The next two months put $IREN's entire pivot on one milestone. Horizon 1, its first GB300 super cluster at Childress, is targeted to hand off to $MSFT in Q3, roughly July through September, the opening delivery under the five year, $9.7 billion Microsoft contract and the point where that contract starts turning into revenue. For a year the company has been buying the hard things. Power, land, financing. Now it has to turn them into delivered compute. That is the whole test. "The world is structurally short compute, and the bottleneck is delivered data center and GPU capacity," said Daniel Roberts, Co-Founder and Co-CEO of $IREN. Horizon 1 is him putting that to the proof. Capacity nobody can energize is worthless. Capacity handed to a hyperscaler on schedule is the business. The rest of the window fills in around it. The Mirantis acquisition, signed in May, is pending close and adds the software layer to run the fleet. $3.1 billion of ARR sits under contract against a $4.4 billion target, so there is room for another customer, and management is openly chasing one. The $3.65 billion GPU financing that closed June 1 already funds most of the $MSFT hardware, with $NVDA and $DELL on the supply side. Sweetwater 1, energized in May, keeps ramping power behind all of it. The full year FY2026 results that put real numbers on all of this land just past the window, late August into September. The catalysts here are operational first, reported second. What makes that timeline credible is the record behind it. $IREN hit 50 EH/s on the schedule it set, energized Sweetwater 1 on schedule, and has Horizon 1-4 tracking for year-end. This is a team that keeps turning secured power into online capacity on time, and each build makes the next one faster. How many names in this AI buildout are actually delivering capacity on schedule, not just announcing it? It's not a sprint, it's a marathon.

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.

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. Come join Milk Road Pro and get our full Nebius thesis including the exact framework we use to think about neocloud valuation, the power capacity math that determines when revenue accelerates, and every catalyst we are watching through 2027.

Nebius is going to be a Trillion-dollar company! Twelve months ago, Nebius was trading near $18 per share with roughly $55 million in quarterly revenue. Today the stock trades above $225, quarterly revenue just came in at $399 million, up 684% year over year and the company has a contracted revenue backlog that would make most Fortune 500 companies envious. But the current market cap, sitting around $56 billion, prices in almost none of what is actually coming. The first reason Nebius reaches a trillion is the Meta deal alone. In March, Nebius signed a five year agreement with Meta worth up to $27 billion, one of the largest infrastructure contracts Meta has ever signed with any company under which Nebius will provide $12 billion in dedicated AI capacity across multiple locations, with Meta also having committed to purchase up to an additional $15 billion in third-party capacity over the same period. That contract barely starts until 2027, which means the revenue impact is not yet reflected in any trailing metric. The second reason is Microsoft, which is currently receiving its first deployment phases from Nebius and is expected to contribute at full annual run rate starting in 2027. Between Meta and Microsoft alone, Nebius has signed agreements worth more than $46 billion in total contracted value before a single additional customer is counted. The third reason is the ARR trajectory, which is the fastest revenue ramp of any infrastructure company in the public markets. Nebius ended 2025 at $1.25 billion in ARR and is guiding to $7–9 billion ARR by year-end 2026. Wall Street analysts project revenue growing 523% in 2026 and another 206% in 2027. One of the company's own institutional shareholders has already suggested the year-end ARR could come in more than twice the guided range if the Meta and Microsoft ramps hit their timelines. The fourth reason is Nvidia's direct involvement. Nvidia made a $2 billion strategic equity investment in Nebius and has given Nebius early access to the Vera Rubin platform, its next generation GPU architecture as part of the delivery commitments to Meta. The fifth reason is the capacity buildout, which is being funded by the revenue itself. Nebius invested $2.5 billion in capex in Q1 alone, CEO Arkady Volozh has guided for $16–20 billion in total investment for 2026, and contracted capacity is now on track to exceed 4 GW by year end with new owned sites in Pennsylvania at 1.2 GW and Finland at 310 MW now under development. The more capacity they build, the more they can sell and demand continues to outpace supply at every stage of the buildout. When you run the math on a business with $7–9 billion in ARR exiting 2026, a $27 billion Meta contract that begins in earnest in 2027, a Microsoft relationship at full run rate, 206% analyst projected growth in 2027, and a structural relationship with Nvidia that gives it hardware access no competitor can match, a trillion-dollar valuation within three to four years is not a moonshot. It is the base case if the compounding holds, and every data point so far suggests it is. 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. If you want to see what else we are building conviction on before the rest of the market catches up, come join us at Milk Road Pro at the link in bio/below!

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.

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 $7–9B 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.

🚨ALERT: 50% of Data Centers will NEVER connect to the grid. Half of the data centers announced in the last 24 months will NEVER connect to the grid. Kevin O’Leary said it. The data proves it. While everyone’s chasing “paper capacity,” $CIFR and $IREN are sitting on EXECUTED grid connections that can’t be replicated. Here’s why they’re untouchable: 266 GW of power projects canceled in 2025 alone. That’s 2.4x the cancellations from 2024. Why? Because the U.S. grid is facing a structural deficit that nobody wants to talk about. • Data centers need 18-36 months to build • Grid connections take 5-7 YEARS (sometimes 12) • Interconnection queues in PJM and ERCOT now average 7 years • Average interconnection cost in MISO: $753,116 per MW Translation: You can announce a data center tomorrow. But you CAN’T connect it to power until 2032. The math doesn’t work. The timeline doesn’t work. The physics don’t work. $CIFR - The Fixed-Price Power Moat: Cipher control one of the lowest-cost power portfolios in North America. > Power cost: $0.027/kWh (fixed, long-term PPAs) > Debt: $0 > Portfolio: 2.2 GW across Texas But here’s what everyone’s missing: Their 1-gigawatt Colchis site has a FULLY EXECUTED Direct Connect Agreement with American Electric Power. Not “in the queue.” Not “under study.” EXECUTED. Energization: 2028. While competitors are stuck waiting 7+ years for interconnection approvals, $CIFR already has a Tier 1 grid connection locked in. And they just signed: • $5.5 billion, 15-year lease with AWS for 300 MW • 10-year hosting deal with Google/Fluidstack for 168 MW That’s $8.5 billion in contracted lease payments for AI infrastructure. $IREN - The Microsoft Validation: $IREN didn’t just secure power. They secured the ONLY thing that matters: a hyperscaler willing to pre-pay billions. November 2025: $9.7 billion AI Cloud contract with Microsoft. Let me repeat that. Microsoft PRE-PAID for capacity that doesn’t exist yet. Deal structure: • 200 MW of liquid-cooled AI capacity • $1.94 billion annual recurring revenue (once online) • 20% prepayment to fund $5.8 billion GPU purchase from Dell • Four “Horizon” data centers at their 750 MW Childress campus But the real alpha? Their 2.91 GW portfolio of GRID-CONNECTED power. Not speculative. Not “in the queue.” Connected. Energized. Operating. > Sweetwater 1: 1.4 GW (energization accelerated to April 26) > Childress: 750 MW (operating) > Prince George: 160 MW hydro (23k GPUs for AI) $IREN is scaling to $3.4 billion in AI Cloud ARR by end of 2026 using only 16% of their total power capacity. The Peer Comparison Nobody’s Talking About: Everyone’s excited about $RIOT, $MARA, $CORZ, and $WULF. Here’s the problem: $RIOT: 1.7 GW portfolio, mostly Bitcoin-focused. 25 MW HPC lease with AMD ($311M over 10 years). That’s 1/30th the size of IREN’s Microsoft deal. $MARA: Building “behind-the-meter” natural gas generation to BYPASS the grid entirely. Smart strategy, but they’re starting from scratch. 1.8 GW capacity, mostly mining. $CORZ: $10B+ contract with CoreWeave sounds massive. But they’re CONVERTING old mining infrastructure. Not purpose-built for AI. Currently unprofitable. $WULF: 750 MW at Lake Mariner. Zero-carbon hydro/nuclear. Clean energy story is strong. But only 72.5 MW of HPC capacity by Q2 2025. Meanwhile: • $CIFR has 2.2 GW with executed grid agreements and $8.5B in hyperscaler contracts • $IREN has 2.91 GW of energized capacity and a $9.7B Microsoft deal The Cooling Bottleneck: Secured power means NOTHING without secured cooling. November 2025: CyrusOne data center in Illinois went down for 10 hours because ONE chiller failed. This facility handles TRILLIONS in CME trading volume. Energy, agriculture, crypto derivatives markets frozen globally. Why? Because AI racks now consume 600 kW of power (enough to power 500 homes). A single rack failure creates catastrophic heat buildup. $IREN’s solution: Liquid-cooled infrastructure at all Horizon facilities. $CIFR’s solution: Turnkey air-and-liquid cooling delivery for AWS. Hyperscalers aren’t paying billions for “power connections.” They’re paying for THERMAL RELIABILITY. The Numbers That Matter: > PJM capacity prices: 10x increase from 2024 to 2025 (extreme scarcity signal) > Interconnection costs in Louisiana/Missouri: $900,000+ per MW > $64 billion in U.S. data center projects blocked or delayed in 2024-2025 > 25+ major data center projects canceled in 2025 alone The grid is saturated. The timeline is broken. The infrastructure doesn’t exist. But $CIFR and $IREN? They already own the infrastructure. They already have the grid connections. They already have the hyperscaler contracts. The Bottom Line: > AI demand is doubling every 90 days. > Grid capacity takes 5-7 years to build. > You can’t close that gap with announcements. You close it with EXECUTED agreements and ENERGIZED megawatts. $CIFR: $0.027/kWh power, $8.5B in contracts, 1 GW Tier 1 grid connection $IREN: $9.7B Microsoft deal, 2.91 GW energized portfolio, $3.4B ARR target by 2026. While half the industry fights over interconnection queues, these two are already plugged in. The power crunch isn’t coming. It’s here. And the only winners will be the ones who secured their megawatts BEFORE the grid broke. Bullish $CIFR and $IREN. Note: This is NOT financial advice.

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. Come join Milk Road Pro for our full breakdown, the complete neocloud competitive landscape, how to think about Nebius's valuation versus CoreWeave and AI entire thesis. Link below.

The neocloud category may be the most misunderstood corner of the AI trade because the market still treats these names as one uniform GPU-hours bet when they are actually very different business models: 1. $NBIS (Cloud Utility for the Agentic AI Age) $NVDA just chose Nebius as an architecture partner for the agentic AI era by co-designing AI factories with them, and the Rubin GPU access that comes with this partnership means Nebius gets the next-generation inference stack before almost anyone else in the market. At a $28B market cap, a 5GW power target and Nvidia’s engineering team embedded in the stack.. this is my favorite name in the neocloud category. 2. $IREN (Energy-to-Compute Engine of the AI Era) The dilution fear is real but the market is misreading it. IREN is not diluting to survive but diluting to scale into a $3.7B ARR target and the $9.3B in funding already secured through customer prepayments and GPU financing means the $6B ATM is optionality capital. The real bottleneck in AI infrastructure right now is power and IREN controls ~4.5GW of secured capacity while needing only ~500MW to support its ARR target by year-end. That 10x ratio of power capacity to near-term need is something no competitor can replicate quickly. 3. $CIFR (Landlord of the AI Utility Era) Cipher is not a pure neocloud but is a hyperscale infrastructure landlord signing decade-long leases to $AMZN AWS and $GOOGL while they fill the shells with compute. The AWS lease alone is expected to generate ~$700M in average annualized NOI for the next decade at nearly 100% NOI margins. Power-rich land is the scarcest resource in AI infrastructure and Cipher controls it with 600MW fully contracted, both facilities fully funded through non-recourse fixed-rate project debt and a 3.4GW development pipeline. 4. $CRWV (The Fragile Giant) CoreWeave’s demand backlog and revenue growth are very real but none of that matters if the capital markets close for even one quarter. Interest expense hit $388M in Q4 and management guided Q1 2026 interest expense to ~$550M which implies an annualized run rate above $2B before a single new data center comes online. The bull case requires capital markets to stay open, rates to cooperate, hyperscalers to honor take-or-pay contracts in full and construction to stay on time. That is a lot of dependencies in a macro environment where oil is approaching $100 and private credit is already showing signs of stress.

Jensen Huang just told you exactly which AI bottleneck never goes away and it points directly to one of the best trades in the market right now. He did not say chip bottlenecks are permanent. He said the opposite, more chip capacity is a two to three year problem, more CoWoS packaging capacity is a two to three year problem, and none of the manufacturing constraints currently limiting Nvidia's ability to ship are structural barriers that cannot be solved. What he said is permanent or at least, far harder to solve is energy. You cannot build AI factories, reindustrialize the United States or build robots and next-generation compute without energy and energy does not respond to large purchase orders the way foundry capacity does. It involves regulatory timelines, grid interconnection queues, permitting cycles, and national policy decisions that no single company can accelerate regardless of how much capital they deploy. The US is staring down a 19 gigawatt power gap by 2028, and PJM launched an emergency integration plan earlier this year just to handle current data center load, not future load, current load. Nearly half of the data centers planned for 2026 are already delayed or canceled not because of chip shortages but because of transformer shortages, switchgear backlogs and grid capacity constraints that have nothing to do with silicon. This is the exact environment that makes Nebius a structurally differentiated position. While every other AI cloud buildout is fighting the same power bottleneck Jensen described, Nebius has already secured over 2 gigawatts of contracted power capacity with a 1.2 gigawatt campus in Missouri, another 310 megawatts in Finland and a Pennsylvania site adding another 1.2 gigawatts to the pipeline. Power is the constraint Jensen says no one can shortcut and Nebius has already locked in more of it than almost any independent AI cloud operator on the planet. That power moat sits underneath a $27 billion contracted revenue deal with Meta, a Microsoft partnership ramping to full run rate in 2027, and a 684% year over year revenue growth number that just printed in Q1. The Nebius thesis was always about infrastructure scarcity in a world of accelerating demand, Jensen just confirmed on camera which scarcity actually matters long-term, and it is exactly the one Nebius spent the last two years solving before anyone else was paying attention. Milk Road Pro called Nebius early, has been sitting on a massive gain on the position, and continues to track the infrastructure plays that matter before they become obvious to the rest of the market, come join us at the link in bio/below!
