That said, Michelle notes Broadcom's strength in custom A.I. chips, something she sees giving it an edge over Nvidia's (NVDA) GPU business. Tom White offers an example options trade for Broadcom. ======== Schwab Network ========Empowering every investor and trader, every market day.Options involve risks and are not suitable for all investors.
