Part 10 · A model, not a priceOct 5, 2026
Semiconductors trade at 17.1x forward earnings while the S&P 500 sits at 19.0x, so the sector powering the largest capex cycle in history is priced at a discount to the average American company, versus the same group trading at 35x two years ago.
Part 10 · A model, not a priceOct 5, 2026
Almost the entire move of this cycle has come from earnings growth rather than multiple expansion, unlike the run-up to March 2000 when the forward multiple on tech expanded roughly 250%, versus about 14% expansion since October 2022; a rally paid…
Part 09 · Eighteen months, or lessSep 25, 2026

Part 06 · Scarcity as a moatAug 25, 2026
AI data center buildout is bottlenecked by power delivery, not compute, since compute can be ordered faster than power can be delivered to a site.

Part 06 · Scarcity as a moatAug 25, 2026
