Episode notes
CoreWeave Is Becoming Multi-Customer
- CoreWeave adding Meta (and OpenAI) suggests it's becoming a multi-customer AI infrastructure player rather than dependent on Microsoft alone.
- The market reads this as evidence of a more durable business model for specialized AI cloud providers.

- Large multi-year compute deals (eg. $14.2bn to 2032) require heavy upfront capital, chips, and likely more debt from suppliers.

- Demand for AI chips drives a second-derivative rally in semiconductor capital equipment suppliers.
- Companies like Lam Research and Applied Materials benefit as fabs scale to meet AI chip needs.
