📉 AI Infrastructure / Semis

• $ORCL looks exposed to a classic AI capex squeeze. FY2027 capex net cash outflow is guided at about $70 billion, and customer prepayments plus timing gaps may imply even higher CapEx. Financing pressure is also scaling: FY2027 financing is planned at about $40 billion, including the previously announced $20 billion ATM equity offering. No surprise the stock traded down more than 10.5% after hours. 1

• #AXTI remains a high-risk setup because China’s indium phosphide / InP export controls can directly threaten AI data-center deployment. Supply-chain policy risk is the core reason to stay conservative on the name. 2

• Ayar Labs / SIVE does not yet look like a clear winner. At Computex, SIVE was framed more as one option among several, not a must-have dependency. The missing piece is still third-party or authoritative proof that SIVE is better than competing solutions. 3

• $TSM next-gen CoPoS is shaping up as the packaging path for ultra-large AI chips beyond the 9.5x reticle-size class, with mass production reportedly expected in 2H28. $NVDA Feynman could be an early adopter. The key nuance: glass and ABF may coexist in the substrate stack rather than one fully replacing the other. 4

• SK Hynix is treating AI memory demand as a long-cycle capacity race. Wafer capacity is planned to double within five years and triple by around 2034, backed by four new fabs in South Korea. The read-through is simple: HBM is still one of the biggest AI-infra bottlenecks. 5

🧩 Consumer Crypto / Prediction Markets

• Bagel is positioned as the mobile, dumbed-down version of Polymarket. The product strips away the friction of on-chain prediction markets and turns betting into a few-second mobile app flow. No wallet. No complex crypto UX. That is the real wedge. 6

💸 ETF / Income Strategy

• Covered-call ETFs still need to be judged against plain beta. With nearly half the year gone, the benchmark setup is S&P 500 +6% and Nasdaq +13%. The cited YTD results: GPIQ +11.5%, QQQI +6.7%, GPIX +6.3%. The takeaway: some income ETFs are keeping up with or beating the S&P, but still lagging Nasdaq beta. 7
