Is Broadcom (AVGO) One of the Best Trending AI Stocks to Watch in 2026?

Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) is one of the best trending AI stocks to watch in 2026. Reuters reported on June 18 that Architect Labs announced that it has raised $24 million in seed funding to build a company that ​will employ AI to speed and ease the design ‌of custom chips. It further stated that Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO) and its rival Marvell help design custom AI and other general-purpose computing chips for cloud computing companies like Alphabet and Amazon, with the custom chips designed by the two companies generating tens of billions of dollars in revenue and offering an alternative to Nvidia's hardware.

Reuters stated that Architect Labs aims to make the process cheaper and faster, as it presently takes around two years and costs hundreds ​of millions of dollars in labor costs and research and development. Architect co-founder Ebrahim Hussain stated in an interview with Reuters that the biggest problem at present is "not necessarily the backend execution or the layout," but rather "their biggest thing is how can I take this workload that I want to deliver to the world, whether it be AI or robotics or anything ​like that, and ​how can I ⁠build the (chip) architecture."
