Broadcom Dividend History
Products

Broadcom's product line spans computer and telecommunication networking. The company has products for enterprise/metropolitan high-speed networks, as well as products for small-office, home-office networks. Products include transceiver and processor ICs for Ethernet and wireless Local Area Networks, cable modems, digital subscriber lines (DSL), servers, home networking devices (router, switches) and cellular phones. It's also known for a series of high-speed encryption co-processors, offloading this processor intensive work to a dedicated chip and speeding up tasks that utilize encryption. 

The company also produces ICs for carrier access equipment, audio/video processors for digital set-top boxes and digital video recorders, Bluetooth and Wi-Fi transceivers, and RF receivers and tuners for satellite TV. Major customers include Apple, Hewlett-Packard, Motorola, IBM, Dell, Asus, Lenovo, Linksys, Logitech, Nintendo, Nokia Siemens Networks, Nortel (Avaya), TiVo, Tenda, and Cisco Systems.

My Path Forward

I already own shares of Broadcom and expect to enhance that position going forward, even though the company has already moved higher. I believe there's more to this company in the future and that the price of the shares will move even higher. I think the stock in this company will hit $250 per share within the next year and even higher after that. Therefore it only makes sense add to this position.

    I am an Individual Investor with specific interest in long term growth and then enhancing my returns with income from dividends and derivatives. I don't recommend stocks to anyone (it's a good way to lose friends) and no one reading this should misinterpret my blog as a recommendation for any type of investment. I am writing this solely for myself and my kids.
