Big Tech Off-Balance Sheet Concerns
Big Tech’s $3 trillion AI commitments are disclosed and largely long-dated, with nearly 60% of Amazon’s $650 billion commitments falling after 2030.

@Ross__Hendricks @DratchCap @WarrenPies Equity is abundant even while absolute debt issuance skyrockets. I would think prudent capital allocators would tap the former… (see $GOOG, $ORCL as of late)
Jensen is clearly very smart, and I think he was wise to seed the neocloud industry ($NVDA customers) to help offset the dominance of the hyperscalers (ASIC customers). But that doesn’t change the competitive reality that he has to use $NVDA’s balance sheet to buy business… (and his customers are doing the same with their balance sheets)
@UnderlyingValue Yeah, they've mostly come through with what they said they would do over the years. They're also non-promotional. The operating leverage in the model is substantial. A comp just went bankrupt. Some good stuff here. Thanks to @OlivierColombo for pitching $LEAT to me in 2019.
Lots of information arbitrage homework to do this weekend… $LEAT is probably my favorite set up right now from the latest batch of Delta Sheets.. Also closely watching $PRPO sales/scale expansion strategy. https://t.co/jsup7PKOb7
@davey_juice @taobanker I own both. $NU seems inevitable. $INTR more execution and single-market risk but a lot more upside if it works and gets rerated.
@taobanker $INTR at 1.2x book 5.5x '27 earnings with a 16% ROE growing at 20% a year probably qualifies. But yes, $BLX is incredible and I still kick myself for selling most of my position at $25 after buying at $15. Grabbed defeat from the jaws of victory there.
