Data center hardware renaissance: every layer (memory, PCB, networking, power, fiber) innovating, ASPs and margins rising

AI workloads growing 10x/year push all hardware to physical limits, reversing decades of commoditization: HBM memory (10-chip stacks), 40-layer PCBs, annual Ethernet upgrades (vs 7-year cyc…

Public Markets & Valuationtailwindscore 8/10alex

Structural endowment underweight of mega cap tech creates alpha opportunity in leader-takes-most digital economy
