For the first time, more money is going into running AI than building it. What that means for Nvidia (NVDA), Broadcom (AVGO), Marvell (MRVL) and AMD
Inference, running AI models, now costs more than training them, and that rewards custom chips and memory over raw GPUs. Here's what it means for Nvidia, Broadcom, Marvell, AMD and Micron.

I let Claude AI trade $100 on Robinhood week 9: it wrote down why indie Semiconductor (INDI) was a bad buy, then bought it
Claude AI flagged the indie Semiconductor (INDI) setup as the shape of most of its past losses, bought it anyway, and was stopped out 23 hours later. Both stops fired within two seconds of Tuesday's open as chip stocks sold off. The account is down about a third.

An AI model trains across 100,000 chips that all have to talk at once. The stocks that wire them: Arista (ANET), Broadcom (AVGO), Coherent (COHR) and Astera Labs (ALAB)
Tens of thousands of GPUs have to act like one machine, and the network that connects them is a fast-growing slice of every AI buildout. Here's what Arista, Broadcom, Marvell, the optics makers and Astera Labs each do.

The AI trade rotates to a new sector every week. Which one is it going to be this week?
The AI trade has rotated by sector almost every week: software, then photonics, then memory. So which corner of AI runs next? I make the case for the one group that keeps riding along without ever leading.
Anthropic is building AI chips and paying up to $850,000 to teach Claude how to design them.
Anthropic confirmed Wednesday it is building an in-house Custom Silicon team for Claude, the first time it has said so publicly. The job listings pay $320,000 to $485,000 for the chip designers and $500,000 to $850,000 for the researcher teaching Claude to do the design work.

Inside the AI hardware stack, from Nvidia's chips to the grid that powers them
An AI data center is seven layers of hardware: GPUs, memory, storage, CPUs, networking, manufacturing, and power. Here's the full map, with the public companies behind each layer and where the bottlenecks actually are.
