Nauti's Take
A 45 percent jump shows demand for AI hardware rests on paid orders, not announcements, so the upside for suppliers and data center builders stays intact. The catch is concentration: a single foundry in Taiwan remains the industry's largest unresolved risk.
Anyone planning hardware or cloud capacity should keep lead times and pricing on the conservative side.
