The cash portion of Avago Technologies Ltd.'s cash-and-stock takeover offer for rival chip maker Broadcom Corp. is $54.50 a share. So why did Broadcom's stock trade as high as $57.30 a share Friday before closing at $56.85, up 4% from the cash offer? Several reasons, analysts said, including speculation that perhaps another suitor might surface for Irvine-based Broadcom, a leading maker of semiconductors for smartphones, Internet systems and other products.
