Apple and Meta pivot to custom chips as Nvidia delays — long the alternatives
Created
Thesis
Apple's massive $30 billion deal with Broadcom for custom chips and Meta's successful deployment of its own AI silicon show that the largest tech companies are actively diversifying away from Nvidia's expensive ecosystem. Simultaneously, Yahoo Finance reports that a circuit board problem has delayed Nvidia's next AI system until 2028, creating a multi-year opening for competitors. This combination of Big Tech seeking cheaper alternatives and Nvidia stumbling in production creates a strong fundamental tailwind for alternative chip suppliers like Broadcom.
Strategy approach
Build a relative-strength rotation strategy. Enter long AVGO and META on the D1 timeframe when both stocks close green while NVDA closes red on the same day. Require AVGO to be trading within 5% of its 20-day high. Exit after 10 days or if AVGO drops 5% below its entry price.
