Broadcom published a press release today announcing the launch of its Brocade X Directors and Brocade G820 56-port switch. The company touted the new products as the tech industry's first 128G Fibre Channel platforms for AI workloads and said that its Brocade Gen 8 Fibre Channel delivers storage safeguards for the quantum era.
With recent debate about whether valuations for artificial intelligence (AI) companies have become overly inflated, Nvidia's Q3 report today has the potential to be a make-or-break moment for stocks in the category. At the moment, investors seem to be betting that the AI hardware leader will deliver another strong quarterly report.
While Nvidia provides the key graphics-processing-unit (GPU) hardware that powers advanced data centers, Broadcom provides connectivity chips and services that allow multiple processors to compute together in a server. As a result, good news for Nvidia is often treated as a positive indicator for Broadcom. Depending on how Nvidia's sales and earnings performance for Q3 and forward guidance comes in, Broadcom could see some big moves in tomorrow's trading.
