I wrote about chip manufacturer Broadcom (Nasdaq: AVGO) back in January and at the time I pointed out the three rising valleys pattern the stock had formed. From the time I wrote about the stock through the high in February, the stock jumped 16.4%.
Flash forward to the last few days and we see that the three rising valleys have developed in to the lower rail of a trend channel and the stock just bounced off the lower rail.
We see that the daily stochastic readings had fallen in to oversold territory and they made a bullish crossover on March 11. We also saw a bullish crossover from the indicators back in January as the stock was taking off.
In addition to the bullish cross from the stochastics, the Tickeron AI Trend Prediction tool also generated a bullish signal on Broadcom on March 11. The signal showed a confidence level of 87% and past predictions have been accurate 65% of the time.
Broadcom has really strong fundamentals. The company has seen earnings grow by an average of 36% per year over the last three years and they grew by 27% in the most recent quarterly report. Sales have grown at an average annual rate of 47% per year and jumped by 12% in the most recent report.
In addition to the earnings and sales growth, the company’s management efficiency measurements are well above average. The return on equity is at 40% and the company boasts a profit margin of 47.8%.
