🚨 The AI trade isn't dying—it's getting stronger behind the scenes. If you ignore the stock price reactions and actually read the earnings calls, one message is crystal clear: The biggest AI companies are still spending billions because demand keeps outpacing supply. Here are the biggest takeaways: • Microsoft plans to spend over $175B on AI infrastructure while still targeting positive free cash flow. Customer demand continues to exceed available capacity, and next quarter's capex is expected to top $50B. • Meta raised the lower end of its capital expenditure guidance and said AI computing capacity will remain tight for the foreseeable future. In fact, demand for compute is so strong that it has received bids at significant premiums for its capacity. The common theme? There still isn't enough AI infrastructure to meet demand. That doesn't sound like an industry that's slowing down. It sounds like one that's still in the early stages of a massive buildout. The recent AI sell-off feels increasingly disconnected from what the companies themselves are saying. The fundamentals haven't weakened—if anything, they're becoming even stronger. Sometimes the loudest signal isn't the market's reaction... it's what the businesses are actually doing. #DailyOrbit
