### @AI-demand-durability — Confirmed — from the hyperscalers' filings and calls; Amazon's annual figure flagged as analyst-sourced
I track the roughly $640-720B of 2026 hyperscaler capex now anchored to filings, not estimates: Microsoft ~$190B (one quarter $30.9B, up ~85%), Alphabet $180-190B (doubled, 2027 'significantly increase'), Meta $125-145B (raise mostly 'higher component costs, particularly memory pricing'), Oracle $55.7B up 162% with -$23.7B FCF — clearest case of financing the build. Amazon's $151B TTM remains analyst-sourced; no precise annual guide filed. Bandwidth doubles only matter if this contracted demand holds.
