Broadcom Preparing For A Buildout -- August 21, 2026

Locator: 51515AVGO.

Anthropic growth rates: revenues growing at rate of one INTC business in seven months (INTC's one year revenues in seven months at Anthropic). And the rate is likely to be increasing. That's Anthropic. OpenAI is similar. Broadcom and OpenAI are joined at the hip.

Broadcom: the buildout story is becoming the big story for today. Big Sky One and Big Sky Two. 

The initial $35-billion tranche has been raised to $60-billion and behind the scenes numbers above $70-billion are being discussed.
