Broadcom has agreed to lend Anthropic up to $42 billion to finance infrastructure spending, according to the AI company's IPO filing. The convertible debt could fund roughly a third of Anthropic's $125.2 billion commitment for a five-year lease of tensor processing unit computing capacity. Anthropic is expected to become Broadcom's largest customer in its chip design business next year. The arrangement mirrors strategies used by Nvidia, which has leveraged its balance sheet to boost chip sales. The filing disclosed potential conflicts of interest, as Broadcom's dual role as hardware supplier and financing partner could affect Anthropic's access to computing power. Broadcom projects AI semiconductor revenue of approximately $115 billion in fiscal 2027 and $230 billion in fiscal 2028. The financing arrangement allows Broadcom to designate a financing partner, and the debt could convert into Anthropic shares.
Cathie Wood's ARK Invest sold $110 million worth of Advanced Micro Devices shares whilst purchasing $81.04 million of Nvidia and $25.56 million of Broadcom. This follows a similar transaction on 28 August, when ARK sold $74.5 million of AMD and bought $55.6 million of Nvidia and $20.5 million of Broadcom. The moves come as AMD recently acquired Fei-Fei Li's AI business World Labs for $8.2 billion in shares. Meanwhile, Nvidia reported fiscal second-quarter sales rising 106% to $96.22 billion and added $150 billion to its share-repurchase authorisation. Broadcom's fiscal third-quarter AI revenue rose 221% to $16.7 billion, with the company forecasting fiscal 2027 AI sales to exceed $115 billion. ARK has not explained the AMD sales.
Avago Technologies to Acquire LSI Corporation for $6.6 Billion in Cash
Broadcom and Toppan Holdings have inaugurated Singapore's first advanced chip substrate facility, finishing construction months ahead of schedule. The plant, which opened on Tuesday, represents Singapore's effort to bolster its position in the global artificial intelligence supply chain. The facility marks a significant development in Singapore's semiconductor manufacturing capabilities, bringing advanced substrate production to the Southeast Asian nation for the first time. Advanced chip substrates are critical components that connect semiconductors to circuit boards and enable high-performance computing applications essential for AI technologies.
The US government's push for an "AI Force" and dedicated AI leadership is reshaping investment flows toward companies exposed to federal defense and AI infrastructure spending. The policy shift spotlights chip makers, cloud providers, and contractors capable of meeting federal demand. Nvidia stands as the clearest play on this theme. Its GPUs, networking equipment, and software already support federal and defense AI workloads. The company's data centre segment generates approximately $275.4 billion in revenue, though analysts warn that competition to its CUDA platform could threaten its market position. Broadcom offers another route into federal AI infrastructure. The firm supplies custom chips, networking hardware, and private cloud software to both commercial hyperscalers and government buyers. It generates roughly $59.4 billion from semiconductor solutions and $29.7 billion from infrastructure software, with a market capitalisation near $1.71 trillion.
