Broadcom crushes results

Broadcom (NASDAQ: BRCM) crushes and I still think it's the best chip name on the planet. But as stated yesterday, I was worried about muted guidance and BRCM talked margins down, while guiding rev's higher.

This morning the stock surged off its after-hours low last night and I'm not sure how it pushed down into the $24's. Frankly I wish I had been in front of my trading station at that time, even though it has drifted lower as the day has progressed.

Bottom line, post earnings I'm back to being a buyer on weakness and feel anything in the $25's is an excellent entry, long term and/or even shorter term.

Disclosure: Position in BRCM.
