Morgan Stanley just raised their 2027 AI capex forecast to $1.1 trillion and that number still doesn't include SpaceX or a lot of the other AI companies (Save this). When you factor those in, the real 2027 figure is probably closer to $1.5 trillion and AI lab inference revenue combined is tracking toward $300 billion in 2027. On its surface that ratio sounds alarming, spending $1.5 trillion in capex to generate $300 billion in revenue. But the framing collapses the moment you examine two things the bears consistently ignore, gross margins and the revenue trajectory. Gross margins on inference revenue are running at 60 to 70 percent. That means the $300 billion in inference revenue generates $180 to $210 billion in gross profit and that number compounds rapidly as utilization scales on infrastructure that is already built and paid for. The Capex is not being deployed against today's revenue but rather being deployed against a revenue trajectory that has shown no signs of decelerating. To understand how aggressive that trajectory actually is, consider that Morgan Stanley's $1.1 trillion hyperscaler forecast is nearly double what analysts projected for the same year just twelve months ago And they described the demand as inelastic, meaning it is not slowing down regardless of rising costs, tighter financing conditions or geopolitical risk. The AI industry ended 2025 tracking well over $200 billion in combined inference revenue and the growth rate since then has continued to accelerate rather than flatten. Anthropic alone scaled from negligible revenue to a $30 billion annualized run rate in approximately 18 months while OpenAI is tracking toward $280 billion in annual revenue by 2030 from $13 billion in 2025. There is also a structural reality in the capex number that the bears never account for. Roughly 35 percent of total AI spending goes toward training, building the next model generation which is not revenue-generating in the current period. That means only about 65 percent of the $1.5 trillion in capex is actually deployed against the inference infrastructure that earns revenue today. When you apply the 60 to 70 percent gross margin to the revenue that sits on top of that 65 percent figure, the economics look substantially better than the headline capex to revenue ratio implies. Every CEO who has been closest to this buildout has consistently underestimated it and Jensen Huang projected $1 trillion in AI capex two years ago and was called delusional. Dario Amodei said in early 2026 that AI revenues would reach the low hundreds of billions by 2028 and trillions before 2030 and given where Anthropic's own revenue trajectory is today, he is likely revising those numbers upward. The pattern here is consistent, every time someone models the revenue ceiling, the actual number breaks through it faster than expected. Come join Milk Road Pro for our full breakdown, the real unit economics of the AI inference buildout, how the capex to revenue ratio evolves over the next three years, and our entire AI thesis!

Jonathan Ross just revealed why AI companies arenโ€™t growing faster. Not demand. Not competition. Physics. Ross: โ€œThe demand for compute is insatiable.โ€ There isnโ€™t enough compute in the world. Not a temporary shortage. A fundamental gap between what the market wants and what the infrastructure can deliver. Ross: โ€œRight now, one of the biggest complaints of Anthropic is the rate limits. People canโ€™t get enough tokens.โ€ Rate limits arenโ€™t product decisions. Theyโ€™re rationing. Companies forced to regulate access because infrastructure cannot meet demand. Slower services. Token caps. The only things standing between these companies and a revenue surge they canโ€™t access. Every token cap is a revenue cap. Every slowdown is a sale that didnโ€™t happen. Ross: โ€œIf Anthropic was given twice the inference compute, within one month their revenue would almost double.โ€ Read that again. Double the compute. Double the revenue. Within thirty days. Thatโ€™s not a growth projection. Thatโ€™s a measurement of how deep the backlog already is. The demand exists right now. Itโ€™s sitting in a queue. The only thing between these companies and that revenue is physical hardware they donโ€™t have. This breaks every assumption about how tech companies scale. Usually you scale by finding customers. AI companies have infinite customers. They scale by finding hardware. The constraint isnโ€™t market fit. It isnโ€™t distribution. It isnโ€™t competition. Itโ€™s processing power. This is why Jensen Huang is the most important person in the world right now. NVIDIA doesnโ€™t just make chips. It makes the thing every government, every AI lab, and every company racing for this future needs more of and canโ€™t get enough of. The compute bottleneck isnโ€™t a tech industry problem. Itโ€™s a civilizational one. The winner of this era isnโ€™t determined by who builds the smartest model. Every major lab has a frontier model. The winner is whoever secures the most compute fastest while everyone else rations whatโ€™s left. The race isnโ€™t for intelligence. Itโ€™s for infrastructure. And right now there isnโ€™t enough to go around.

Greg Brockman, President of OpenAI, said there is not enough compute in the world to satisfy AI demand, and OpenAI itself cannot launch products it has already built because it cannot find the infrastructure to run them (Save this). OpenAI is spending $50 billion on compute in 2026 alone and it still is not enough. That is the setup but here is the trade. Nebius is one of the most asymmetric infrastructure plays in public markets right now, and most people have never heard of it. Q1 2026 revenue came in at $399 million, up 684% year over year, with AI cloud revenue specifically growing 841% in a single quarter. The company entered 2026 with an exit ARR of $1.25 billion and is targeting $7 to $9 billion by year end, a number that would make it one of the fastest revenue ramps in the history of public infrastructure companies. The contracted backlog sits at $50 billion anchored by a $17.4 billion agreement with Microsoft through 2031 and a $27 billion five-year deal with Meta. They are decade-scale infrastructure commitments from the two largest enterprise AI spenders on earth, signed before the demand curve has even reached its steepest point. Nvidia took a direct equity stake in Nebius, one of only two neoclouds it has invested in alongside CoreWeave. That relationship is not just financial but rather means Nebius gets preferential access to GPU allocation at a moment when every lab and every hyperscaler is competing for the same constrained supply. Contracted power capacity now exceeds 3.5 gigawatts, with expansion plans targeting 5 to 6 GW by mid-2029. And power is the other binding constraint in AI infrastructure, you cannot build a data center without it and Nebius has already secured the capacity that competitors are still fighting to acquire. At full ramp, analysts project revenue in the $15 to $25 billion range by 2029, against a current market cap the contracted backlog alone already dwarfs. Come join Milk Road Pro and get our full Nebius deep-dive, the exact price levels we are watching, how we are sizing the position against the backlog and power capacity timeline, and our full AI thesis. link below!

THIS IS ABSOLUTELY RIDICULOUS. OpenAI and Anthropic are losing money on every dollar they make. OpenAI generated $20 billion in revenue in 2025 and is projected to lose $14 billion in the same year. Internal forecasts project cumulative losses hitting $44 billion by 2028. The company's own CFO warned executives in April 2026 that OpenAI might struggle to finance upcoming computing deals if revenue growth slows. Anthropic reached $4.3 billion in annualized revenue in April 2026 against $19 billion in total costs. It spends $3 to make $1, and is not expected to stop burning cash until 2027. Now look at what these two companies have committed to spend. OpenAI and Anthropic together have committed $1.05 trillion in cloud spending to Microsoft, Oracle, Google and Amazon, making up 43 to 54% of each provider's entire future revenue backlog. - Microsoft: $627B total backlog. OpenAI and Anthropic account for 49%. - Oracle: $553B total backlog. OpenAI alone accounts for 54%. - Google: $467.6B total backlog. Anthropic accounts for 43%. - Amazon: $464B total backlog. OpenAI and Anthropic account for 51%. The entire cloud industry's future revenue is a bet on two companies losing billions every quarter. Microsoft, Alphabet, Meta and Amazon are collectively expected to spend $725 billion in capex in 2026, almost entirely on AI infrastructure. Combined hyperscaler capex from 2025 to 2027 is projected at $1.15 trillion, more than double what was spent from 2022 to 2024. What is the return on all of this? McKinsey's 2025 State of AI survey found that only a minority of companies reported AI meaningfully increased revenue or reduced costs. Enterprise generative AI spending grew from $1.7 billion in 2023 to $37 billion in 2025 and most CIOs still describe their initiatives as pilots without clear ROI metrics. Microsoft's AI business is running at a $37 billion annual revenue run rate with 123% year over year growth. That sounds impressive until you realize most of the capex funding is justified by expected future AI revenue rather than current AI profit. The internet burned money for years before it became the most profitable industry in history. But right now $1 trillion in committed cloud spend, $725 billion in annual capex, two loss-making customers making up half of every major cloud provider's revenue backlog, and the enterprises writing the checks cannot tell you if any of it is working.

The CEO of Anthropic just said we are 1 to 3 years away from AGI. On camera. With 90% confidence. Almost nobody watched it. INSTEAD OF ARGUING ABOUT AI TAKING JOBS. Spend 2 hours watching the CEO of Anthropic explain exactly when and how it happens. The AI compute arms race just got a reality check nobody expected. Dario Amodei, CEO of Anthropic just did the math out loud: โ†’ Revenue growing 10x per year means $100B by end of 2026 and $1T by end of 2027 โ†’ At that trajectory you could theoretically buy $5T in compute over 5 years โ†’ But if revenue comes in at even $800B instead of $1T, bankruptcy. No exceptions โ†’ And if growth slows from 10x to just 5x per year, the entire model collapses by one year This is the most honest thing anyone in AI has said publicly in years. The companies building AI infrastructure are making trillion-dollar bets on growth curves that have never existed before in history. One year off. One multiplier wrong. The whole thing unravels. The AI compute boom is real. The risk underneath it is equally real. The question is not whether AI is the future. It is whether anyone can survive long enough to get there

Nebius is one of the most undervalued AI infrastructure companies in the public markets right now (Save this). Leopold Aschenbrenner, the former OpenAI researcher who wrote the 165-page essay predicting AGI within this decade and then launched the $13.7 billion Situational Awareness Fund around that thesis just filed a 13G disclosing a 5.6% stake in Nebius, representing 12.41 million Class A shares. This is the man whose entire investment framework is built on one core conviction, AI will advance faster than anyone expects, and the binding constraint will not be algorithms or model architectures, it will be physical computing infrastructure, data center capacity, and energy. Now look at what Nebius actually is and why this conviction is justified by the numbers alone. Nebius is a GPU native AI cloud platform, a neocloud built from the ground up specifically for AI training and inference workloads, founded by Arkady Volozh, the former CEO of Yandex who divested all non-Russian assets and left Russia in direct opposition to Putin before relisting the company on Nasdaq. In Q1 2026, Nebius reported $399 million in revenue, a 684% increase year over year from just $50.9 million while also delivering EBITDA and adjusted EPS that beat consensus estimates by 43% and 50% respectively, in a quarter where analysts had already built in aggressive assumptions. The scale of the infrastructure buildout is what makes the valuation argument so compelling. Nebius has raised its contracted power capacity guidance to over 4 gigawatts for 2026, with a target of 5 gigawatts of AI computing capacity deployed by 2030, including multiple gigawatt-scale AI factories across the United States and Europe. The Finland campus coming soon to Lappeenranta will be 310 megawatts powered by low-carbon energy, making it one of the largest AI data centers in Europe, specifically located in a cold-climate, energy-stable region that dramatically reduces cooling costs and carbon intensity. The 2026 capacity is already effectively sold out according to management disclosures, which means every megawatt Nebius brings online has a revenue contract attached to it before the facility opens. The strategic backing validates the thesis at every level. NVIDIA committed a $2 billion strategic investment in Nebius by 2030, with the two companies co-developing an inference stack, implementing NVIDIA's GPU health monitoring systems, and deploying next-generation architectures including Rubin GPUs, Vera CPUs, and Bluefield storage systems meaning Nebius gets preferential access to the hardware that every other AI company is begging Jensen Huang for. Meta signed a $27 billion agreement with Nebius, with $12 billion in dedicated computing resources confirmed and up to $15 billion in additional capacity over the coming years. And Nebius just partnered with Bloom Energy on a $2.6 billion deal guaranteeing 328 megawatts of installed capacity through modular fuel cell systems behind the meter power that eliminates grid dependency and accelerates deployment timelines. The forward valuation math is where the undervaluation case becomes undeniable. Nebius is pricing in $3.5 billion in revenue for 2026 and $11 billion for 2027, which puts the forward price-to-sales ratio at 16.6 times for this year and just 5.3 times for next year for a company growing revenue at 684% year over year with sold out capacity, NVIDIA backing, a $27 billion Meta contract, and a path to 4+ gigawatts of contracted power. Milk Road has been positioned in Nebius and we believe the convergence of Leopold's conviction stake, NVIDIA's $2 billion endorsement, Meta's $27 billion commitment, and a physical infrastructure buildout that is sold out before it opens represents one of the highest-quality risk-reward setups in AI infrastructure today.

Jensen Huang just admitted the biggest AI labs can't borrow money like normal companies. So Nvidia signs for them, and they spend it on Nvidia chips. Nvidia reported Wednesday and the numbers are absurd: Revenue of $96.2 billion, up 106%, with net income of $59.7 billion, the most profitable quarter any public company has EVER posted. And Huang just told Fox Business that every chip Nvidia can make next year is already sold. Here's why this matters the most: Huang wrote this himself about his own customers: "Frontier AI labs have extraordinary demand for training and inference compute, but many are growing faster than their balance sheets and long-term credit profiles can support." Then: They "still lack the decades-long infrastructure contracts and investment-grade financing capacity needed to secure the AI factory infrastructure independently." Put simply: His customers can't get the loans. So Nvidia signs for them. There's a compute campus going up in Ohio with OpenAI as the tenant. Nvidia has tied roughly $105 billion in commitments to it. OpenAI's existing and planned commitments now come to about 12 gigawatts of Nvidia compute. CFO Colette Kress told analysts Nvidia will also provide selective credit enhancement for nearly 2 gigawatts of compute at a second frontier lab. She wouldn't say which one. Nvidia put up to $10 billion into Anthropic in November at a valuation near $350 billion, and Anthropic agreed to buy up to a gigawatt of Grace Blackwell and Vera Rubin systems in the same deal. And Nvidia isn't only guaranteeing these companies. It OWNS pieces of them. This week's filing shows $18 billion committed to equity investments for the rest of the fiscal year, and $47.9 billion already sitting in private companies as of late July. Now here's where it gets really insane: Last week, Huang sat on a CNBC set surrounded by six of Wall Street's biggest firms. Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR. They signed a memorandum to mobilise up to $500 billion in outside capital for AI data centres. Nvidia kept the option to backstop up to a quarter of those deals. And Huang used that stage to announce that Nvidia GPUs are now an asset class. Pension and credit funds can now lend against graphics cards the way they lend against office towers. Kress saw the accusation coming and got ahead of it on the earnings call: "We recognise the scale of this support, and we know some will call this circular financing. We see it differently." But look at the two things Huang says about the same companies. On the earnings call he said AI has hit its inflection point, that the tokens are productive and profitable, and that compute is now revenue. But he also said those same labs can't secure investment-grade financing on their own. A business that's inflecting into profit is exactly the business a bank lends to. Banks lend against cash flow every day. But Nvidiaโ€˜s guarantee exists because something in that first story isn't landing with the people whose job is pricing risk. Kress does have a real answer to this though. She said the second lab's credit support only complements capacity it already secured on its own, without Nvidia backing it. Vendor financing is also old and legal. Cisco did it and GE built a finance arm on it. Huang's case is that Nvidia understands these businesses better than any lender could, and he says the risk is low and his only regret is not investing more and sooner. He may be completely right. But one thing is certain: Nvidia guarantees the paper. The paper buys the chips. Nvidia books the sale. Then Nvidia tells you the order book is full for a year. That order book is the entire argument for a $5 trillion company. And Jensen Huang just explained, in his own words, that his customers couldn't have written those orders without him. Isnโ€™t this suspicious?

Jensen Huang just admitted the biggest AI labs can't borrow money like normal companies. So Nvidia signs for them, and they spend it on Nvidia chips. Nvidia reported Wednesday and the numbers are absurd: Revenue of $96.2 billion, up 106%, with net income of $59.7 billion, the most profitable quarter any public company has EVER posted. And Huang just told Fox Business that every chip Nvidia can make next year is already sold. Here's why this matters the most: Huang wrote this himself about his own customers: "Frontier AI labs have extraordinary demand for training and inference compute, but many are growing faster than their balance sheets and long-term credit profiles can support." Then: They "still lack the decades-long infrastructure contracts and investment-grade financing capacity needed to secure the AI factory infrastructure independently." Put simply: His customers can't get the loans. So Nvidia signs for them. There's a compute campus going up in Ohio with OpenAI as the tenant. Nvidia has tied roughly $105 billion in commitments to it. OpenAI's existing and planned commitments now come to about 12 gigawatts of Nvidia compute. CFO Colette Kress told analysts Nvidia will also provide selective credit enhancement for nearly 2 gigawatts of compute at a second frontier lab. She wouldn't say which one. Nvidia put up to $10 billion into Anthropic in November at a valuation near $350 billion, and Anthropic agreed to buy up to a gigawatt of Grace Blackwell and Vera Rubin systems in the same deal. And Nvidia isn't only guaranteeing these companies. It OWNS pieces of them. This week's filing shows $18 billion committed to equity investments for the rest of the fiscal year, and $47.9 billion already sitting in private companies as of late July. Now here's where it gets really insane: Last week, Huang sat on a CNBC set surrounded by six of Wall Street's biggest firms. Apollo, BlackRock, Blackstone, Brookfield, Goldman Sachs and KKR. They signed a memorandum to mobilise up to $500 billion in outside capital for AI data centres. Nvidia kept the option to backstop up to a quarter of those deals.

Nvidia is pulling off the most sophisticated financial loop in tech history. They invested $40 BILLION in its own customers in just 5 months. Here's why this could blow up the entire AI economy: Nvidia generated $97 billion in free cash flow last year. Instead of sitting on it, Jensen started writing checks to every company in the AI supply chain. Not small checks. We're talking about billions at a time. And almost every single one of those companies turns around and spends that money on Nvidia chips. Follow the money: $30 billion into OpenAI. OpenAI is one of Nvidia's largest GPU customers and spends billions annually on Nvidia hardware through cloud providers. $2 billion into CoreWeave, a company that exists exclusively to rent out data centers full of Nvidia GPUs. $2 billion into Marvell for silicon photonics that connects Nvidia systems. $2 billion into Lumentum for optical tech that powers Nvidia data centers. $2 billion into Coherent for the same thing. $2 billion into Nebius, an AI cloud company deploying Nvidia infrastructure. $3.2 billion into Corning, the glassmaker building three new US factories specifically to make fiber optic cables for Nvidia's next-gen systems. $2.1 billion into IREN, a data center operator that just agreed to deploy 5 gigawatts of Nvidia-designed infrastructure. And the list goes on. Every single recipient either buys Nvidia chips directly, builds infrastructure that runs on Nvidia chips, or manufactures components that go inside Nvidia systems. Matthew Bryson, an analyst at Wedbush Securities, said in a research note that Nvidia's dealmaking fits "squarely into the circular investment theme." Bloomberg even published an entire interactive feature this week titled "AI Circular Deals: How Microsoft, OpenAI and Nvidia Keep Paying Each Other." The piece maps how capital flows between the same handful of companies and gets counted as revenue multiple times along the way. But here's the part that makes this genuinely complicated: Nvidia's $5 billion investment in Intel from September is now worth over $25 billion. That's a 5x return in months. Their private company portfolio went from $3.4 billion to $22.3 billion on the balance sheet in a single year. They booked $8.9 billion in gains from equity investments alone. So when critics say "circular investing," Nvidia can point to Intel and say "we turned $5 billion into $25 billion, this is just smart capital deployment." And they're not wrong. Some of these bets ARE paying off like crazy. The real question is whether Nvidia is a chipmaker that happens to invest, or a venture fund that happens to sell chips. Because right now Jensen is doing both at a scale that has never existed in the semiconductor industry. No chipmaker in history has EVER invested $40 billion in its own ecosystem in five months. Last fiscal year Nvidia invested $17.5 billion in private companies. Their SEC filing literally says those investments include "AI model companies that purchase its products directly or through cloud service providers." They're saying it themselves: We invest in companies that buy our products. On Nvidia's last earnings call, Jensen told investors their investments are focused on "expanding and deepening our ecosystem reach." Translate that from CEO-speak and it means " we're funding the companies that fund us. The bull case says Nvidia is building an unbreakable moat by financing the entire AI supply chain and ensuring it all runs on Nvidia hardware. The bear case says this is the most elaborate circular revenue scheme since the subprime mortgage era and it all breaks apart the moment one domino falls. Both cases use the exact same evidence.

AMD CEO Lisa Su just doubled her own CPU forecast in 6 months and the reason is one word, agents (Save this). In November, she told investors the CPU market would grow 18-20% per year through 2030. she just revised that number : "That rate is doubling. The CPU market may be over $120 billion by 2030, growing at over 35%." And here's what changed, six months ago AMD modeled 1 CPU for every 4 to 8 GPUs in an AI data center and now the new ratio is closer to 1 to 1. Because agents aren't passive and they don't wait for a question. They work constantly on behalf of every employee, every customer, every process running inside an enterprise. Each of us could have 2, 3, even 5 or 10 agents running at the same time and that's not just more GPU compute but rather a completely different CPU demand curve that nobody had modeled at this scale. And the earnings backed it up. AMD posted $10.3 billion in revenue for Q1, up 38% year over year. Data center revenue hit $5.8 billion, up 57%, free cash flow tripled to a record $2.6 billion and Q2 guidance came in at $11.2 billion, 46% growth year-over-year. The Milk Road Pro portfolio was built around exactly this thesis, that agentic AI would create a massive, underappreciated CPU demand cycle that the market was sleeping on. That position is now up nearly 100%, if you want the full thesis, check out Milk Road Pro, link in bio.

This is WILD! One week before SpaceX's historic IPO, Google signed a deal to pay SpaceX $920 million per month from October 2026 through June 2029 for access to 110,000 Nvidia GPUs, CPUs, and related infrastructure (Save this). That is $11 billion per year and up to $30 billion over the life of the contract. This comes less than a month after Anthropic committed $1.25 billion per month for full access to the Colossus 1 data center in Memphis, 200,000+ GPUs, 300+ megawatts of power capacity, through 2029. Two of the most consequential AI labs in the world combined committed value over $70 billion. The question that haunted SpaceX's IPO roadshow was why did Elon keep spending billions constructing Colossus, Macro Hard and Macro Harder, three facilities totaling nearly 2 gigawatts of AI compute when xAI's revenue wasn't yet on the same trajectory as OpenAI or Anthropic? Wall Street was pricing in a risk that Elon was building capacity ahead of revenue which would mean sustained cash burn without a clear payback timeline. That concern was legitimate on its face, because xAI had been aggressive on model development but had not yet demonstrated the enterprise revenue numbers to justify the infrastructure cost. The answer is that the compute itself was always the product. Amazon has AWS, Microsoft has Azure, Google has Google Cloud, Elon just confirmed that he has been quietly building the fourth major hyperscale AI cloud and his first two paying customers are Google and Anthropic, the very companies most aggressively competing in the AI race. xAI's Colossus facility in Memphis was built at a speed that no traditional data center developer could match, it went from groundbreaking to operational in roughly 122 days. That is what happens when you have direct Nvidia relationships, a construction operation built around SpaceX-style execution, and a founder who treats infrastructure buildout the same way he treats rocket launches: compress every timeline and eliminate every bottleneck. The result is that SpaceX now has three operational facilities, Colossus, Macro Hard, and Macro Harder with Macro Hard and Macro Harder in Blackwell architecture running 1.2 gigawatts combined. Colossus 1, built on H100s and optimized for inference, is the facility that went to Anthropic first. The Blackwell-era facilities are where the next-generation training workloads happen and Google's deal suggests they are renting into that capacity as it comes online through the second half of 2026. Elon's compute leasing business would generate approximately $45 billion in incremental annual revenue on top of the mid-$20 billion range analysts had been modeling for SpaceX more than enough to fully subsidize the infrastructure investment and take the financial pressure off xAI delivering immediate AI product revenue. That changes the entire valuation conversation of SpaceX completely!

David Sacks just said what every honest analyst in Silicon Valley is already thinking (Save this). Nobody has ever seen anything like this. Anthropic has grown at 10x per year for three straight years and going into 2026, the conventional wisdom was that the rate of growth had to slow at this level of scale but then the numbers came in. Q1 alone is $10B ARR to $30B, in April, $30B to $44B and that's $96 million in new ARR added every single day. Inference margins are now above 70%, up from 38% last year and the only thing holding them back was compute. That's solved now, the SpaceX deal and others Anthropic has been quietly signing unlocks the supply side. This is exactly why we are bullish on Nebius and AMD. When a single company is adding nearly $100M in ARR per day, the real trade isn't the frontier lab but rather the infrastructure underneath it. Nebius, one of the fastest-growing neoclouds on the planet posted 547% YoY revenue growth in Q4 2025, exited the year with $1.25B ARR, and is guiding for $7โ€“9B ARR by year-end 2026. Their revenue backlog has reached $46B, with projections of $16B in revenue by 2028 and NVIDIA locked in a $2 billion stock buy agreement with them giving Nebius early access to cutting-edge chips while every other cloud scrambles for supply. AMD is the other side of the same coin. Data center revenue hit $5.78B in Q1, up 57% year-over-year with total company revenue at $10.25B, up 38%. Meta has committed to deploying up to 6 gigawatts of AMD Instinct GPUs. Data center GPU revenue is forecast to surge 114% year over year to $15B in 2026. MI400-series chips hit the market in H2 and analysts project segment operating margins climbing to 31% as the next generation ramps. The model is simple, Anthropic is printing revenue and that that revenue pays for compute. That compute flows through companies like Nebius and AMD. This is why Milk Road PRO remains bullish on them and our positions are up massively. Our analysts have broken down the full thesis, the allocations, and the price targets.

How could you possibly be bearish on compute right now? (Save this). Every 10 seconds in 2026, the world generates 31.7 billion tokens and by 2030, that number hits 1.27 trillion, every 10 seconds. That's a 40x increase and that's before the full agent economy comes online. The Qualcomm CEO said total token demand by 2030 is in the quintillions. Here's what most people miss because when you use ChatGPT, you generate tokens one conversation at a time but agents don't sleep. ] They run 24/7, spawning sub-agents, carrying context, updating memory, catching mistakes and every single one of those actions burns tokens. The shift from human paced to agent paced activity is the single biggest structural change in compute demand we've ever seen. You don't need a perfect forecast but rather just need to believe agents become persistent and if they do, compute demand goes vertical. The infrastructure has to be built before the demand fully arrives, which means the window to own the picks and shovels is right now. That's where neoclouds like Nebius come in. Nebius isn't trying to be AWS, it is a pure-play AI cloud, GPU clusters, inference infrastructure, and developer tooling built from scratch for AI workloads. Q1 2026 revenue hit $399M, up 684% year over year and they're guiding for $7โ€“$9 billion annualized run rate by end of 2026. Analysts are modeling roughly 2,000% total revenue growth from end of 2025 to end of 2027. They already have contracts with Microsoft and Meta already signed. Capex guidance raised to $20โ€“$25 billion because customer commitments justified it. They are sold out of capacity because the constraint isn't customers, it's how fast they can build. Adjusted EBITDA margin on the core AI business hit 45% in Q1 and Jensen Huang called Nebius a close partner at GTC 2026. And in a world where GPU access is the single biggest competitive moat, that relationship matters more than most people realize. The bear case on compute requires you to believe the agent economy stalls and that's a very lonely bet to make right now.

Chamath Palihapitiya just dropped the number that explains the entire AI infrastructure trade (Save this). A gigawatt of compute now costs $100 billion and when he started his Arizona data center project it was $4 to $5 billion, it has gone up 20x in a single investment cycle. The implication is not just that AI infrastructure is expensive but rather that the capital barrier to owning meaningful compute has become so high that only a handful of entities in the world can actually build it and the companies who got there early are sitting on what may be the most durable pricing power in the history of the technology industry. This is the neocloud trade. The neocloud market, purpose-built GPU cloud providers like CoreWeave, Nebius, and Lambda Labs was worth $35 billion in 2026 and is projected to reach $236 billion by 2031, compounding at 46% annually. For context, that is faster growth than cloud computing itself posted in its first decade. The reason is very simple, hyperscalers like AWS, Azure, and Google are building for everything, storage, databases, enterprise software, networking and their GPU pricing reflects the overhead of that full-stack infrastructure. Neoclouds build for one thing only, AI compute. The result is a 60% to 85% cost advantage on the same Nvidia silicon, bare metal H100s at $0.78 to $2.79 per GPU-hour on a neocloud versus $3.43 to $5.07 per GPU-hour on a hyperscaler. That spread does not close as AI demand scales but rather it widens, because hyperscalers have to amortize legacy infrastructure and margin expectations that neoclouds do not carry. Gartner projects that by 2030, neoclouds will capture 20% of the $267 billion AI cloud market, and Vultr's own analysis says at least 80% of GPU market share by end of 2026 will be held by a small group of scaled neocloud providers. Now zoom into Nebius specifically, because it is the most interesting publicly traded proxy for this trade. Nebius is the infrastructure arm of the former Yandex Russia's equivalent of Google rebuilt from the ground up after Russia's invasion of Ukraine by Arkady Volozh and relisted on Nasdaq in October 2024. The team that built it already knew how to run internet-scale infrastructure at the lowest possible cost, which is exactly the operational DNA a neocloud requires. In Q1 2026, Nebius reported revenue of $399 million and already generating serious cash on a young business with revenue growing nearly eightfold year-over-year. Then in March 2026, Meta signed a five-year infrastructure agreement with Nebius worth up to $27 billion, $12 billion in committed dedicated GPU capacity deployments beginning early 2027, plus up to $15 billion more tied to Meta purchasing Nebius's unsold third-party capacity. The deal will be executed on one of the first large-scale deployments of Nvidia's Vera Rubin platform, the next-generation architecture after Blackwell making Nebius one of a tiny number of operators in the world with confirmed priority access to the most advanced AI hardware available. Following the contract, Nebius guided to $7 to $9 billion in annualized recurring revenue for 2026 representing 540% year-over-year growth. Chamath Palihapitiya point about the $100 billion capital moat is the bear case for new entrants and the bull case for incumbents. No one can afford to build the next CoreWeave or Nebius from scratch at current hardware and power costs. The companies that are already built, already contracted, and already deploying Nvidia's latest silicon have a moat that compounds with every GPU generation cycle because they get allocations first, they deploy fastest, and their customers re-sign rather than wait for a new operator that does not yet exist.

Chamath Palihapitiya just dropped the number that explains the entire AI infrastructure trade (Save this). A gigawatt of compute now costs $100 billion and when he started his Arizona data center project it was $4 to $5 billion, it has gone up 20x in a single investment cycle. The implication is not just that AI infrastructure is expensive but rather that the capital barrier to owning meaningful compute has become so high that only a handful of entities in the world can actually build it and the companies who got there early are sitting on what may be the most durable pricing power in the history of the technology industry. This is the neocloud trade. The neocloud market, purpose-built GPU cloud providers like CoreWeave, Nebius, and Lambda Labs was worth $35 billion in 2026 and is projected to reach $236 billion by 2031, compounding at 46% annually. For context, that is faster growth than cloud computing itself posted in its first decade. The reason is very simple, hyperscalers like AWS, Azure, and Google are building for everything, storage, databases, enterprise software, networking and their GPU pricing reflects the overhead of that full-stack infrastructure. Neoclouds build for one thing only, AI compute. The result is a 60% to 85% cost advantage on the same Nvidia silicon, bare metal H100s at $0.78 to $2.79 per GPU-hour on a neocloud versus $3.43 to $5.07 per GPU-hour on a hyperscaler. That spread does not close as AI demand scales but rather it widens, because hyperscalers have to amortize legacy infrastructure and margin expectations that neoclouds do not carry. Gartner projects that by 2030, neoclouds will capture 20% of the $267 billion AI cloud market, and Vultr's own analysis says at least 80% of GPU market share by end of 2026 will be held by a small group of scaled neocloud providers. Now zoom into Nebius specifically, because it is the most interesting publicly traded proxy for this trade. Nebius is the infrastructure arm of the former Yandex Russia's equivalent of Google rebuilt from the ground up after Russia's invasion of Ukraine by Arkady Volozh and relisted on Nasdaq in October 2024. The team that built it already knew how to run internet-scale infrastructure at the lowest possible cost, which is exactly the operational DNA a neocloud requires. In Q1 2026, Nebius reported revenue of $399 million and already generating serious cash on a young business with revenue growing nearly eightfold year-over-year. Then in March 2026, Meta signed a five-year infrastructure agreement with Nebius worth up to $27 billion, $12 billion in committed dedicated GPU capacity deployments beginning early 2027, plus up to $15 billion more tied to Meta purchasing Nebius's unsold third-party capacity.

The market is watching xAI charge $50 billion per gigawatt and the rest of the neocloud sector run up is just getting started (Save this). According to Gavin Baker of Atreides Management, this is the most important number in AI infrastructure right now, xAI is monetizing compute at $50 billion per gigawatt on the Google deal, 2 to 3 times what any neocloud competitor charges. Google is paying $920 million per month for access to roughly 110,000 Nvidia GPUs through June 2029, and Anthropic is paying $1.25 billion per month for Colossus 1's 300 megawatts. Baker's point is simple that stop tracking rocket launches, stop tracking GPU orders, model gigawatt additions. At $50 billion per gigawatt, every new gigawatt that xAI energizes over the next 12 months is a revenue event that the market has not yet priced in. But this is not just an xAI story but rather why neocloud stocks are one of the most mispriced assets in the entire AI stack. Neoclouds charge $17 to $25 billion per gigawatt in contract value, a dramatic discount to xAI's pricing, but still an extraordinary business model when the underlying infrastructure costs $9 to $12 million per megawatt to operate and customers are signing 5-year locked contracts. H100 GPU-hours from neoclouds like Nebius at $2.95 per GPU-hour are 66% cheaper than hyperscaler rates, which is the structural reason enterprise AI teams are shifting spend to neoclouds at an accelerating pace. The neocloud market is projected to grow 69% annually through 2030 to reach nearly $180 billion and right now only a handful of public companies offer direct exposure to it. Nebius is the standout among the publicly traded neoclouds. It reported Q1 2026 AI cloud revenue of $399 million, an 841% increase year over year beating estimates, with its CEO stating that demand continues to exceed available capacity and customers are actively being turned away. Nebius commands a 20 to 25% revenue premium over peers thanks to its full-stack software offering, European sovereign positioning, and data residency advantages that physically prevent hyperscalers from competing for a large portion of its customer base. It has $49 billion in contracted backlog with Meta, Microsoft, and Nvidia meaning its revenue trajectory for the next three to five years is not a forecast, it is a schedule. The competitive moat is in power, permits, and speed exactly what xAI has proven is the true bottleneck. Jensen Huang said publicly that xAI deploys data centers faster than anyone else in the ecosystem, and Baker called out that this deployment speed advantage directly translates to monetization speed, every week of earlier energization at these pricing levels is worth hundreds of millions in revenue. Neoclouds with secured power, permits, and long-term customer contracts are not in a fair race against companies still waiting on grid connections and zoning approvals. The companies with the most locked in gigawatts coming online in 2026 and 2027 are about to have very good years.

Mark my words, Nebius will be the first Trillion dollar Neo-cloud company and here is why (Save this). Roman Chernin, CEO of Nebius just said on 20VC that Nebius raised prices and demand didn't move. When a company can raise prices and still have more demand than supply, that's the opportunity. Chernin also explained why he is deliberately not charging the maximum. As AI shifts from training, a one time cost to inference, which is the ongoing cost of serving every user and every query, compute pricing becomes the cost structure of the entire AI economy. If Nebius prices customers out, those customers cannot grow, and Nebius cannot grow with them. That is the compounding flywheel built directly into the revenue model. The numbers are already confirming it. Q1 2026 revenue came in at $399 million, up 684% year over year. The AI cloud segment grew 840% and represented 98% of total revenue. Adjusted EBITDA flipped positive to $129.5 million. And Nebius signed a long-term agreement with Meta worth up to $27 billion over five years, a hyperscaler outsourcing its own AI compute stack to a neocloud, which tells you that even companies with $50 billion capex budgets cannot build fast enough. Goldman Sachs says the consensus is underestimating 2027 hyperscaler capex by $500 billion. Every dollar hyperscalers cannot provision themselves flows to neoclouds like Nebius. As that gap widens, Nebius captures the overflow with 3 gigawatts of contracted power already secured and a CEO who just told you raising prices did not dent demand. Our subscribers are already up massively on Nebius and come join Milk Road Pro for our full breakdown, how to size Nebius against the broader neocloud opportunity, and our full AI thesis. Link below!

$TTMI TTM Technologies: The Strategic Nexus of AI and Defense Infrastructure. Investment Thesis. New: 6/22/26. TTM Technologies has moved well beyond its identity as a commodity circuit board manufacturer. The current business is increasingly defined by advanced interconnect solutions for AI server infrastructure and defense electronics โ€” two segments where technical complexity creates qualification barriers and customer switching costs that standard PCB suppliers cannot access. That repositioning is reflected in the financial results: record revenue and earnings forecasts validate that the mix shift is producing real margin improvement rather than just revenue growth. The defense backlog is the most durable component of the demand picture. A $1.6 billion backlog tied to programs like the F-35 and missile defense systems represents contracted, long-cycle revenue with a customer โ€” the U.S. government โ€” whose procurement commitments are structurally more stable than commercial technology spending. That backlog provides a financial foundation that makes the AI infrastructure growth story less binary than it would appear in isolation. AI server infrastructure is the higher-growth but less predictable demand driver. Interconnect complexity in AI server configurations is increasing as rack architectures evolve, which expands content per system and supports TTM's technical differentiation. The risk is that AI infrastructure spending is more cyclical and customer-concentrated than defense, and the technical requirements are evolving quickly enough that manufacturing capability needs to stay ahead of customer specifications on a shorter development cycle than defense programs typically demand. Capital expenditure intensity is the financial constraint that the demand environment doesn't resolve. Simultaneous investment in specialized U.S. and Malaysia facilities alongside European acquisitions represents a heavy parallel deployment of capital that requires each initiative to execute on schedule and at projected returns. Free cash flow conversion will lag revenue growth during this investment phase, and the degree of that lag โ€” and how quickly it normalizes โ€” is the primary financial metric the new CEO needs to demonstrate control over. Leadership transition is well-timed in one sense and risky in another. A technically focused CEO is the right profile for a company whose competitive differentiation rests on manufacturing process capability, but new leadership inheriting a rapid scaling program across multiple geographies introduces execution continuity risk at a moment when the capital deployment decisions being made now will define the return profile for years. The bottleneck supplier positioning is the right long-term frame. Advanced interconnect for AI and defense is not a commoditizing market, and TTM's manufacturing investments are building capability depth that takes time to replicate. Sustaining that technological edge as competition intensifies โ€” particularly from Asian manufacturers with lower cost structures โ€” is the strategic challenge that underlies every near-term financial metric.

Nebius will be a TRILLION dollar company and here is exactly why (Save this). Brad Gerstner's Altimeter just said on camera that they are invested in ClickHouse, and explained exactly why in one sentence: "If you're in the data infrastructure layer, then token consumption is driving a lot more consumption of your basic services." The flip side of that point is equally important. Gerstner added that the closer you are to a point solution, a single use app built on top of AI, "that feels like you're on the front of the conveyor belt heading toward the guillotine." Models get better, apps get commoditized and the companies that own the foundational infrastructure that every AI application must run through keep compounding. ClickHouse is exactly that foundational layer. It is a real time analytical database engine originally built inside Yandex, optimized for the exact query patterns that AI agents, LLM observability pipelines, and machine learning infrastructure generate, massive write volumes, complex aggregations, and sub-second response at scale. It processes hundreds of billions of rows per second, serves over 2,000 enterprise customers including Cloudflare, Uber and ByteDance, and grew 300% in a single year. In January 2026, a $400 million Series D valued ClickHouse at $15 billion more than double its $6 billion valuation just eight months prior. Here is where Nebius comes in. Nebius holds a 28% stake in ClickHouse, an asset that traces back to its Yandex origins. At ClickHouse's current $15 billion valuation, that stake is worth approximately $4.2 billion, sitting largely unrecognized on Nebius's balance sheet while most market coverage focuses entirely on the AI cloud business. A ClickHouse IPO, which the company is actively positioning toward, would force the market to mark that position to full public market value for the first time and could alone reprice Nebius meaningfully. But that hidden asset is just one layer of the bull case. The core AI cloud business just printed 684% year over year revenue growth, $399 million in Q1 2026 against $50 million a year prior. AI specific revenue grew 841% and now represents 98% of total revenue. The moat underneath those numbers is 3.5 gigawatts of secured power capacity, a $27 billion five year contract with Meta, a $2 billion strategic investment from Nvidia, and a Microsoft partnership ramping to full run rate in 2027, all stacked on top of a ClickHouse stake that the market is still not fully pricing in. Milk Road Pro remains massively bullish on Nebius, we called it early, we are up huge on the position, and we continue to track every development across AI infrastructure before it becomes obvious to the rest of the market.

Nebius will be a trillion dollar company (Save this). The neocloud market, purpose-built AI cloud infrastructure, separate from legacy hyperscalers generated roughly $25 billion in revenue in 2025, up 223% year over year. Synergy Research projects it will approach $400 billion by 2031, compounding at 58% annually one of the fastest sustained growth rates ever recorded for an infrastructure category of this scale. The CEO's explanation for why they win is worth understanding in detail. GPU compute is scarce and that part everyone knows but Nebius is not simply renting GPUs by the hour and marking them up, which is what most neocloud imitators do. They have built their own physical capacity for inference, optimized the full technology stack from the software layer all the way down to the rack hardware and recently acquired a company called Agen specifically to push inference latency even lower and throughput even higher. The CEO frames the core problem directly that in 2026, every product you build is powered by tokens, AI intelligence and while you can get those tokens from OpenAI or Anthropic via a simple API call, the moment you want to run open source models, specialized vertical models, or anything other than the two dominant frontier labs, you run into a wall. You can download the weights from Hugging Face and assemble the pieces. But getting those workloads to run at scale, at the economics you need, with the reliability your product requires, is an extraordinarily complex engineering challenge that most companies cannot staff or afford to solve in-house. That is the problem Nebius is solving, and that is why their inference product called Token Factory exists. The financial results are among the most dramatic growth numbers reported by any public company this year. In Q1 2026, Nebius posted $399 million in revenue, a 684% increase from the same quarter a year earlier. In the span of twelve months, the company swung from a $104 million net loss to $621 million in net income. Cash from operations went from negative $184 million to positive $2.26 billion in the same period meaning this is not growth funded by burning investor capital, it is growth that is now generating its own fuel. For the full year 2026, Nebius is guiding for an annualized revenue run rate of $7 billion to $9 billion, with pipeline creation tracking to surpass $4 billion. The contracted backlog sits at $49 billion, anchored by a $27 billion agreement with Meta, a deal worth up to $19.4 billion with Microsoft, and a public endorsement from Jensen Huang at NVIDIA's GTC conference in 2026. The current market cap is approximately $56 billion. A company with $7 to $9 billion in annualized revenue, growing at 684%, turning cash-flow positive, sitting on $49 billion in contracted backlog, operating in a market compounding at 58% annually toward $400 billion, that company has a credible path to 20x from its current valuation if execution holds. That is the trillion dollar case, and it does not require any heroic assumptions and it requires Nebius to keep doing what it is already demonstrably doing. Milk Road Pro called this one early. Our analysts added Nebius to the portfolio when it was still flying under the radar, and we are sitting on a massive gain on that position right now.

$GLW Corning: The AI Optical Infrastructure Springboard Strategy. Investment Thesis. New: 6/29/26. Corning has repositioned a traditional materials manufacturer into a critical supplier at the physical layer of AI infrastructure โ€” a transition that leverages decades of fiber optics and photonics expertise into a market where that expertise is now mission-critical rather than commoditized. High-density fiber and advanced photonics are the connectivity backbone that AI data centers require as networking bottlenecks become increasingly binding constraints on cluster performance, and Corning's manufacturing scale and materials science depth position it as one of the few suppliers capable of meeting that demand at the volumes hyperscalers require. The NVIDIA and Meta partnerships are significant validation points. Both represent demanding customers whose technical requirements and qualification standards are rigorous, and their direct engagement with Corning signals that the company's optical infrastructure capabilities are viewed as strategically necessary rather than substitutable. That kind of direct hyperscaler relationship is difficult for competitors to displace once established, given the integration depth required in data center network architecture planning. The Springboard strategy is the financial framework converting the AI infrastructure opportunity into demonstrated margin improvement. Operating margin expansion that has already materialized provides credibility to the more aggressive 2030 revenue growth targets โ€” this is not a purely forward-looking narrative but one with a track record of execution behind it. That said, the distance between current results and the 2030 targets is substantial, and the growth trajectory assumes continued AI infrastructure capital spending at a pace that has historically been difficult to sustain without periodic digestion phases. Capital intensity is the structural constraint on returns during the buildout phase. Scaling fiber and photonics manufacturing capacity to meet AI-driven demand requires sustained capital deployment, and the return on that investment depends on demand durability matching the capacity being built. Customer concentration compounds that risk โ€” significant revenue exposure to a small number of hyperscaler relationships means that any shift in AI infrastructure capital spending plans at a major customer would disproportionately affect Corning's growth trajectory relative to a more diversified customer base. The Solar business is a complicating factor that sits somewhat apart from the core AI optical infrastructure narrative. Scaling that segment successfully requires different operational capabilities and serves a different demand driver, and management attention split across a capital-intensive solar scale-up alongside the AI infrastructure buildout introduces execution complexity that pure-play AI infrastructure companies don't carry. The valuation reflects multiple years of anticipated growth, which means the premium is justified only if execution stays on pace with the Springboard targets and AI infrastructure capital spending remains robust through the multi-year buildout period the thesis depends on. Corning's market position is genuinely dominant in its core optical infrastructure niche โ€” the question is whether that dominance, expressed through a still-developing financial trajectory, supports a price that has already captured much of the anticipated upside.

$GLW Corning: The AI Optical Infrastructure Springboard Strategy. Investment Thesis. New: 6/29/26. Corning has repositioned a traditional materials manufacturer into a critical supplier at the physical layer of AI infrastructure โ€” a transition that leverages decades of fiber optics and photonics expertise into a market where that expertise is now mission-critical rather than commoditized. High-density fiber and advanced photonics are the connectivity backbone that AI data centers require as networking bottlenecks become increasingly binding constraints on cluster performance, and Corning's manufacturing scale and materials science depth position it as one of the few suppliers capable of meeting that demand at the volumes hyperscalers require. The NVIDIA and Meta partnerships are significant validation points. Both represent demanding customers whose technical requirements and qualification standards are rigorous, and their direct engagement with Corning signals that the company's optical infrastructure capabilities are viewed as strategically necessary rather than substitutable. That kind of direct hyperscaler relationship is difficult for competitors to displace once established, given the integration depth required in data center network architecture planning. The Springboard strategy is the financial framework converting the AI infrastructure opportunity into demonstrated margin improvement. Operating margin expansion that has already materialized provides credibility to the more aggressive 2030 revenue growth targets โ€” this is not a purely forward-looking narrative but one with a track record of execution behind it. That said, the distance between current results and the 2030 targets is substantial, and the growth trajectory assumes continued AI infrastructure capital spending at a pace that has historically been difficult to sustain without periodic digestion phases.

Nebius will be the first neocloud to hit $1 trillion dollar company and here is exactly why (Save this). As dylan patel says Jensen Huang absolutely hates a world where the hyperscalers have all the power. A world where Microsoft, Amazon, and Google are the only ones building compute is a world where Nvidia is slowly being squeezed by a handful of customers all simultaneously developing custom chips to replace Nvidia GPUs entirely. Google's TPU, Amazon's Trainium and Microsoft's Maia all exist for one reason, to cut Nvidia out of the stack and Jensen knows it so he is playing a long game most investors haven't registered yet. By funding NeoClouds and NeoLabs at scale, Jensen is deliberately engineering a multipolar compute world where no single hyperscaler can dictate terms and where Nvidia hardware remains the default infrastructure layer regardless of which model or platform ultimately wins. Nvidia has deployed roughly $40 billion in AI ecosystem investments across OpenAI, Anthropic, CoreWeave, Nebius, xAI, and dozens of infrastructure companies, all running almost exclusively on Nvidia chips, cementing GPU dependency across the entire AI stack.sedaily Every neocloud that survives and scales becomes a permanent Nvidia GPU customer structurally opposed to the hyperscalers building custom silicon expanding Nvidia's market while simultaneously weakening its biggest competitive threat. Dylan Patel described the neocloud ecosystem as throwing bait into the water and letting the best fish survive, warning that many heavily-backed teams will fail, but the ones that emerge will pull hundreds of millions in ARR right out of the gate. Nebius is that fish because it's the only neocloud operating at hyperscaler scale while remaining fully purpose-engineered for AI workloads from silicon to software. The numbers confirm Nebius has already cleared the survival bar that will eliminate most of the 200+ neoclouds competing right now. Revenue hit $399 million in Q1 2026, up 684% year-over-year, backed by $46 billion in contracted backlog, 3.5 GW of contracted power across seven site and a target of $7โ€“$9 billion in annualized revenue by year-end. When Google approached neoclouds about deploying TPUs, Nebius said no, its Chief Revenue Officer noting that demand is 99% for Nvidia GPUs and that TPU interest comes almost entirely from former Google employees rather than the actual market. That alignment with Nvidia's ecosystem, at this scale, with this backlog, and this level of strategic backing is why Nebius sits in a category of one among the neocloud field. Patel framed the broader play correctly, every neocloud that survives makes Google's TPU and Amazon's Trainium structurally weaker simply by existing and five years from now, the winners will have reshaped the entire compute landscape in Nvidia's favor. Nebius is already hundreds of millions in ARR ahead of the competition while most of the field is still treading water. Milk Road subscribers are already up massively on the Nebius trade, and we are tracking the neocloud buildout as Nvidia works to reshape the entire compute market.
