According to @StockMKTNewz, Broadcom (AVGO) now has a larger market capitalization than Meta Platforms (META) as of Jan 3, 2026, highlighting AVGO’s continued ascent among mega-cap AI beneficiaries (Source: @StockMKTNewz). Despite this, the Magnificent 7 is a rules-defined basket—AAPL, MSFT, GOOGL, AMZN, NVDA, META, TSLA—set by index providers and ETF sponsors, so inclusion does not change automatically with market-cap rankings (Source: S&P Dow Jones Indices Magnificent 7 Index methodology; Roundhill Investments MAGS ETF materials). AVGO’s AI-driven fundamentals remain strong, with management previously guiding over $10 billion in AI-related revenue for FY2024, underscoring sustained data center demand that can support relative strength versus peers (Source: Broadcom Investor Relations guidance). Flow-wise, Mag-7-specific products are unlikely to add AVGO without rule changes, while broad cap-weighted benchmarks like the S&P 500 and Nasdaq-100 already reflect its size increase, affecting passive allocation and pair-trade dynamics with META (Source: S&P Dow Jones Indices; Nasdaq Indexes; Roundhill Investments). For crypto, periods of mega-cap tech leadership have coincided with risk-on behavior and a positive BTC–Nasdaq correlation in 2023–2024, so continued AI-equity momentum may bolster BTC sentiment even if AVGO remains outside Mag-7 products (Source: Coinbase Institutional Research; Kaiko Research).
