Broadcom Added To Goldman Conviction Buy List; Shrs Rise

Goldman Sachs analyst James Schneider this morning added Buy-rated Broadcom (BRCM) to the firm’s Conviction Buy List. He has a $44 target on the stock, which closed last week at $35.74.

“We see an attractive entry point for a stock with multiple growth drivers around the theme of mobile data, at a time when market expectations (especially for Q4) remain very low and valuation is still attractive,” he writes in a research note.

Schneider sees three key drivers for the stock:

  • Increasing smart phone penetration.
  • Tablet growth, including cannibalization of notebooks.
  • The build-out of mobile data networks to support all of the additional devices.

BRCM this morning is up 71 cents, or 2%, to $36.45.
