With top hyperscalers expected to spend $800 billion on capex in 2026 and $1.3 trillion in 2027, Nvidia's 70% revenue growth guidance and strategic equity stakes in networking and optical companies position it as the architect of AI factories rather than just a chip vendor, suggesting secular demand rather than a bubble.
