Hyperscaler capital expenditure surge to $1.4 trillion by 2028

AI datacenter buildout will drive massive hyperscaler spend while optical and memory suppliers trade at modest revenue multiples
Wall Street forecasts aggregate hyperscaler capital expenditure approaching $1.4 trillion in 2028 as AI workloads scale. Optical transceiver and high-bandwidth memory suppliers that sit in the physical layer of that buildout can re-rate if revenue growth tracks capex without multiple expansion already priced in.
| Instrument | Side | Target | Reason |
|---|---|---|---|
| AAOI | Long | Datacenter optical connectivity demand rises with AI cluster scale; a sub-7x next-twelve-months sales multiple leaves room for earnings and multiple catch-up if hyperscaler orders materialize through 2028. | |
| MU | Long | High-bandwidth memory is a binding constraint for AI accelerators; sustained hyperscaler capex should lift bit demand and pricing power for leading DRAM and HBM producers trading below peak-cycle expectations. |
