Velaga S. Ram Sell
President, ISG
8,000 shares
$2,964,178
@ $370.52
Significance 5/10

Velaga S. Ram (President, ISG) sold 8.0K shares of AVGO at $370.52 on 2026-04-10; current price $380.78, post-sale holdings 57.9K shares.

Velaga S. Ram sold 8,000 shares of Broadcom at $370.52 on 2026-04-10, reducing his holdings from 65.9K to 57.9K shares (-12.1% vs pre-transaction holdings), with a transaction value of $2,964,178.40. The stock currently trades at $380.78, approximately 3% above the sale price, and has rallied +18.2% over the past 30 days and +12.0% over 90 days while remaining -7.8% from its 52-week high of $412.97. Notably, this sale follows four other sales at AVGO within the prior week (on 2026-04-09, 2026-04-08, and twice on 2026-03-17), indicating a concentrated pattern of liquidation rather than an isolated transaction. The company's fundamentals remain robust with annual revenue growth of +23.9%, net income of $7.3B, and a market cap of $1,802.9B, though the P/E of 72.25 reflects elevated valuation expectations typical of the semiconductor sector.

Kawwas Charlie B Sell
President, SSG
10,000 shares
$3,452,270
@ $345.23
Significance 4/10

AVGO: President Kawwas sells 10,000 shares at $345.23; retains 787,184 shares post-transaction

Kawwas Charlie B, President of SSG at Broadcom, sold 10,000 shares (10.0K shares) for $3,452,270.00 on 2026-04-08, reducing his holdings by 1.3% to 787,184 shares. The sale occurred at $345.23, approximately 10.0% below the current price of $371.55 and well below the 52-week high of $412.97. His prior five trades at AVGO were all sales on 2026-03-17; outcomes for those transactions remain unmeasurable. Across his broader cross-ticker trading history, his 20 prior sells posted a 90-day well-timed rate of 100.00% with an average 90-day return of -4.1%, though this track record does not extend to prior AVGO outcomes, where no completed 90-day measurement period exists yet. The company shows strong fundamentals with revenue of $19,311,000,000.00 and net income of $7,349,000,000.00 in the latest quarter, though a P/E of 70.50 reflects elevated valuation relative to earnings.

Velaga S. Ram Sell
President, ISG
30,215 shares
$10,638,012
@ $352.08
Significance 5/10

Broadcom President Velaga S. Ram sells 30,215 shares in 2 transactions for $10,638,012.48, reducing holdings by 31.4%

Velaga S. Ram, President of ISG at Broadcom, executed 2 separate sales on April 8–9, 2026, totaling 30,215 shares for $10,638,012.48 at a blended average price of $352.08. The sales reduced his holdings from 96,147 shares to 65,932 shares, representing a -31.4% reduction. This is a material reduction in his personal stake in a $1,759.2B market-cap company trading at a P/E of 70.50 with strong recent fundamentals (revenue $19.3B, net income $7.3B, +23.9% annual revenue growth). The current stock price of $371.55 is 10.0% below the 52-week high of $412.97; the insider sold at prices $352.02–$352.12, which are below current levels. His cross-ticker track record shows 19 prior sells, though no timing outcomes are yet measurable for the 5 recent same-ticker transactions at AVGO. This large, discretionary reduction in executive equity exposure, in the context of Broadcom's elevated valuation and the insider's consistent pattern of selling, warrants attention to underlying confidence signals.

SAMUELI HENRY Sell
781,967 shares
$250,000,302
@ $319.71
Significance 8/10

Director Samueli sells 781,967 shares for $250.0M; stock down 27.2% from 52-week high, 5 prior AVGO sales all well-timed to 90d declines

Henry Samueli executed 16 separate sales totaling 781,967 shares for $250,000,301.60 at blended average price $319.71 on 2026-03-25, reducing his holdings by 2.5%. This occurs as AVGO stock trades 27.2% below its 52-week high of $412.97 and down 9.5% over the prior 30 days. Notably, Samueli's 5 prior sales at AVGO (all on 2025-12-08) showed a 100% well-timed rate at the 90-day mark, with each sale followed by 90-day declines ranging from -17.0% to -18.8%. The current 30-day decline of -9.5% aligns with this pattern, suggesting the insider's trading decisions at this ticker have consistently preceded downward price movements.

Brazeal Mark David Sell
Chief Legal & Corp Affairs Ofc
83,682 shares
$27,061,694
@ $323.39
Significance 7/10

Chief Legal Officer Brazeal sold 83,682 shares (23.1% of holdings) for $27.1M across 19 transactions at AVGO on Mar 16-17

Brazeal Mark David, Chief Legal & Corporate Affairs Officer, executed 19 separate sales totaling 83,682 shares for $27,061,693.75 on March 16-17, reducing his AVGO holdings from 361,823 shares to 278,141 shares—a 23.1% reduction of pre-transaction holdings. The sales were executed across a narrow price band ($317.97–$328.17) with a blended average of $323.39, while the stock currently trades at $315.93 (2.3% below transaction prices). Notably, his 5 prior trades at AVGO have shown consistent timing success: 2 of 2 prior sells were well-timed at the 90-day mark (returns of -5.7% and -2.4%), and his most recent sales on 2026-01-06 already show 30-day declines of -10.7% and -10.5%, continuing a pattern of sales executed ahead of downward price movement. This large, multi-day sale by a C-suite officer warrants attention as a potential signal of outlook or portfolio rebalancing at a senior level.

Spears Kirsten M. Sell
CFO & Chief Accounting Officer
60,154 shares
$19,452,716
@ $323.38
Significance 7/10

CFO Spears sold 60.2K shares ($19.5M) at $323.38 avg over two days; stock down 23.5% from 52-week high, 3 prior AVGO sales all negative at 90 days.

Kirsten Spears, CFO & Chief Accounting Officer, executed 18 separate sales totaling 60,154 shares for $19,452,715.82 on 2026-03-16 and 2026-03-17, reducing her position by 15.5% and leaving 327,760 shares. The blended average price was $323.38, while the current price is $315.93—a decline of 2.8% in the past 30 days and 4.2% in the past 90 days. Within her same-ticker history at AVGO, three prior sales on 2025-12-17 all showed negative 90-day returns (-4.0%, -6.9%, -3.1%), establishing a 100% well-timed rate at this ticker. Her cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells with a 90-day well-timed rate of 100.00%, indicating consistent execution timing on her sales across holdings. The scale of this liquidation—60.2K shares transacted—paired with her demonstrated timing pattern, merits close attention to post-sale price trajectory and any forward guidance shifts.

Kawwas Charlie B Sell
President, SSG
64,834 shares
$20,966,675
@ $323.39
Significance 7/10

Charlie B. Kawwas (President, SSG) sold 64,834 shares of AVGO for $20,966,674.53 over 2 days at blended $323.39

Charlie B. Kawwas executed 18 separate sales totaling 64,834 shares for $20,966,674.53 across March 16–17, 2026, reducing his holding from 139,460 shares to 74,626 shares (-46.5%). The transactions were executed across a range of prices from $317.97 to $328.70 with a blended average of $323.39. While the current price of $315.93 sits 23.5% below the 52-week high, this large liquidation occurs within a context where Kawwas's prior 5 sales at AVGO all proved well-timed at the 90-day mark (negative 90d returns following each sale), suggesting a pattern of selling ahead of downturns. The filing itself contains no FLAG indicating a scheduled 10b5-1 plan, meaning the timing and scale of this two-day liquidation represent discretionary decisions. At a P/E of 59.95, the broader valuation context merits attention to whether insider selling reflects confidence erosion at current multiples.

Velaga S. Ram Sell
President, ISG
64,379 shares
$20,819,103
@ $323.38
Significance 7/10

Broadcom President Ram sells 64.4K shares for $20.8M in 18 transactions, reducing stake 40.1% to 96.1K shares

Velaga S. Ram, President of ISG at Broadcom, executed 18 separate sales over two trading days (2026-03-16 and 2026-03-17) totaling 64,379 shares for $20,819,102.90 at a blended average price of $323.38. This represents a 40.1% reduction of his pre-transaction holdings from 160,526 shares to 96,147 shares. The stock currently trades at $315.93, down 2.8% over 30 days and 4.2% over 90 days, placing it 23.5% below its 52-week high of $412.97. The multi-tranche execution pattern across two consecutive trading days and the scale of the position reduction—divesting approximately two-fifths of holdings—suggest a deliberate liquidation. Despite the large absolute dollar value ($20.8M) and position reduction, the insider retains meaningful holdings (96.1K shares), indicating continued material ownership stake in the company.

Brazeal Mark David Sell
Chief Legal & Corp Affairs Ofc

$10,413,693
@ $347.12
Significance 6/10

Chief Legal & Corp Affairs Officer sells 30,000 AVGO shares for $10.4M; stock down 18.2% in 30 days

Brazeal Mark David, Chief Legal & Corporate Affairs Officer, executed two separate sales on 2026-01-06 totaling 30,000 shares for $10,413,692.52 at a blended average price of $347.12, reducing his holdings by 12.5% from 240,573 to 210,573 shares. The transaction occurred as AVGO has declined 18.2% over the prior 30 days and is trading 19.5% below its 52-week high of $412.97, though the stock remains up 2.4% over the 90-day period. The insider's cross-ticker track record shows 20 prior sells; his prior five AVGO trades (all sells in December 2025) remain unmeasurable in terms of 30- and 90-day outcomes. The sale is substantial in dollar terms ($10.4M) and represents a meaningful reduction in a significant holding, occurring during a period of notable price weakness relative to recent highs.

TAN HOCK E Sell
President and CEO
70,000 shares
$24,310,684
@ $347.30
Significance 7/10

Broadcom CEO Tan Hock E sells 70,000 shares for $24.3M; stock down 18.2% in 30 days, trading 19.5% below 52-week high

Tan Hock E, Broadcom's President and CEO, executed 3 separate sales totaling 70,000 shares for $24,310,684.42 on 2026-01-06, reducing his post-transaction holdings to 132.8K shares (a -34.5% reduction from 202.8K pre-transaction). The blended average sale price was $347.30, yet the current stock price is $332.48—11.8% below his transaction prices—indicating the stock has declined since he divested. The broader context shows significant downward momentum: Broadcom is down 18.2% over the past 30 days and trades 19.5% below its 52-week high of $412.97. Against this backdrop, his substantial sales of shares at prices near the recent peak merit attention, particularly given the stock's sharp recent deterioration. Although his cross-ticker track record shows modest historical timing success (14.29% well-timed rate across 20 prior sells, with an average 90-day return of +14.7%), his 5 prior trades at AVGO offer no measurable outcome data yet, leaving no established pattern at this specific ticker to reference.
