Broadcom reported record quarterly revenue driven by a 143% surge in AI silicon sales and secured major gigawatt-scale XPU deals with Google, OpenAI, and Meta.
verdict FRESH, direction bullish -> long AVGO (earnings: Broadcom reported record quarterly revenue driven by a 143% surge in AI silicon sales and secured major gigawatt-scale XPU deals with Google, OpenAI, and Meta.) [skipped: duplicate theme — already holding S1 long AVGO exiting 2026-08-20] → close -0.65%
overnight drift: long AVGO at close, exit next close (earnings: Broadcom reported record quarterly revenue driven by a 143% surge in AI silicon sales and secured major gigawatt-scale XPU deals with Google, OpenAI, and Meta.)
Signal: Right — the long call on the AI-driven earnings news played out; the position was barely ever underwater (worst -0.39%). Timing: Fine — only +0.82% of the move had occurred by entry, so the trade wasn't chasing an already-completed pop. Exit: This is the dominant failure — the trade captured just +1.21% (+$8.80) against a peak unrealized gain of +6.25%, meaning the mechanical next-close exit surrendered roughly four-fifths of the available move. The data doesn't show when the peak occurred intraday, but the gap between realized and best unrealized makes exit the clear weak link here.
📖 Glossary

S2 counterparty — trades the inferred counterparty ticker (weakest signal, LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
S3 peer — trades an inferred peer ticker (also LLM-inferred sympathy); exits at the same day's close.
S4 overnight — holds the primary ticker from today's close to the NEXT day's close.
Verdicts are decided top-to-bottom, first match wins; REPRICING is also the fallback when nothing else matches (2026-08-08 #220).
UNKNOWN — a needed price input (move since close or move in the last 30m) is missing.
PRICED — |move since previous close| ≥ 2.0%: already reflected in price.
REPRICING — |move in the last 30m| ≥ 0.5%: the tape is actively moving on it. Also covers a quieter move — |move since previous close| in [1.0, 2.0) with a quiet last-30m tape: still developing, not yet priced.
FRESH — |move since previous close| < 1.0%: a genuinely new move.
materiality — how market-moving the story was judged, 0-100 — alerts require materiality ≥ 60.
