Four of the largest names in AI infrastructure share one customer.

That customer has now filed to go public.

The question for client conversations: whose growth is being underwritten, and by whom?

GOOGL — Competes with Anthropic, yet holds $115B of its commitments

AMZN — Layoffs and $110B of compute commitments, same ledger

MSFT — 60,000 buyouts alongside $45B of Anthropic compute commitments

AVGO — $161B of backlog, the largest single commitment

ANT — An $80.7B loss, yet $3.9B in positive operating cash flow

Read together, the suppliers’ revenue visibility and the customer’s valuation may be the same number viewed from two sides.

Which side of that ledger is the market actually pricing?
