Technology Adoption Cycles: The AI Capex Spending Tsunami

Описание: Over the past decade, the “Magnificent 7” stocks grew rapidly by operating relatively asset-light businesses. But today, these same companies are allocating unprecedented amounts of capital to chips, servers, data centers, electricity, real estate, and AI infrastructure. My goal in this video is to give you clear context around these spending trends, how they compare to past investment cycles, and why investors are raising new questions about sustainability and long-term returns.

What if I told you the shape of today’s economy might explain why some Americans feel prosperous while others feel like they are falling behind? In this episode of Stock Talk, I break down why economists are calling this a K shaped recovery and what that really means for consumers, workers, and long term investors.

Over the years, commentators have tried simplifying economic cycles with shapes like V or W. But what we are experiencing today looks very different, and the divergence in outcomes between groups is becoming clearer every month.

In this week’s discussion, I share what I’m hearing from hundreds of corporate earnings calls, how spending patterns are shifting, and what these changes might signal for markets going forward. My goal is to provide a calm, educational perspective so you can better understand the environment you are planning and investing in.
