That was certainly the case when Broadcom (NASDAQ: AVGO) revealed in a filing that it extended its agreement with Alphabet (NASDAQ: GOOGL) (NASDAQ: GOOG) to develop and supply future generations of Alphabet's Tensor Processing Units (TPUs). On the surface, this may not seem like a big deal, as Alphabet and Broadcom have partnered on TPUs for more than a decade. However, the agreement just removed one of the biggest bearish arguments against Broadcom's stock. Broadcom and Alphabet have long been tied at the hip with TPUs, and it's become one of the biggest growth drivers for both companies. While there seemed to be little reason to mess with this mutually beneficial partnership, there was growing concern that Alphabet would eventually look to ditch Broadcom.

President Trump Faces Renewed Backlash As Trump-Linked Tokens Crash Authored by Vince Quill via CoinTelegraph.com, United States President Donald Trump is facing renewed scrutiny as crypto tokens and projects touted by the US president crash to all-time lows or sit near record low levels.
