The AI buildout is accelerating in 2026, and we see it is getting difficult to track what is being deployed, by whom, for what usage, with what financing, and on what underlying business model. As GTC approaches, we address all these questions in a series of one-sliders. Today we look at how rising AI infrastructure capex translates into sustained cloud revenues growth, and who will consume how much cloud services by the end of the decade.
Again, we see higher pricing/utilization as clear positive for all mature foundry participants (though of the companies in our coverage universe, UMC likely sees more immediate benefit given it isn't as focused on specialty materials). At the same time, we also remain somewhat nervous around the su

The AI buildout is accelerating in 2026, and we see it is getting difficult to track what is being deployed, by whom, for what usage, with what financing, and on what underlying business model. As GTC approaches, we address all these questions in a series of one-sliders. Today, we look at what returns hyperscalers generate on AI investments today and how these could improve over time once the "tail effect" kicks in.

We have added a lot of new analysis to our quarterly AI Capex update for GOOGL, AMZN and META including: 1) Annual gigawatt (GW) additions and installed capacity; 2) GW breakouts for AWS and GCP, as well as AI vs non-AI, and 3) A new timing delay factor for GPU components to improve installed base estimates.

As GTC approaches, we address all these questions in a series of one-sliders. Today, we look at what we call the tail effect: How ROIC underestimates the actual return on AI infrastructure over the full useful life of chips.
