喊慢归喊慢,单子照签。
Anthropic 和 Rum Group 签了 6 年 137 亿美元算力协议。
Rum Group 什么来头?社交媒体起家,和特朗普政府走得很近。
Claude Code 和 Cowork 需求爆了,先抢卡再说。
Lambda 350 亿、Nscale 450 亿之后,Anthropic 今年第 N 单。
Unitree, China's humanoid leader, is set to IPO this month at a $9B valuation! (~$6.2B originally per March filing).
Derivative markets are pricing open at an implied $36.04B MC, roughly ~4X listing price.
$CCXI / Agility Robotics, the first US publicly listed pure play humanoid leader, is also going public later in Q4, at a ~$2.5B pre-money valuation.
It will be interesting to see how markets price in America vs. Chinese Humanoid leaders.
$LITE CEO Michael Hurlston at the RAISE Summit warned that the supply gap for InP lasers for AI DCs:
Is facing a more severe supply chain crisis than memory.
And with Lumentum's 5 InP fabs, shipments would be more than 30%+ below customer demand.
This is especially visible with EMLs today but is already expanding to CW, especially as CPO ramps.
I've always been a fan of the laser chokepoint + bottleneck from $AAOI, $SIVE, $LITE, and $COHR. And glad this thesis is starting to see validation.
