Broadcom (AVGO) jumped in early November, but its perpetual on Phemex still closed about 35% below its highest close, set in June. Our Broadcom price analysis reads AVGO's rise to about $323 as a jump inside a downtrend, because the close left AVGO under its 50-bar average. A recovery starts with a close back above that line.
AVGO's perpetual rose about 9.6% from its last close before the weekend to its close after the next US session, its largest one-session rise since its April 2026 listing. That put it third of the nine chip-stock perpetuals listed on Phemex, where the middle one rose about 6.8%. Chip stocks rose as a group, and Broadcom rose more than most but less than AMD and Astera Labs.
How Did AVGO's Jump Compare With Other Chip Stocks?
The group is the nine single-company chip stocks with a perpetual listed on Phemex and shares that trade in the US, from Nvidia and AMD to Micron and Astera Labs. Phemex calls these contracts TradFi futures, and they track a share price without ever expiring. Chip funds are left out, and so are the Korean listings, which trade in another session.
The middle column below measures from each contract's last weekday close, so it counts weekend trading. The last column covers only the single daily bar that held the US session.

AVGO came third of the nine on both measures, and its jump was about half again as big as its next-best session since listing, in August 2026. The other five names on the weekday-close base were SanDisk and Micron at about 7%, Intel at about 5%, and Qualcomm and TSMC at close to 4% each.
The wider list moved too. Across all 69 TradFi perpetuals listed on Phemex, 60 rose from their last weekday close and the middle one gained about 4%. Chip stocks as a group ran well ahead of that.
On the weekday-close base, AMD and Astera Labs both gained close to 15%, so the two leaders finished about five points ahead of AVGO.
Nine stocks over one session can't prove an edge. What they do show is that AVGO moved with its group, ahead of the middle and well behind the two leaders.
Can Broadcom Recover?
AVGO's first test is its 50-bar average, the mean of its last 50 daily closes, which stood near $341 with the close about 5% under it.
Phemex's AVGO contract trades 24/7 as a futures market, so its daily bars include weekends. That means 50 bars cover about seven weeks of trading, and the average tracks the recent trend.
The 200-bar average (weekend bars included) covers about 29 weeks and stood near $381, with the close about 15% under it. With the shorter average below the longer one, the trend was down.
Resistance came in a tight band from about $335 to $344. Those were AVGO's last two swing highs (closes that topped the days around them), one from early November and one from late October. The 50-bar average fell inside the same band.
Traders often watch swing highs as places where selling showed up before. A close above about $344 would clear all three levels at once, and that's the first close that would challenge the downtrend.
Support was much nearer. AVGO finished within a dollar of a late-October swing-low close near $323. The floor under that was the lowest close since the April 2026 listing, about $292. A close under $292 would set a new low since listing. Even after the rise, the close stood about 11% below its level a month earlier.
Will Broadcom Reach $500?
Reaching $500 would take a rise of about 55% from $323. Getting back to the highest close since listing, about $495 on 2 June 2026, would take about 53%. That high came after a climb of about 22% from the perpetual's first close near $405 in April.
Since its April 2026 listing, AVGO's perpetual never closed at $500 or higher. It traded above that mark on one day only, 3 June 2026, when it touched about $509 before closing lower.
The gap is easier to picture in sessions. Five sessions in a row as strong as AVGO's best one would carry it past $500, and four would fall short. The contract had only one session that strong in its whole listing.
AVGO's perpetual at $1,000 would need a rise of about 209% from $323, a bit more than tripling. Any AVGO stock forecast near $500 is a bet that the December results restart the climb toward the June high.
When Is Broadcom's Next Earnings Date?
Broadcom will report its fourth-quarter and fiscal-year 2026 results, along with its business outlook, on 9 December 2026 after the US market closes. The date comes from Broadcom's announcement of its results date, and a conference call follows the same day.
Those results can push AVGO through the $335 to $344 band or back toward its $292 floor. The perpetual keeps trading after the US close, so you'll see the first reaction on Phemex before Nasdaq reopens the next morning.
How Can You Trade AVGO on Phemex?
Phemex lists Broadcom as AVGO/USDT, a USDT-margined perpetual with leverage of up to 10x. You trade a contract that follows Broadcom's stock price and settles in USDT, so you never own the shares. Its daily bar closes in the New York evening after the US market shuts, so it carries after-hours trading and can finish away from Nasdaq's close.
The contract also trades through weekends, when Nasdaq is shut, so check which close a move starts from before you compare two moves. That's why Nvidia's two figures in the comparison table sit more than four points apart. The first counts its weekend trading and the second doesn't.
A perpetual has no expiry date. It stays close to the stock's price through funding rates, regular payments between traders holding long and short positions.
Futures use leverage, and a leveraged position is closed automatically if losses push its margin below a set minimum. That forced close is liquidation in crypto trading, and it works the same way on stock perpetuals. Lower leverage gives a position more room before that point, and a stop-loss closes it on your terms first.
-
Open a Phemex account and fund it with USDT.
-
Go to Futures and search for the AVGO/USDT perpetual contract.
-
Choose isolated or cross margin and set your leverage.
-
Place your order with a stop-loss, and check the position again before the 9 December results.
Frequently Asked Questions
Is Broadcom a good investment?
That depends on your view of its December results and the risk you can carry. On Phemex's perpetual, AVGO closed early November about 35% under its June high close and below both its 50-bar and 200-bar averages. A leveraged futures position adds liquidation risk on top of that.
What is AVGO's highest close on Phemex?
AVGO's highest close on Phemex was about $495, on 2 June 2026. That record covers its April 2026 listing to early November, when the contract closed near $323.
Why did AVGO trade on the weekend?
AVGO's contract on Phemex is a perpetual future, and it trades around the clock. Nasdaq shuts for the weekend while the perpetual keeps printing daily bars, so its weekend moves come from trading in the contract alone.
Bottom Line on the Broadcom Price Analysis
AVGO's November jump was big, but it didn't end the downtrend. It ran with its group, third of the nine chip-stock perpetuals listed on Phemex, and still finished under both of its averages.
The test that matters is a close above about $344, and Broadcom's 9 December results could deliver one. One strong session moved Broadcom with the chip pack, and a return to the June high would take a run of them.
