Semiconductor Sell-Off: 1 AI Chip Stock to Buy, 1 to Hold, and 1 to Sell After Broadcom's Beat
Investing in the semiconductor space requires a nuanced approach.
Overview
After several years of massive gains, many key semiconductor companies sold off over the course of this past summer. Even though Broadcom's (NASDAQ: AVGO) earnings beat estimates in 2026's second quarter, management's revenue guidance disappointed investors who were already feeling broadly uncertain about the outlook for the chip sector.
Nonetheless, rapid top- and bottom-line growth and high valuations have driven Broadcom higher by almost 600% over the last five years. That has undoubtedly changed its investment thesis, and similar points apply to other chip stocks.

With all that in mind, here's one chipmaker investors should consider buying now, one they should hold, and one I think it's time to sell.
