5.1 million total at an assumed average price of $10.48. Purchases continued on Wednesday, adding about $2.2 million of X-Energy stock through ARKQ and ARKX. ARKQ also bought 150,998 Oklo shares on October 22, valued at about $4.1 million as the stock traded between $26.36 and $28.20. The article notes that neither company has started commercial SMR operations, so both carry higher risk, and cautions against blindly following other investors' buying activity.
- Gold Royalty Fell While It Turned A Profit
Gold Royalty reported record Q1 2026 revenue of US$7.2 million and net income of US$1.8 million, along with a larger undrawn credit facility and a reaffirmed multi-year production outlook. In Q2 2026, revenue was US$6.7 million with net income of US$1.8 million, versus US$3.8 million in revenue and a US$0.8 million loss a year earlier, and net margin moved from a loss-making 21.7% to a positive 26.5%. Even so, the shares fell from US$4.04 at the start of the year to US$2.83, leaving investors who held since then down 30.6% including dividends. At the start of the year, the bullish view put fair value at US$6.03 and the bearish view at US$3.25, and the article says the key question is whether royalty cash flows can grow sustainably enough to outweigh dilution, acquisition costs and gold price swings.
- Iran says it shot down US drone after Trump's warning
Iran's military said its air defenses shot down a US drone over the southern port city of Bandar Abbas, and Tasnim reported it was a US-made LUCAS drone. The incident came after President Trump said on October 24 that the US could strike Iran “as early as tomorrow” or reach a deal, and stated the goal of preventing Iran from developing nuclear weapons. He said Iran could avoid further military action by complying with an agreement, but was unsure of the next step. The Wall Street Journal reported that aircraft from the USS George Washington carrier group were being readied, and that the US had reportedly evacuated some diplomatic posts and military bases in the region. Mohamad Elmasry, a professor at the Doha Institute for Graduate Studies, said these signs point to a new round of fighting.
