Summary
Nvidia’s blowout quarter reinforced that AI demand remains strong, but Marvell shares still plunged after its own solid report, underscoring a sharper divide in how investors are pricing tech.
Investors are increasingly rewarding companies that show AI-driven acceleration while punishing those seen as vulnerable to disruption, a shift that has also helped software stocks rebound after months of selling.
Among the Magnificent Seven, that sorting is widening: Amazon has gained 15% in a month and Nvidia 10%, while Alphabet has fallen 15% from its May peak, erasing about $692 billion in value.
Capex is the next fault line, with hyperscaler spending expected to top $1 trillion in 2027 even as investors question whether some projects will earn returns or can even be executed.

As Wall Street punishes tech giants for massive AI spending, will physical power grid bottlenecks ultimately burst the trillion-dollar infrastructure bubble?
With tech giants bleeding cash on infrastructure, which hidden engineering firms are quietly profiting from the desperate race to power AI data centers?
Beyond the hyperscalers, how will the multi-billion dollar rise of sovereign AI reshape global technological dominance by the end of the decade?
