$META Meta beat at $64.6B against a $63.3B estimate and guided to $73B to $76B. The new non voting share class funds AI capex without diluting founder control. The $9.89B charge took reported EPS to $3.83.
Meta boosted its capital spending outlook and announced plans to create a new class of nonvoting stock, part of efforts to escalate its already-stratospheric bet on artificial intelligence. Follow our live blog for updates ⤵️ bloomberg.com/news/live-blog…

About 50 gigawatts of new capacity could arrive in 2027 and another 60 gigawatts is already under construction, SemiAnalysis expects. The next limit may move from power toward chips and memory.
Is 50 GW in a single year too aggressive? "Dear Brad called us out publicly and cut our forecast in half." So Jeremie (@JeremieEO) and Reyk (@robotknower) came on with Jordan (@JordanNanos) to show their work. They go site by site from satellite and explain why haircutting the number double counts the delays already baked in. Plus moratoriums, 9-month modular builds, and why 2028 is the year to watch.

$SMCI The midpoint moved from $15 billion to $19 billion in one update. Gross margin guidance moved up about 2 points at the same time, to 12.0 percent to 12.5 percent. Revenue and margin rising together is the part that matters. Full results land November 3.
