12. Broadcom Inc. (NASDAQ:AVGO)

Broadcom Inc., like any other chipmaker, benefited from the growing demand for AI tools and programs.

During the past 52 weeks, shares of the company have grown by 119.94 percent, while its five-year stock price marked a whopping 690.14 percent jump.

Broadcom continues to be a leader in the AI ASCI and networking chips market. It has ongoing deals with Alphabet and Meta in addition to many other technology giants aiming to massively spend on AI hyperscaling.

Despite booking a whopping $58 billion in net debt, which is relatively high, analysts remained positive about the company’s prospects, placing positive earnings bets of as much as 20 percent for the firm beginning the first quarter of 2025.

Analysts, however, noted that the market will not be kind to Broadcom’s stocks when its revenue growth rate slows.
